Abstract: Sector is considered suitable for one's settlement in life.The prime reason is that, the job would be secured, and salary would be credited regularly in the month-end.Consequently, every single person loses his/her own in-born skills and talents, and in turn is filled with anxiety and trauma from his/her pre-school days, simply to earn for their bills in the future through renowned positions.Eventually, over a period of time, he/she would lose their individuality and develop frustration in the job profile when forced to work mechanically in their secured job profile.These frustrations in the later part of life leads to high level of mental stress and strain.Each employed individual could possibly manage the workpressure in their initial stage of employment, however, as years pass by, it would become hard to confront the difficulties in their working ambiance.This could be reasoned to the age factor combined with the family and social life.A person in his/her fifties, in addition to the job-pressure, must also endure with pressure in dealing with the responsibilities such as looking after his/her age-old parents, children's education, marriage, financial commitments, etc.These stress factors are indeed the hidden source of medical illness and health issues. Reasons for stress due to familyOver expectations of parents: Immediately after a child is born, the parents would start planning about the education of their children.There is a ritual in Hinduism called "Anna Prasadam", where 6 months-old babies will be given sweet ghee rice to eat (feeding solid food for the first rime).During this ritual, the parents would keep pen & note, gold ornaments and toys for the toddler to select what he/ she is interested.If the toddler chooses pen & note, it is believed that he/she would shine in education, whereas, if gold ornament or toy is chosen by the toddler, then it is believed that the toddler would develop interest in artistic skills or sports respectively.Now-a-days, all parents want their kids to go with the "pen & note" rather than the other two.Parents are not much interested to make their kids as skilled artisan or a sport personal.On focusing only in education, various other skills, talents and culture found in Indian history lays down forgotten completely.Considering this situation, many educational groups started advertising that they have developed young mind learning program from the early childhood day onwards.The kids are put-up in pre-schools and academics even at the age of 2.5 or 3. Eventually, the kid develops aversion towards education.The parental over expectation is the prior reason for the child to develop hatred towards studies.
