DOES EDUCATION GIVE MUCH PRESSURE TO STUDENTS NOWDAYS?

When I think back in my past time,in my school time.I still can remember how happy I was spending my time in my childhood freely.I and my friend could explore many things by riding around my hometownwithout burden of homework that wasn't finished at home.Little story of my childhood is really become nice and unforgetable memory until now.Present day, the situation is completely different,even I still can see smile of students in their face but behind that at the same time I can see many burdens in their eyes. I know past situation and now have different problems to face,but do you think is it wise to treat our generation like that?Sometime curriculum in Indonesia doesn't give much space to students to exploretheir own willingness,creativity and human interaction.Everything should follow theories that is stated in curriculum.Don't you want to watch them playing cheerfully beside yard of your house just like your childhood?or you think that your nice childhood is a mistake that should not happen to the children in the present.
