FOMO!

It is not fear of missing out, it is a general tendency not to miss. One is always driven to do something if other people are doing that thing. And, this happens often for absurd reasons or no reason. Advertising and marketing agencies capitalise on such tendencies. The challenge for education is to make people see things in the light of objective utility. Does a thing or happening suit the person and their community in some balance or not? Or, are you helping with something? One must be trained to see things in this light.
