Parental Pressure

-








Parental Pressure is a compulsion that parents put on their children, to behave in a certain way to achieve a particular goal. This is mostly driven by various expectations that parents have from their children and their opinions in regards to the idea of a perfect life. This pressure when exerted constantly on a child can result in lifelong psychological damage. Parents that interfere constantly in a student’s academic life happen to influence their choice of career and their interests. This leaves little to no room for them to make their own choices. A lot of times, parents pass over their own goals and dreams that once they strived for to their children to fulfill. While this may promise a great performance under pressure, it chips away from their independence to contemplate over different decisions. Studies show academic pressure is also the leading cause of suicide among students. Teenage years are the years when a child goes through various physical and mental changes, excessive pressure upon children during these years can lead to burnout, anxiety, depression, withdrawal, eating disorders, cheating, and much more. In India, according to the world health organization, one in every four children is depressed. They suggest that parental pressure is the root cause of this. There’s a thin line between parental involvement and parental pressure. It’s very important to understand the difference between the two terms. Letting children express their own opinions and create their limits, will help them practice self-discipline in life and lead a life they’re more satisfied of.
