                 Stress on Students in Modern Society

Today’s world has set a tough guideline for students. Although some veterans may argue that there are more opportunities and prospects than earlier days, yet the demon of Peer Pressure and Parental Pressure leaves a telling impression on tender minds. Not just only in studies, a student has to excel in extra curriculum as well. 24 hours a day is split around his tuition time at various places. There is off course the attraction of a quick burger or a new film in the multiplex to add spice to their dreary lives. Bonding with the opposite gender (inspired by the tinsel world) is now seen from even primary stage at schools. Such dalliance of immature minds often leads to traumatic situations, as evident from almost regular reports in the media. Sensitivity and juvenile euphoria, tempered by abysmal stress, has even directed a few students to commit acts of folly and turpitude like molestation, eve teasing, drug addiction, suicide or even homicide. Indecision about the choice of courses to build a career, too much options in case of private institutions (all competing with each other to establish their brand value), parental shepherding towards the line of distraction, inability to cultivate one’s own intellect – all this make the Stress on students a bit too much to handle sometimes.
The case of stress on senior students is more acute and abject. Many an ambition is nipped in the bud as they have to toil for regular jobs after completion of studies to meet their ends. Even students from wealthy background have to settle for a vocation of entirely different perspective than what he has viewed for himself. Naturally, after a few months, they get de-motivated and grow restless. The stress of not standing up to his own vision drives him to an inert, mundane and barren life, shorn of thrills and frills which he has so painfully planned for himself for so many years.
