We live in a world where life is uncertain and we have to battle every day for survival, anything can happen at any time, if a person knows about some survival skills then the person can win the battle. Here I am going to mention the importance of survival skills. In my opinion, everybody should have survival skills like building shelter, first-aid, cooking food, making fire etc. Irrespective of several discriminatory factors, human beings should learn survival skills because disaster does not strike with an alarm. If humans know about basic survival skills, then they can come out from the worst situation.
Parents and teachers should initiate to teach the survival skills to the kids. We should remain prepared for all kinds of situations. We can take the recent example of the corona pandemic where some parents or kids were affected due to Covid 19 and struggling to cook food because nobody taught them. Why? Most of the people are having domestic helpers at their homes, so in this fast life, we don’t get the time to teach kids about making fires and cooking food. Do you know? A human can survive weeks without food or live in a temporary shelter but can’t survive without purified water. In case, we get stuck in a place, we should be skilled enough to find water sources to sustain life. There any many examples around us where we have seen considerate people help others by providing first aid in accidents, think if nobody knows about first aid will we be able to save somebody’s life in an emergency?
The concern is how and when can we teach these skills? There are many ways of teaching these skills. In schools, teachers should be trained to teach basic survival skills to students. They should assign practical tasks to their students so that they can teach others. Government should also put some effort so that everybody should get this training. A warrior can’t fight without a sharp weapon. We, humans, have all the skills but we have to be good at it and for that, we all need to learn and teach survival skills.
