My Concern to Students

As an educator, my concerns extend to the well-being of our students. Not only do parents and governmental bodies share this apprehension, but it's disconcerting to observe that students themselves often seem unaffected by it. I consistently emphasize to my students the importance of reciprocal concern; when others express worry for them, it's an opportunity for them to reflect on their own self-care.

Contrary to this principle, current trends among students appear to defy conventional wisdom. Tasks that require completion are often left unattended, while activities that are expressly forbidden gain prominence. It begs the question: are students truly invested in their own welfare? Many seem to confine their activities to the periphery of home and school, raising doubts about their genuine engagement. Similarly, while some parents exhibit genuine concern for their children's development, it's worth remembering that merely enrolling a child in an educational institution does not guarantee holistic growth.

In bygone eras, the desire for education was evident in children even when parents prioritized their involvement in domestic chores. Presently, the dynamic has shifted — parents are keen to send their offspring to school, yet students themselves often exhibit a lack of earnest dedication to their studies. Instead, there's a noticeable inclination among them to intentionally damage clothing or adopt non-conventional attire, despite the availability of suitable alternatives. Unlike the past when our predecessors fashioned garments from leaves and animal hides due to scarcity, today's youngsters are exposed to a range of options.

Unfortunately, modern children seem to assimilate negative influences more readily than positive attitudes, almost as if a predisposition towards negativity is ingrained. Their pursuit of success and recognition often appears disconnected from the concept of diligent effort. It's imperative that we address these trends collectively, nurturing a shift towards a more balanced perspective that values hard work and responsible behavior.
