Okay I haven’t posted in a while but its just because I have been busy. This post is about PARENTS
My parents and I know many other people’s parents are getting on their nerves especially when it is near our SC. Parents always think they know whats best for us but do they really? We are children of a newer generation and in a newer country. Its not that I am bad mouthing my parents fully. I know that some of the time they are correct and they do know whats best for us but I still think most of the time they are wrong. In this time, in our generation, we are born in this country and we have learnt from our experiences. We should know what is best for us now. We are grown up and should be allowed a lot more freedom.
As products of this day and age, we know that friends are important and should be a part of our lives and we know that the School Certificate doesn’t really mean anything. It is like our basic skills and my parents are racking up a storm saying that its important. The subjects that we do now almost always don’t even matter or affect any subjects that we will do in HSC’s or even in future life. They think every single test we do is important but is it really? Is some measley nonassessable task or random quiz important?
As part of the current generation of teens, I believe we get less credit than what we deserve. Our parents do not know what is going on because they grew up differently. They should understand that we are different from them and we shouldn’t be forced to grow up just like them. My parents and parents of other people are asians and they grew up in Asia where studying was everything. They don’t understand the workings of Australians. Sometimes a friend could be worth more than 100 hours of studying or maybe even some light hearted gaming. It could one day save our lives.
