Education, social dilemma and suicide

                             Education,social Dilemma and suicide

Life always leads to infinite possibilities .i consider 3"C" in life is the most precious elements .i.e choice,chances and change. Broadly it describ as , you must make the choice,to take the chance, if you want anything in life to change.

Life is so wonderful and very aesthetic. Still people want to end their life by committing suicide! In our country, a lot of women and farmers have been committing suicide. Sometime society think,its normal and sometimes think ,its their fate.now even children are ending their lives. This reflecting their is something fundamentally wrong in our society. And i see India's education system as the main culprit.
 
Perhaps suicides are not just a result of psychological or emotional factors. But has a social dimensions also involved.

Education and the examination centric education has a deep rooted impact in the student mind. As I'm saying, the psychological impact is very intense and it put pressure on them to take extreme step. Students are only focusing to get maximum mark and to clear the examination. They haven't learned any value, morality and ethics. The intrinsic value of self realisation must be introduced to the students for a better understanding of their Social orientation . The exam and mark base mindset has failed to achieve the true nature of education, that is to make a human being .

Carrier expectations and pressure has also performed a huge impact in the student mind. People's around them, like parents ,relatives ,friends and Society always had an expectation from them to climb the ladder of success .they want the individual to be an IAS officer or a doctor or to have any high profile job .these expectations put student to a high volgage pressure zone. some can bare it but some can't. As a fundamental guides and being a well wisher of the student, we as a society must realise the condition of the student and having supportive toward  him/her ,we need to stand and give them a free wing to fly. At the same time, yes we should share information to them on their responsibility and healthy condition .

Another important aspect is the rapidly changing family culture. Earlier a family has consists of  several members in a small or big house. such as grandparents ,uncles, auntie and also get in touch with neighbours interaction. Now we are moving from that hybride family culture to Nuclear family culture,  where a single mother and father have to take care of the child. Having a limited time for their child and as both are professional employees, they hardly managed to get interact with the child. As a result, children are emotionally inactive and won't getting any social value to take further. Earlier our grandparents used to told us many stories ,which has been the fundamental learning for us .but this changing family culture has vanished this fundamental teaching. As a result, we are making a robotics society without Any emotion and values.

Ragging is a very big issue among the students. Humiliation and insult led a individual to take extreme step further . Need to act quickly with the existing anti-ragging law.

Educational institutions often support the student. They put pressure for comes meritorious and tough competition among the students increase the pressure on high level .at such condition, this institutions don't give any moral or any helpful support to the students .the good students are in their centric zone and they ignore the sub-standard student .as a result, by not handling such pressure ,student act negatively and the outcome is very unfortunate.

The government should clearly commit to tackle the growing menance of suicide among indian youth. The government must understand a comprehensive study on the reason behind suicide and formulate a national suicidal prevention strategy.

Training teacher as gatekeepers and innovative method of examination should be adopted to mitigate the risk factor of suicide.

Student's need to be appreciated and it is important to change how indian society perceives education . Education should be a celebration of effort and not the mark.

Effective counselling centers should be set up in all school and colleges to address student anxiety, depression and other mental health issues.
Lastly we as a society and all the stockholders- Teacher, educators, parents and peer group,must build network of solidarity and communication to help each other .

                       Life is very specious ,please don't waste it .
