________________ each child would have seen atleast 15000 hours of television programs. In these episodes he would have seen atleast 15000 murders, an even greater no. of attacks, thousands of rape incidents and lakhs of indecent acts. Which parent would be able to bear to see their child emulating a minimum of only 1% of any of these acts ? The innocent child psyche is bombarded a thousand times with television advertisements claiming that aerated drinks bring fun into life ! Eating Maggi is fashionable. Smoking cigarettes is prestigious. Tobacco adds spice to your life. Not to be left out, the daily soap operas have avowed to display all the remaining vices. On the pretext of showing a good family life, these worthless serial stories which run into numerous episodes instead create an absolutely negative impact and boldly show illegal and indecent relationships. While the government or media may not think of the impact these serials will have on the child's and teenager's mind, shouldn't the parents of these children also not think of it's impact ? Dear Parents! Don't forget that your children's stature and ideals are directly lifted from these silver screens. The impact of these images is so profound that the poor child becomes what he had never intended to ( yet the actual criminals are never punished). Those parents who wish to imbibe virtues in their children should take this matter very seriously ( in fact, this is a warning ). Garbage In - Garbage Out ! This is a famous principle in the computer field and is equally applicable to the upbringing of a child. The output is the same as the inputs that he is fed with. m n Second Edition Second Edition
