What do you think this poem is about?

Balancing Education

Modern generation
Today‘s children
Only busy with them

Mobile phones
Television and games
But no ‘tele-vision’

Educated and intelligent
But less humane
Energetic and enterprising
But selfish to the core

Willing to slog, struggle
But not a helping hand
Want to live the life well
But no community feelings

Belong to the World
But not to their nation
We share the blame for
Not balancing education!
