| |9 NOVEMBER 2022HIGHERReviewour own jugado (eng translation) generation had. They look for information and ways on Google rather than analyze and think of a solution. Some responsibility for being al-ways there for our children and always trying to protect them by removing all the obstacles and not giving them the opportunity to face challenges also lies with us. Most of the parents insist on making the lives of their children so comfortable that they obstruct the learning experience of their children - the skills to handle even small problems, the skills required to interact, to think and find a solution.Lack of means and clear information and scarcity of re-sources had helped us to develop our reasoning and problem solving skills. We used to think of ways to solve our prob-lems. Millennials should try to disconnect with technology for some time and give time to their analytical skills. They should try to collate and analyze information and use ab-stract ideas to interoperate it. Generation Y struggles with feelings of fear and anxiety when they have to interact. They are less able to manage their feelings as technology has cut them off with their pillars of strength- their par-ents, family and friends. They are hooked to social media platforms like facebook and instagram for social validation and ego boost. The approval or disapproval of the follow-er, the comments and likes of strangers have become im-portant for Generation Y. Our Generation Y is well aware and accepts the fact that their knowledge and protective environment has hindered in developing their social skills. They are not well equipped to handle the difficult human behavior in various environments. Millennials- the future leaders, who have been raised with the access to information on internet, are more com-fortable with diverging opinions and beliefs. But they need the skills to bring different communities and people to-gether to face and solve the common problems. This re-quires strong interpersonal skills and critical thinking on their part, requires them to be inclusive, empathetic, agile and open to imbibe from the environment. The need to de-velop soft skills to be successful in todays' world is imper-ative. They have technological advantage on their side and are very good in interconnecting online but need to work on those very important soft skills to be today's leaders.Generation Y is well aware & accepts the fact that their knowledge & protective environment has hindered in developing their social skills
