Models pro and con

EXERCISE: Please answer the following by providing your own opinion (5 sentences)
Do you consider that these Scandinavian-model young people are truly happy and mature?
Why? Why not?

I consider that the Scandinavian-model young people are not happy and for sure not mature.
They are immature and this immaturity is the result of the NO education.
I strongly agree with the fact that these young adults raised in almost complete freedom
without using the NO word were happy on their childhood but lead to unhappy adults which
could not accept the NO.
Secondly, I consider that life without rules and limits can give positive feelings but only for
short time.
Furthermore

As a counterargument the freedom made them incapable to adapt as young adults in

collectivities where rules are to be followed and boundaries to be respected.
On the other hand, saying no a child is not retaining him from happiness is just preparing him
for life where not all can be obtained always and not everything is possible.
I strongly disagree that pampering a child is a good option, the child should be helped to
grow, let him have difficulties and to solve them by himself/herself other way will become a
spoiled young adult and bitterly disappointed that life is not easy.
