Hostel Life is better or Life at Home is better for ppl under 16??

by **CtrlAltDel** » Thu Aug 11, 2005 7:18 pm

never stayed in a hostel (even in college) so i cant say...

but IMO, kids < 16 shud stay at home unless circumstances dictate otherwise

I was a day scholar thru out my education. As my Engg college was 3-4 km from my house so ... I was mostly at the hostel. Never had to carry the books n stuff from home to college n vice versa. Hostel life was amazing then, but there are some stupid things during initial days that made/make life bitter.

I say a strick NO for kids under 16yrs sent to hostels.

Being strict does not necesarily help you to be disciplined. Kids under 16 yrs are sensitive and have to treated well. I beat up a hostel warden after I saw my friend blood stained clothes who was hit by him at the hostel.

You cannot force a person to be as you. He/she got a life. Let 'em choose.

hostel life = shortage of money = poverty

all money is donated to bars

Y closed bars when you are in the open air bars. No other place seems to be better.

oh okay

by **3 T'z** » Thu Aug 11, 2005 8:26 pm

I've also never stayed in a hostel but i dont think its good 2 send kids below 16 to hostel...coz at tht age they r still kids..n r v vulnerable ..dnt usually know the diff between wrong n right . Ppl think its best 2 dicipline kids by sendin em off...some of em just turn otherwise!

Apart from tht.. how can one b close to or bond with their family if they r away from em from such a small age..n well kids tht age r not tht fit 2 look after themselves.

But if the atmosphere is worse at home..then its surely better 2 send em off.

i have been in a hostel for over 3yrs now

although i agree that <16 is no age to live in a hostel, hostel life is very important. i can tell you that i have learnt more at my hostel than in the class rooms. it makes you a better person in many ways and i think that everyone should have an experience of it. the most important thing one learns in a hostel is to share and that is something i found missing in most of the ppl i know who havint lived in a hostel. i dont intend to generalize but ppl who have lived in a hostel are more adaprive.

I Concur with fl. Hostel Life will teach us how to stay away from our loved ones and gears us up for the challenges that Life's Gonna Throw at us in Our Careers or Otherwise. The ages between 16-20 is the age when we make friends who prolly will stay with us for a lifetime.And the Environ of the Hostel will Make that Frindship Bond even more Strong.

In my case,I have stayed in a Hostel for a year before moving out with three of my best buddies and staying at a Rented Apartment.And We 4some had become best buddies during that One year at th hostel.And We are still the best of friends after nearly 2 years and Miles in between us.

IMO,How the Student is Once he/she Emerges from the Hostel,Depends Entirely upon him/her. It is easy to Make Friends with the Wrong people and cultivating Bad Habits.And Since Most Students will be Expriencing their First Tryst with Freedom-Out-of-the-Home,it is easy as pie to get carried off.

Thatz where I wud Like to rietrate CAD's Point.If the Student has Imbibed Good Enough Morals uptil his ntry into a Hostel,he/she should face no Problems in Coming out a Prudent and Self-Made Man.

First things first. Talking, please avoid nested quotes. They break the flow of the thread. I am being nice this time, but next time you may find yourself amidst hell fire.

Second, let's get back to the topic.

Speaking from experience, I can say that the years I spent at hostel were among the best in my life. Who can forget those trips to the night canteen during winter surviving on one pack of tiger biscuit and a cup of chai, or the walks in the middle of the night, or those endless yapping sessions that started off on any of the worldly affairs but inevitably ended with concurrence on there not being enough of the female of the species to keep all the males interested, or the count down to the end of the semester that began as soon as the tests did, or the countless hours spent in the common room playing carrom or TT just so one particular shot could be perfected?

But most of all it was the feeling of being a part of a community, a community small and closely knit, almost like a large family. Some of my closest friends I made during my four years on campus, some of my heaviest crushes, my greatest achievements, my deepest sorrows - they are all a part of that life like patchwork in a quilt.

I've stayed in hostel for 4 years far away from home. Damn I luved it although I was homesick sometimes. You have complete freedom and great fun. Hostel life for <16 may result in spoiling them. You live with a crowd of your age with similar goals. You will have unlimited frnds. On the down side, the mess food sucks big time. Aloo, dal & Aloo everyday. Whenever the cook prepares chicken dish, we discover a street dog/ stray cat missing. Lived on maggie/eggs most of the time.

Good old hostel days! Sigh!
