In this contemporary epoch, the debate over whether or not customs and traditions have
become irrelevant has become controversial. Whilst some proponents emphasize that such
preservation serves cultural identity, I personally believe that nations' cultural heritage
requires amelioration for the sake of better relations within nations and families. In this
essay, two of the primary reasons why I totally agree with the need for a change in traditional
ways of thinking will be further elaborated.
To embark on, the first and also the most crucial reason relates to the fact that inherited
traditions have become an obstacle that hinders different people from various ethnic
backgrounds from socializing. In other words, if every nation tends to preserve its customs,
the world will suffer from global wars arising from the inability to integrate, particularly in this
digitized life where the obstacles between countries have blurred. This can be witnessed by
different social media platforms which permit such fast transactions of information between
various nations around the world.
In conclusion, it can be reiterated that not only does the superfluous preservation of ethics
worsen the communication among nations but this also occurs within families. Thus, I am
convinced that nations should eliminate old-fashioned behaviors while parents ought to
tackle this issue by attending children-rearing programs.
