Abstract: | The first cry we emit on entering the world is an indication to our parents that we must be trained to face our journey through life. From day one, an elementary such as food is taken at regulated intervals. With this control over the fundamentals to life itself, discipline infiltrates the young, groping and malleable human mind. As babies and toddlers we are innured to a life of time tables and discipline. This life-style is a natural preparation for schooling, i.e., sterner control and discipline. Up to the age of sixteen we are expected to follow the school's rules and regulations, and sit for examinations, but hardly make any decisions. On leaving school we are faced with our first trauma in decision-making whether to further our studies or apply for a job. Most of us baulk at this first major decision and are generally influenced by parents, friends or career counsellors. Increasingly, many decide to continue with studies, i.e., training for development. Normally, following a period of two years, the question, whether or not to embark upon tertiary education, must be tackled. An affirmative response is, again increasingly, the case. A more intensive and specific training of the individual now takes place, and carries him on into his early twenties. |
