In today’s world, many people have changed their minds and now prefer giving birth later in their life. This tendency can be seen frequently especially in many developed countries. Most of the people believe that it helps them to understand their partner better, before taking responsibility while for some it the time they can completely concentrate on their career.

The main reason is the living cost is very expensive these days and couples who have just lived for few years together are not financially very strong to support the offspring financially. Consequently, many people would rather wait until they get older and earn higher income and then they could be able to raise their kids easily. Secondly, there has been a considerable shift among people from raising a family  to making a career.

However, this tendency has brought about some negative impacts on the society and domestic life. Firstly, having children later can create a significant age gap between two generations. Parents, then have hard time communicating with their children, often creating family stress. Secondly, being elder mothers will have to face a high risk of physical issues in both the mother and the baby.

Overall, having a baby  later on, helps parents to contribute to the financial issue and create better careers for themselves, on negative side, it results in the wider generation gap and health concerns.

Cricket has become far popular than the national sports in the sub-continental countries.

What do you think are the reasons behind it?

---

 

Cricket, traditionally an English sport, is becoming increasingly popular in  Australia, South Africa and Indo-Pak countries. But this popularity is highest evidently in the Indo-Pak sub-continent for commercial and historical reasons. Strange it might seems, but it is a fact that less than 10% people are interested in their national game while more than 90% people consider cricket as their passion in those countries.

The main reason for the popularity of the game is the exceptionally good performance of the teams, apart from this sport sub-continent teams do not have any presence in world arena. For instance, people tend to support a team in a game which they play well. Since, the sub-continent teams like India,Pakistan, Bangladesh play better in Cricket as compared to national games, the crowd tends to support them in Cricket.

The second important reason is the media attention that cricket enjoys, allowing them great endorsements and help the cricket stars to be constantly in the public eye. The cricket stars are taken as celebrities and any win in the field of cricket is regarded as huge and celebrated with pomp and show.

It is inevitable that people would participate in sports that they are good at, enjoy and has international renown and that’s why the national and traditional games which is scarcely known to the rest of the world have lost their popularity while the cricket has acclaimed its own rights to the people of this sub-continent area.
