Education

Like Walking Through a Hailstorm

Outside the home, schools are the primary vehicles for educating, socializing, and providing services to young people in our country.

Smoking school children at their very tender age, taking dopants such as whitner used for erasing on paper writing, consuming - alcohol, chemical sprits, cough syrabs and smoking, pre marriage pergnancy at school level, abortion, immature sex, lesbian, gay, homosexual partners and transgender.......all kinds of unwelcomed changes are taking place in our society specially in schools. Schools are paving a new way for this kind of activities because of getting immense opportunities from various cultural backgrounds.

Students of this kind may face bullying, exclusion, and discrimination in school, putting them at physical and psychological risk and limiting their education. This is true. At the same time we cannot support their practices  and protect them from risks. In order to save them, can we support their habits inculcated. Never possible.

Think over it. How can we save these victims from their lifestyles and save our culture and heritage.

Only way is giving frequent awareness. Our awareness should not imbibe in them to get to know a new life style which they are not aware of.

¶ Leader. Leena Rai:  We can save if we teachers are not socialising with them at Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook, WhatsApp etc 

I noted teachers are promoting them to be on to these platforms. They are sharing their personal data with them and engrossed in foolish chatting. The condition is too bleak in rural areas where the students teacher gap is diminished and Sorry to add parents over there considered their son to be the head of the family if he attains the age of 13 or 14 even Gadgets, motorbikes and SUV's they are providing only.

¶ Archana: Kids imitate the actions and behaviours, not by listening but by seeing.

We as parents need to do an introspection of what habits and behaviours we want to instill in our children and that's where the change begins.

Times are changing so the parenting and school education has to change accordingly.

The amount of information we have today wasn't there but how we look at various challenges are still from the same outlook. 

As Teachers our responsibilities have increased multifold given the challenges in society.

How many colleges and schools are putting pressure on Government for changing policies because of Drugs issue? 

Most schools are aware of wrong things but what is the action?

How many schools are sharing actual reports with parents in PTMs? 

They showcase rosy pictures about child, do so much flattering, is this how we will initiate changes? 

The root cause of problems should be understood by us all to get to a solution. 

Without the change in society, how can we expect children to change in isolation?

¶ Dr. BALA SUBRAMANIAN: Parents should not wash their hands just by sending to school, tution Or home teacher and they may be in a right road and same way teachers also should do extra walk, not sleep just by sending diary comments. Teachers must ensure are the parerents aware exactly what's is going on in school campus.

Is really children attending school, or extra classes or evening tution regularly and are they collecting exact fees only or adding their own  GST. 

Be aware. 

Be aware. 

Be aware. Children if they deal parents only for ATM card purposes, it's clear home management or parents too need a schooling if not life teaches u(s) lot of unexplainable, unexpected learnings. 

If parents don't spend quality time to monitor, give guidance than what is the use of keeping high bank balance, for whom parents are working and saving money. 

Time to think the importance of children emotional care, emotional support.

¶ Priti Kaushik: We cannot blame the kids completely. Everyone is to be blamed, including the stakeholders. 

When we scold the kids, the human rights group intervene that teachers are not allowed to scold them as it would harm their growth. I would like to ask, haven't we all grown with the scoldings etc.? 

I think our all round growth and development is definitely better than the present kids. Then why this doubt? 

Teachers are the ones who give their all selflessly for the future of the kids. Even parents have a hidden interest in raising and educating their children I.e. they should settle down and earn their livelihood so that the children are not dependent on them later.

Our children get inspired by the western world and crave for the freedom like them and they are further supported by so called Child Psychologists, Researchers, Human Activists etc. But all fail to realise that the Western Culture is very different from our culture. The parents and children donot share the same bond as we do here. Hence in our scenario if no one intervenes, I believe that this generation can be saved.

So much spoon feeding is being done to thus generation that they cannot cope up with failure, often they go into depression, they are not able to survive without gadgets, get bored easily, short tempered, no patience, selfish, no core values towards environment etc. Pic is pretty grim.

This will lead us to NOWHERE ABSOLUTELY NOWHERE.
