The attitude displayed reflects a very serious issue on the
morality of society. Why are kids that young already picking up
that kind of language? Clearly there is something lacking in the
education system and not to mention, the viewpoint of modern
parents in raising their children. In a way, children are
increasingly getting pampered from both their parents and school.
For instance, in school, primary 1 kids no longer need to learn
chinese the hard way and can engage learning through a more
“interactive” way. The “interactive” often implies learning through
playing. Haven’t we heard enough of people getting obssessed with
gaming that led to suicides, lost in concentration blah blah blah?
In addition to that, kids to parents are increasingly regarded as a
family gem so much so they often get what they want. And in the
process, moral values such as compassion, caring are left out. Even
if they’re being taught, its almost impossible to associate
self-centredness and compassion together and the likelihood that
modern kids would choose self-centredness is sadly high as
witnessed from many incidents everywhere. Are we even paving the
right way for our next generation?
