Sir/Ma’am
Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, I wish to shed light on the
escalating issue of heightened stress among students, largely stemming from the
intensely competitive academic environment.
In today's fast-paced world, the landscape is rife with cutthroat competition. Children
find themselves constantly under scrutiny, assessed on various fronts. The
expectations placed on them by their parents are substantial, with the desire for
excellence in academics, sports, and extracurricular pursuits. The prevailing notion
often revolves around steering children towards becoming doctors or engineers,
inadvertently subjecting them to undue stress and overwhelming burdens.
Consequently, their entire day becomes a relentless cycle of completing
assignments and studies, leaving scant time for recreation and physical activities.
Thanking you
Yours truly
