Perhaps this is just my American culture speaking here, but I would not consider anyone who does freelance work to be a NEET. You are employed. Specifically, you are self-employed. And if it's enough to pay for your monthly expenses, no one should consider themselves justified in suggesting you're a "leech on society" or anything like that. I would even consider someone who plays guitar on a street corner for tips every day to be self-employed, and a productive member of society.

I feel like the whole NEET thing is more about cultural perception than the literal meaning. I live in Japan and I teach English part-time, but I also run online businesses that make more than salarymen here in Japan. Even though in the west, this is definitely considered as having a job and not "NEET", I have had comments from people telling me I should work more. Just because I don't need to go into an office and I have more free time. It's not about the result, it's about the process (kind of a trend for a number of things here). Not about if I'm making money and paying taxes, it's about if I am doing work and putting in the time.

Mental illness is worse than this virus. The pandemic is making many people mentally ill and some are leaving this world by their own choice. We need to change society to make work more of a place people want to go and work. Jobs need to become more of a social club where work is important but being with other people enjoying interacting is what keeps people motivated. Create incentives for people to work and the rest falls into place. But treat people like machines and they will eventually breakdown.

There's only one question I have. ト　stands for "to" right? If neet is written like this: ニート what happened to the "o"?

It seems that anytime there is an issue that needs attention and requires change in Japan, politicians say they need to do a "study" on the issue and while that study might or might not ever happen, usually nothing ever changes. Just look at the recent ruling on women keeping their family names after marriage. That didn't go very well. Same thing happens with father's rights in Japan and shared custody. The ruling party have no incentive to make life better for anyone but themselves.

I disagree. I think the primary responsibility a person has is to take care of his own welfare, before even thinking of taking care of another human being, be it a life partner or children. It would be putting the cart before the horse, to put yourself into a commitment of taking care of others, just to feel the sense of having responsibility. Happiness is the feeling you get when you have achieved your value. You can't reverse cause and effect. It's a bad move to put yourself into that position.

I see a lot of people in my own circle who took that kind of mindset, of taking on commitment so that they can feel the sense of having a responsibility, taking a mortgage when they are not ready, with the idea that it would force them to save and accumulate wealth, to have that sense of getting their stuffs together, which then limits their movements from taking a better opportunity in another city, or if they hate their job, find it hard to leave because of the commitment. This is why I say it's putting the cart before the horse.

I experience bullying first hand and thus i always reflect when i find myself doing something toxic, but it seems other people are more comfortable to kick a scapegoat around to feel better.

I think they just prefer to be in control of their own time, like most people who choose to do freelance work or open a small business etc. I think they’re just looking for what’s more in life other than what’s define by society, which I think is similar to how people choose to work for company who care about environment/sustainability etc.

Im a foreigner and ofcourse, im not like this before. It’s just that I don’t have friends here and their culture and my culture is so different that i can’t adjust yet (it’s been 2 years).Their culture is like if you don’t do the norm then you’ll go down and from where i came from is freedom. Actually i stayed here thinking that i can adjust someday and i can accept that i live here but when i think that i have no freedom here and the other youths like me that don’t have freedom whithout knowing it theirselves i can’t bear it. we live in older people way of thinking. I feel in here Whatever your reason is, is not acceptable if it’s not norm. I hope to meet a japanese or friend that can understand me. I thought pf having company too, it doesn’t have to be like neet company but a company that it’s not like a common japnese company. I will have rules but a company that we can be ourselves while working and have friendly atmosphere . Im still thinking what kind of company tho because i like to be friends with everyone not just co worker or professional relationship and maybe that’s the reason why i can’t adjust yet hehehe P.S. if its not norm they always have name for it and make it look like they are different and bad when it’s not P.S. i don’t hate japanese people, they are kind tbh but they don’t express theirselves and it kind of suffocating

I really wish from heart, that more people do not suffer of their job so much but love what their do in a positive and liked environment. Beeing NEET in japan seems to be very very brave in my point of view. I wish so many more people can have their own specialized job that makes them happy! Best of health to all of you.

amazing video , I really would like to meet a person like you in japan that has good honest opinions and opened to talk about without being biased .

Yes, this is a huge issue in the West at the moment.

Where in the west specifically tho , some western countries have it better than others , for example , id rather work in lets say a western european country than the US

I really wish this sort of group existed in Sweden. I need a way to get out and be around people, but I can't just "go to the library" to hang out with people. I wonder what will happen to me...

Perhaps you should be the one started this community, just start online basis first you might be surprised later. Who knows. Good luck!

I love this! I am so proud of them for doing that and not losing the fight to live a happy life. Good on them. Much love and I hope that through this movement they can find a way to get money and support themselves in a way that suits their needs as individuals. :*

Very nice documentary! Neet is a growing problem world wide. They share a similar culture in a lot of ways
