Question

Essay on today's youth is more practical and less swayed by emotions. Argue for and against d statement

Answer 1

Explanation:For the Motion

I totally agree that today’s youths are more practical and wise and do not get swayed

by emotions. Today’s young generation is very optimistic about their future and

ambitious also as they want to achieve and fulfil their dreams. They don’t mind

leaving their parent or friends behind in order to achieve their goals and fulfil their

dreams. Earlier mostly the sons would try to stay with their parents so that they

could be taken care of. But today in an urge to earn more money, they do not mind

going far away from their parents. Moreover they do not get carried away by

emotions and have a more practical outlook. Today’s youth has been able to balance

his/her emotions.

Even though today’s younger lot is considered to be impatient, their impatient is

because they don’t want to waste time. They wish to explore all possible horizons

and for that they do not mind going away and leaving their family behind. As

younger generation is connected with lots of social networking sites, their ideas are

more enterprising and they are willing to take risk. Their ideas are practical also and

their practical perspective leaves them with no time for ethical issues like ego,

arrogance, emotions etc.

Against the Motion

I don’t agree that today’s youth is more practical or non-emotional. Though today’s

youth may have more technological knowledge but they can not beat elders in their

worldly wisdom and experience that grows with age. Older generation can judge

people in a better and balanced manner as they have seen many in their life.

Due to their over practical nature, it puts them in more depression and hence suicide

rates are more common. Today’s youth is not balanced at all. In a hurry to get hold of

easy money, they commit crime also and get influenced from TV and cinema. They

do and act in such a manner in which they are not supposed to act. Being emotional

as well as impatient, they are unable to differentiate between right and wrong.

Oversmartness, shown by youngsters, very often puts them in trouble. Today’s

youth do not want to take advice from their elders as they want to prove themselves.

But most of the time they are proved wrong and ultimately turn to their elders for

their kind advice.

Technology has driven youth to many acts done rashly and as a result they have

suffered. The information explosion in the print and electronic media may give

more information to teenagers but it cannot make them worldly wise.

Besides being optimistic and rash, the teenagers have a tendency to follow the

dictates of the heart and are easily moved by the superficial considerations like

colour, looks or aesthetic appeal. On the other hand, parents take decisions on

merit, with sound time tested logic using their mind. They are therefore less prone

to error.

Teenagers must seek their parent’s advice and use logic before taking any decision

to save themselves from ruining their lives.

Answer 2

I support the topic the other way round! As a lad belongs to youth, I would wish to seek assistance from my parents before venturing into any of the activities. Why? Because they have got the exposure to all the areas of life, I mean the age phrases of life and they would help you get the tailor made suggestions for your improvement.

And I do believe, youth are fast forward and act as if like to reach Moon with the aid of Helicopter! I mean they would carry very less knowledge and stint and yet dreams of unrealistic things to achieve and they show hastiness in taking decisions which would surely harm the smooth life of themselves! Day dreaming is the special adjectives which could only be seen in the behavior of our so called younger generations.

Young people can sometimes be impulsive, but they can be very good decision makes as they often completely understand the pros and cons before they make a choice. They have better access and and are moree familiar with technology and the internet, so they are capable of making well informed choices. In todays society, youngsters understand themselves and their needs better than their parents or anyone else. If they have questions or doubts, they do not hesitate to get them cleared. They also have a better understanding of what they must do to get them the required result. So I think youngsters are more capable of making pragmatic and practical choices.

But we can notice that almost all the crimes done recently are by the younger generation after being influenced by TV shows and other technologies. Moreover the older generation have faced life and knows all the pros and cones of outside world. But the younger generation never seek their advice or take their words for

Young generation is more practical than old generation because of the advanced technologies and invention of new gadgets makes life more simple. But we cannot ignore old people also. They have one thing that we do not have. Experience of the life in this world. One can make any situation simple by using new scientific inventions. But practical knowledge is also important.Young generation can do more practical work with the help of old people's advice. Surely it's up to you to choose the right decision but you can consider their point of view also for they have seen and experienced this world and it's changes. Together if we go it will be wonderful. 

Yes, the younger generation is more practical in terms of living their life style, maintaining relationships etc. But this practical attitude can never over rule the learning of older generation through their own experience.

The younger generation wants to learn and then experience it where as the older generation wants us to learn from their own experiences.

I would like to raise one point that younger generation are more greedy towards money and thereby they result in doing many mischievous activities in the society. They never think like their older generation rather rush in to do any wicked activities for money. More than that many of the younger generation are ending up committing suicides due to their over practical nature and they keeps on thinking negatively about an aspect leading to depression. So what are your opinion about this ?

This is just a perception only. Each generation has been practical to the exent.
