The importance given to mental well-being is nowhere close to that given to physical well-being. Over the last three decades that I have worked as a clinical psychologist at the Student Wellness Centre (SWC) at the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay (IITB), there have been massive changes in the socio-cultural environment. Rapid and complex changes have been observed in students’ and parents’ academic choices as well as the perception and reaction of parents towards these choices. The impact of technology on students has been enormous.
