The hurried child syndrome

Abstract

When we look back to our life in 90’s, we realize that it was a kind of carefree & with less stress. We learned most of the things by outdoor play, group plays, simulation plays etc. We were given adequate freedom & exposure by our parents to learn things through plays & there was no any restriction & thus we were prepared to take responsibilities of adulthood. They did not hurry us to grow. We live in a time regulated society, where the focus is more on speed, immediate results and services, fast foods etc. ultimately this results in raising a hurried child.
