A paper written by Harrison Solow, which discusses the lack of effort the younger generations are putting into their "dream", as a result from their lack of knowledge. We, as a generation are under the impression that if we have a dream, it will come true, no effort is required as long as we know what were striving towards. Although i believe this article is bias, I completely agree. Society believes that as long as they have a dream, it will come true, this is not the case. I think children at a younger age need to learn that with a dream, comes effort. Your dream just doesn't come true, it needs to be worked toward. It's their parents fault for misguiding us into believing we can become anything our heart desires. Teachers also need to be more straight up on marking, to help the student realize if talent is there or not. Overall society has become lazy and misguided toward their futures, and this may be in result due to the age of which we are required to select our future. Grade 11, high school is the year of which electives toward your future must be decided, in my opinion way to early. Teenagers are quickly forced to choose something their believe at the time will be what they want to do. In most cases, they choose wrong, yet going with the flow because all other options have been shut down. Resulting in a child in a course or career he/she is not good at or don't like, impacting ones effort in life.
