Saol an duine óig (Míbhuntáistí, fadhbanna agus brú)

Ach faraor, is iad na fadhbanna na rudaí is mó a sheasann amach dom agus mé ag machnamh ar an abhar seo.

But unfortunately, the problems are the things that stand out to me the most and I am reflecting on this subject

Ní hamháin go mbeadh níos lú brú i gceist leis an gcóras sin, ach bheadh níos mó béime ar thuiscint an ábhair agus ar thaitneamh a bhaint as, agus nach é sin aidhm an oideachais i gcoitinne?

It would not only mean less pressure in question with this system, But it would mean more emphasis on understanding the subject and enjoying it, and is that not the aim of education in general?

Tá an ardteist dírithe ar fhoghlaim de ghlanmheabhair, seachas ar chumas an duine san ábhar

The leaving cert is focused on memory learning, rather than the ability of the person in the subject

Ba cheart don rialtas córas nua a thabhairt isteach

The government should introduce a new system

Caithfear é a leasú agus dá luaithe is ea is fearr é

It must me amended and that the sooner the better

is foinse mór brú iad na meain shóisialta agus na teicnólaíocht i gcoitinne i saol an duine óig inniu

social media and technology is a big source of pressure in general in the life of a young person today

Seolann bulaithe teachtearachtaí gránna chuig daoine leochaileacha agus is daoine óga iad de ghnáth.

Bullies send nasty messages to vulnerable people and usually they are young people

Ní bhíonn na híomhánna seo réalaíoch ar chor ar bith toisc na scagairí a usáidtear go forleathan

The images are not realistic at all because the filters that are used are widespread

Caithfear a rá gur malltacht úafasach ar an tsochaí é an cleachtas seo

it must be said that this practice is a terrible curse on society

Dá mbeadh maesúnú leanúnach i bhfeidhm

if continuous assessment was in place

Caifear ar a laghad sé abhar a dhéanamh, ach is minic a dhéantar nios mó ná an méid sin

At least six subjects are done, but sometimes more than that size is done

Ach in ionad daoine óga a spreagadh, cuireann an coras lochtach seo tuilleadh brú ar an duine óg

but instead of encouraging young people, the flawed system puts more pressure on the young person

Déanann líon mór scolairí mata ar an ard léibheal ar mhaithe leis na pointí breise seo a thuilleamh

A large number of students do maths at higher level to gain these extra points

Ni dhéanann córas na hairdteiste maitheas don dhuine óg ar chor ar bith

The leaving cert system does not do the young person any good at all

Téann siad ar ragús óil chun ealú óna gcuid fadhbanna

They go on drinking binges to escape from their problems

Ceapann daoine óga gur ag éalú ó chruathan an tsaoil atá siad, ach a mhalairt atá fíor

Young people think that they are escaping from the hardships of life, but the opposite is true

Fáinne fí atá ann

it is a vicious circle

Caithfear iarracht a dhéanamh iad a spreagadh agus a ghríosú

We must make an effort to encourage and urge them
