There is an article out about helicopter parents and the effects on their children. www.msn.com/en-au/health/medical/did-helicopter-parents-cause-the-mental-health-crisis-in-today-s-young/ar-AA18z90P?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=U531&cvid=65abfb51c3f541989bf701dc73e7b943&ei=17
And it made me wonder about the how we ended up like this. going back over the years from the formation of the baby boomer era to now or rather recently when we started to be more of an atomic family. Two kiddies and that's that, for the majority as naturally families come in all sizes still, but the majority it seems conform to the Atomic family parameters.
I'd say that the ending of WWii brought about a situation where we started the revelry with two traumatised participants. Both of them the men from the war were PTSD traumatised and the women were running the nation for that previous 5 years doing everything and I mean everything were then told to go back to your wash tubs and start a family for the nation. Trauma through and through. So revelry led to pregnancy and the baby boomers were born and as we all know the 1st born are told to obey the rules and then as adolescence hits knocks loose a few palings on the fence and slips through. The 2nd born's knock off the palings and carry on and then the 3rd and 4th knock the rest down and the 5th just say there used to be a fence here someplace or what rules.
They that witnessed the revelry from high school soon got amongst it and they shifted it in typical adolescent flavour by becoming the rebellious and we all like the fact they brought Rock and Roll to our daily radio lives. But the rebellious were seen by they at school still and so it carried on getting wilder and wilder all the years till the Boomers 3rd and 4th born delivered us the Summer of 69 with it's full on Anti the man mantra of "do your own thing in your own time man" They the 3rd and 4th born's were the 20 somethings and the 18 to 20 year old that made that show a world event. A shift to paying homage to self not community as it were.
This must have been possible right through the wars of the past I guess the baby boomers of the end of WW1 must have been the fodder crop of WW11 and thus didn't get the change happening.
However as has been said on many a TED talk about teens, they from the naughty nines onwards are effected by hormones and that drives us more than we ever cared to believe. Teens change from being family oriented to being peer oriented. This is the driver of the changes the brain incurs having the fodder not used being changed into Myelin. The Myelination of the tweenagers brain makes it possible for the synapses to have less of a rest time between firing, one expects making them sort of edgy and impatient as a result. Anyway it happens and they begin that phase of being Adolescent a mindset as much as anything else. That being the case one sees why making kids learn stuff like skating and piano add to the neural pathways that wont be considered spare and turned into the Myelin used in their brains
I consider teens to just be hyper hormonal and at something like 800times the year or so before the naughty nines hits that's a good cover.
more to come
