In this last month I worked with the young who participated in the Training Course to become future leaders of the sport , promoted by Lazio Region in Italy.
It has been a significant to me, because it confirmed that young people want to engage and commit but they have problem to achieve what they want, because they are also left alone without a guide. Adults, whether parents or teachers of the University, say, “Do it” but they did not explain how to be able to do well in an effective and efficient manner. You may be wondering why they have not yet learned, but the answer does not change. Even going back to teens the answer is that parents and teachers did not help enough to figure out how to improve and what it’s the process that allows to move forward without wasting time. Besides the economic difficulties certainly do live in these years, at these young adults have been added others that depend exclusively on the family and social environment in which they grew up. Their parents did apparently everything: a house and money for their expenses. But this is not enough, they needed this aid but they also need how to learn to study or why it’s fine to do errors but in the same to come back immediately to your path, or even if the technology (mobile , facebook , playstation ) is fine but it should not take time and energy to work. We cannot expect them to learn all by yourself, because then the years go by without knowing that you are wasting time. I think that in many cases there is not this mental education for lack of adults’ accountability, who are happy to just meet the basic needs of social life without to play the role of educator.
