Youth of India is more confused than confident. But today's youth is also confident than previous time. As youth is engaging more in sports that builds confident. And on the other hand they are confused in identifying their talent either due to pressure from parents side or peer pressure. Confusion may also be due to mob mentality. But as options are increasing, it is somewhere building our confidence.

I think we have more no of confused youth than a confident youth this is because they never decide the things in one time. We can talk about this whole matter with an example like choosing a degree is a very big deal for the youth nowadays. This Matter is the biggest confusing matter for them like what to do or for which course I should apply for. There are many engineering people who are now a social influencer or might be doing something different from their engineering degree. Do you not think this is the biggest concern?

You can ask this question to those people who are not getting admissions in engineering colleges very easily.

So, this is the problem that they are confused about what to do. If the youth of our country is not confused then why the many students after getting their 10th or 12th result commit suicide. This is because they are confused because they might be thinking that they are not acceptable in this world after getting failed in their exams. The reason is the youth of our country is not getting proper guidance they are not getting the support of their parents and finally, they have become a confused youth.

In my point of view, most of the youths are confused in India. There are many reasons as you all are talking about but one of them is their power of decision making. Which is very low because they are not prepared to take their decision own. From childhood, all their decisions are taken by parents. From here, either they become incompetent to take a decision (when they become mature) or they are pressurized to take a decision which is made by their parents. So that's why they get confused. Thank you, hope you have understood my point.

I think Indian youth is more confused than others. Because he has no liberty to take decision due to society. He has to do what society want. I think this is a big doubt for our development. He should take decision in odd circumstances. This is the only solution for it. Today many crimes are the result of confusion. He should take decision in his mind power. Today many youth do suicide. That is the influence of low confidence.

Indian youth is confused because the traditional education system is academics oriented. If a child is interested in Environmental Studies, he will devote his time to that subject and its research. But due to exams, he is continually under the pressure of scoring well, so that he can be promoted to a higher class. Doing what you despise is the worst job ever. The ways to nurture a child for his overall development, keeping in mind his innocence can be learnt from orphanages and various NGOs out there. Every child's dream is recognized there. We can't expect anything from the Government, they are just a group of people, solely in love with power, and money. Can a mark sheet decide our future, our examination was our Past, who knows our inner talent & skills in Present? Parents are not to be blamed, they have surrendered themselves to the current scenario; for admission in a good college, you require good marks, for getting jobs in a good company, you require a good college. And this can only happen when you have excelled in academics in your school.

Coming to the solution, Schools should be FREE from EXAMS. Children should not be burdened with unnecessary judgements because of marks. There should be assignments, but which only focus on learning, not marks. Youth must not be pressurized, must feel free to do what they really like, libraries and educational portals should be promoted. Seminars can be arranged by school authorities, about various careers, social problems, and how to make this world a better place.

And everyone should work on this-parents, teachers, even everyone participating in this discussion.

Because "if we want a better society, we must start from the Children".

Hey Everyone,

According to me it would be like Today's Youth is confident but they are made confused due to their situations and surrounding society and parents even. Though today's youth is confident on their decision they were not allowed to take the practical step to that and he is been forced to study or do something else out of their interest and this is why I said Youth is confident but it is the society and the parents who are making them confused. For example, A person wants to study environmental studies and do research to save environment and animals, but what parents and society gonna say is "what!? is that and all a prefession in which you get nothing ah! no money a useless passion!" This is gonna be the thing that is being said so from there that person is gonna get confused that is passion is important or running beahind money? There he becomes confused and starts taking wrong decisions. Even it is like some of the youth is also taking wrong decisions voluntarily like in life. Our Youth becomes confident only when the society and parents understand the youth's will.

Thank You guys!

According to me, youths are confident but somewhere they are confused. Youth have the willpower to do anything but confusion begins after 10th and 12th standard because students need to take streams in which they are interested or their skills can utilize maximum. So that they can become confident after their studies. Confusion happens when they don't follow their own choices and hear from others. Colleges help youngsters to build confidence and support their choices. Confusion is due to lack of job opportunities and communication skills. Thereafter students need to choose courses not for interest instead of for getting jobs which are having more opportunities in-country now. Students get confused on how to survive in this competitive world. But there is no need for becoming literate just for the sake of the name. I think a developed country can provide good job opportunities and hence increase the confidence of youngsters. Youth get respect and confidence when they have quite good communication skills and knowledge. Certainly, the government can initiate different campaigns related to career options for educated people which can help them to choose wisely. Youth have multiple goals in life but don't know how to achieve it, they need to set their priorities and prepare themselves for that. Nowadays, we have the biggest tool of social media through which we can reach different personalities. Youth need to follow a timetable and cut short time for mobile phone usage to the required to achieve success. We should think like a problem solver and when the majority of us will become an entrepreneur or will be doing good jobs, then we need to create jobs and try to generate employment as much we can. Every individual should have a fire for doing something for the nation to make it prosperous and beautiful again.

Given the rigid education system of India, youth no matter how hard they try to be well informed they end up being confused. Lack of fruitful seminars, workshops, awareness, the practicality of things has restricted their creative minds and a pause to their career growth. The time which they should probably invest in exploring and analysing what's best for them, the energy is diverted or rather say exhausted in enhancing academic results. Their choices, dreams have to conform with social norms, consequently, they end up switching from one career to others.

It's difficult for them to figure out what they actually want in life, what is that they aspire for? several questions with no appropriate answers.

More people more advices, varied advices which end up enhancing their dilemma. By the age they should be confident, supporting their family, contributing towards nation's GDP they are doubting themselves whether they made the right choices in life? Where they would be able to continue in that field for a lifetime?

Like, I said infinite questions, confusion.

Well, we can just hope the current changes in the education system makes youth more confident and pave way for developed India.

Hello everyone,

According to me, the youth of India is confident but at the same time confused, because of our education system and society. They are made confused by society and parents. Especially after 10th and 12th, they are not allowed to make their decisions. Eg if a person wants to make a career in sports, parents would not allow him. They are forced to do what they don't want to do.

And of course, our education system should be repaired or change first. Not always marks are going to be matter. School and colleges should teach practical knowledge instead of giving works like writing and learning questions and answers etc.
