By Aditya | Aditi
Children watch television thinking the reel ife to be real Whatever their "heroes do, they try to imnrtate
that in real life. Recently, some children lost their lives in their desire to have superpowers but ended
up losing their ives. The young kids feel thrilled and excited upon watching the anmazing stunts on
television. They fail to understand that these stunts are performed by speciaists under well- controlled
conditions.
tbecomes mandatory for the parents to educate their children about the harmful effects of aping these
super-human tricks and feats of bravery. They must draw attention of the children to the mandatory
warning dsplayed at the beginning of the advertisement/stunt.
Kids should be encouraged to indulge in healthy conmpetitive games of physical and mental skill under
strict parental supervision. This would help in proper development of the personality of the kids and
ensure freedom from the dangers of mindless imitation of stunts.

Their behaviour is becoming erratic and restless, resulting in family quarrels. The situation has resure
in physical assault in many cases. People feel like they are being chained within an enclosed space. Th
frustration and the burden of negative thoughts have turned then into ruthless beasts.
For those people who are finding it hard to deal with the current situations, there needs to be some
kind of help given. it can be in the form of providing online counselling sessions or airing informative
commercials on keeping good mental health over the mass media. Doctors should give advisory and
prescriptions to such people through television or radio.
People who are not able to sustain this lockdown due to the negativity around them need nothing but o
ray of hope and positivity. A healthy motivating discussion with such people would result into a better
vision of life for them.
