Why we should (or shouldn’t) follow traditions?

 Hi! Do you like traditions? Well, today's topic is "Why we should (or shouldn’t) follow traditions?"

I think we should follow good traditions. Let's say there are 2 countries, Blo, and Ger. Blo has a tradition where you play "rock, paper, scissor champion" And Ger has a tradition of killing all chickens every year. Most of you would think that we should remove Ger's tradition and keep Blo's tradition. It's just like that, we should follow traditions that are helpful or fun., and we should stop following traditions that would harm things or creatures. So let's use South Korea for example, we should follow the tradition of Han-Bok (Traditional cloth). But I don't think we should follow child marriage in some countries all around the world. So you get the basic idea, but let me tell you another opinion. It is...... We should not follow traditions.

Well, the first reason that we shouldn't follow tradition is that they are old. And we are living in modern life,m we should do things that we want, not things that our ancestor wanted us to do. If our ancestors wanted us to jump all around the city for a particular day, we don't have to do it if we don't want to. And most traditions involve or have old thinking, and we want new thinking. We shouldn't be using the same cell phone for weeks, we should develop them, invent more cell phones. That's what we should do for thinking too, we should think new things, develop our minds. And maybe they couldn't do it a long time ago because they didn't have enough information but we can, we have more resources than any human did in human history.

Another opinion is that we should follow them. Because they are knowledge built by our ancestors with experiences and their pieces of knowledge. We shouldn't ignore those traditions because ancestors didn't make traditions in just a second. It must have taken them ages. So we should respect how they made it, and think about why they made it. 

So the conclusion is that you can choose but I think should follow good traditions and stop bad traditions.
