Where all the fun gone?

How often you had seen kids of current genre enjoying the things they are doing even if the result doesn’t fall in their favor? Or how often we had see any one for instance just enjoying the act and forget the competition involved behind that?

Whenever I get time to interact with my cousins I only feel that even if they are playing with their friends, lot of competition get involved in that act.

I still remember my childhood, when every evening from 4-6 pm it use to be my playing time where we use to enjoy the company of our friends. There wasn’t any hustle and tussle to come first or sense of competition in that era.

Why every kid around the block has forget the biggest lesson of life that “winning and losing doesn’t matter, what all matter is level of commitment. That is what is in your control” Why now days everything has become the matter of pride and not just the matter of fun.

Where all the fun gone from this fast paced life, now days kids join the rat race well before they can even sense or understand the beauty of life.

Why? Parents keep pushing their kid to score only in Nineties why cant we have some good healthy eighties as well. Now days kids join coaching centers well before they can even learn to cross the streets.

They might not be allowed to climb the top self to get cookies but they are allowed to strain themselves like hell to score A+.

It seems that this is just the beginning ….we might see a genre where kids will say “A+” before they can say mom or dad…..
