kids grow up too soon....

Violent teenagers article from hindu.

though it might not be the best written article but it sure does bring up the point where this society is going in terms of bringing up the young.

kids r not kids anymore they grow up too soon. with all the available information or misinformation that is accessible to them. there use to be a time when the younger years were the formative years, the years to learning. where even the games we played or the stories we read were modeled on the fact that they will leave a significant impact on us. now everything is market driven. gone r the days when people would say that is more important to good man than it is to be a important man. now children r taught, either by active or passive means, that money is above work, seek material over knowledge, presentation is more important than the content.
there are years in human life that they need guidance and protection, and no better place than family to get this. we all can be individuals but there is a need to put relationships above individuality.

(rough sketch of my thoughts after reading the article.)
