Individualism seems to be a dominant part of American culture. Do you think this is a good thing, a bad thing, or some mixture of both

Answer:

I believe it is a mixture of both because Individualism is a good thing to have and learn but at times it can also make us feel like we have to be self-reliant on ourselves every day of our lives and it can get us really confused on the question of: Am I old enough to handle this? or If I don't learn how to be independent now will this affect me throughout my entire life? It can make us wonder if we are physically ready for life outside "The Home" & may make us think that we only need to be dependent on ourselves, that can also close a lot of trust in people who want to help but we think to ourselves "will this outcome be in vain?" But it also shows us, good things like how we can become our own person apart from our friends and loved ones, this may also make you have more gratitude in yourself for achieving something on your own! To sum it all up: Indvisualisim is a way for us to grow but it is also a thing that makes be more vulnerable to ourselves!

Hope this Helps! <3
