The problem today is not that youngsters don't have confidence.
00:03
The problem today is that a lot of youngsters who should actually be doubtful of themselves
00:10
have just too much confidence.
00:12
And that confidence obviously is very shallow.
00:14
So when life strikes them, the confidence is easily shattered.
00:18
And then there is depression and panic and whatnot.
00:20
But if you see, there are a lot of advertisements these days, social media, etc.
00:24
Public speaking classes, English speaking classes, personality development classes.
00:29
For 6 year olds, 8 year olds, 10 year olds.
00:32
And parents are rushing to admit their wards into such courses and classes.
00:37
And usually the ads will have an 8 or 10 year old standing in a very confident pose.
00:44
Sometimes even in a preachy pose.
00:45
Now you wonder, what is this kid so confident about?
00:49
What does he have? What does he know?
00:51
But that's the ideal of this time and age.
00:54
Confidence, just shallow confidence.
