What does freedom mean to the youth?

Strike a balance


Freedom to the youth of today means having fun and no elders checking on them. Only when they grow older do they realise the seriousness of freedom and the responsibilities that come with it. Right now, youngsters are just having a good time. And the parents are allowing their children to enjoy. The people of our country are basically conservative in outlook. This really helps. Because, in spite of this newfound liberalism, we are able to strike a balance. I travel overseas quite a bit. I must say that the level of general knowledge of our children is high, they know a lot more and are well informed about other countries.
