There are many facets to the words, "Standards", and I wanted to put this out there in the Costa Del Sol, due to recent issues I've ran across in life. What are some of the ones you've noticed recently?
In life there are many things similar, but when are standards a must in life? I found myself questioning why subsets of society are being standardized based on what society is pre-programmed to do.
Here's some Examples:
1) Go to High School
2) Date
3) Go to College for your Bachelors and Date
4) Go to Work
5) Get Married
5) Go back to College for you Masters
6) Go back to work
7) Get Divorced / Get on Medication / Have Kids
1) Go to High School
2) Date
3) Go to Military
4) Come back and work a blue collared job
5) Marry Young
6) Have Kids
7) Go to college
8) Work late to establish a goal
1) Go to High School
2) Go to College for Bachelors
3) Go to College for Masters
4) Go to College for Law/Med/Pharm
5) Date
6) Become completely independent
This might be subjective to your location. Though your location might be a minority of the society as opposed to the Majority. I find the most interesting people I have came across have had a little bit of all of it, but others are all about mixing up the standards. Though most of the times they are not narrow minded to which path you choose in life.
I know obviously if you are having a kid the meta changes quite a bit. You want your child to grow up in a good community with other kids. You also want your kid to be slightly privileged, but not self entitled like many of the millennials today. Though I also believe standards in society are hard to set. People though tend to identify closer to those who have assimilated with their same society.
Tell me some of them that you've seen.. Even as far as high school and the norms and abnormal society niches.
