On NEET Group

1866 views. 2009-6-11 15:26 |Individual Classification:Reflection|

 NEET group means those young people who not currently engaged in Education, Employment or Training. And now this so called boomerang phenomenon has become a social problem in China.

    I never understand why someone would prefer to give up their independence---their freedom for such a meaningless and shameful existence. I can’t imagine a single day which I could spend contently at home, out of job, without any income, and doing nothing about it! If I were in such a situation, I would fight tooth and nail to find a job---any job. Forget the job of my dreams, first comes first, I have to stand on my own feet, and then I can make some arranges for my future.

    We all expected  high for our future and had a burning desire to become something when we first entered into the society. We all suffered a lot---misunderstanding, frustrations even despair at the beginning, and we even might have to pay a high price for our once youthful thinking. The point is to learn our lessons and move on with our lives.
    No way we can jump at a great success over night. If we hunger for success, we'd better learn to start from zero. To reach the level we set, we must climb from the bottom of the food chain. There always is a long way to go before we actually achieve something. And it is true we might never become the person we really want to be. But all of them are not the reasons we could withdraw oursleves into a cozy, peaceful cell our parents have provided for. Because in this way, we would finally give up the most prized treasures in the world---the sense of independence and the courage to pursuit our own dreams. Remember, the opportunity would never knock at our door unless we keep trying. If we waste our time waiting, sooner or later we will perish in a life of failure, misery and sleepless night.

     The parents of NEET group should also be blamed for such a phenomenon. No matter how much they want to give their children everything in the world, how much they want to protect them from the cruel reality, as parents they should know it’s their responsibilities to let them go when the time is coming. A mother hawk would kick her children off the cliff, so her children would finally learn to fly in the sky. A father lion would drive his grow-up children away home and tell them: "I would bite you if you ever edge into my territory again, and it’s time to find your own land now.” So his children would finally grow up into the king of the jungle. Therefore if you ever want your NEET son or daught to become a responsible human being, take your heart to cut him/her off; if you want them to hate you, then continue to feed them until one day they finally bite your hand.

yeah we should never lose the sense of independence and the courage to pursue our own dreams, no matter what kind of situation you are in.

i think parents also play importan part. Love our children doesn’t mean we should give them everything they want, isn’t it? sometimes, love should also be tough

Can't agree with you anymore. Parents had better not spoil their children. Too much love will be a burden.
