Answer:
Growing Materialism among the Youth
By Sunil
The canker of materialism has spread far and wide; youngsters are the most affected lot. There is a drastic shift in values and their aspirations. They have become exceedingly selfish.
Gone are the days of brotherly, sisterly, fatherly, or motherly love. Youngsters want all their desires to be fulfilled at any cost. They are not bothered how they are fulfilled. They want to own trendy mobile phones, digital cameras, laptops, tabs, bikes, and other gadgets, even though there is no genuine need for these gadgets. For this they pester their parents incessantly. All ethics, etiquette, decency, and decorum have gone to dogs.
Where will this lead to? Will such an attitude be of any use in future? Will it help them in securing a lucrative career? These gadgets rather distract one from noble pursuits. The young generation should not be so materialistic. They should rather adopt and pursue spiritual values which help one in becoming a great person.
