00:03The problem today is that a lot of youngsters who should actually be doubtful of themselves
00:10have just too much confidence.
00:12And that confidence obviously is very shallow.
00:14So when life strikes them, the confidence is easily shattered.
00:18And then there is depression and panic and whatnot.
00:20But if you see, there are a lot of advertisements these days, social media, etc.
00:24Public speaking classes, English speaking classes, personality development classes.
00:29For 6 year olds, 8 year olds, 10 year olds.
00:32And parents are rushing to admit their wards into such courses and classes.

00:44Sometimes even in a preachy pose.

00:49What does he have? What does he know?
00:51But that's the ideal of this time and age.
00:54Confidence, just shallow confidence.
