All of this work we have to do is incredibly stressful. I find it almost unbelievable how we're all expected to have essays, standardized tests, and paperwork all sorted out despite the fact that we're all still children (well, most of us are, including myself). If only our standards weren't so high, maybe we all wouldn't be losing our marbles so much. It's hard to tell if we're heading in the right or wrong direction by expecting our children to take on more rigorous academic workloads and entrusting them with greater responsibilities. Maybe it's helping us catch up with the rest of the world, or maybe it's just hindering us even more. Who knows!
Well, either way, I've been coping by having excessive amounts of undeserved fun and break time. Woo-hoo! But like, also, oh no. At least I don't think I'll drown under mountains of stress...
I agree with you that it is so stressful and how we have to somewhat do it all on our own. Im glad im finally all done with that.I think by having to do all of this on our own then it will eventually lead us into the right direction in life but just like you said..owho knows.
