VOYAGE TO DISCLOSE THE BITTER TRUTH

                                                                SECOND PHASE



I do believe that schools play a vital role in molding us. Apart from textual learning, a child should acquire more knowledge about everything around him. However, the process of learning doesn't always take place in schools but also from the people we interact with within the house, neighborhood, society, etc. From everything there will be something for us to learn. A child should be guided or enriched with the facts rather than mere assumptions. He should not be oppressed by any sort of outside force. He should have enough space to explore his abilities or his talents.
 
                   Nowadays, parents are more focused on building a career for their children. Career is not something that should be suggested by others. Parents are a medium of support and proper guidance, instead of imposing their wishes on the children. Children should get a platform to exhibit their talents and to freely express their ideas. It's through their talents and ideas he/she should achieve their goal.

               

A child should be taught to distinguish good and bad; to respect others; rely on truth; he/she should develop his own moral values. He should know that every single human has the right to live in this world and that no one has the right to hurt or punish other beings. He should be properly guided instead of injecting poisonous concepts like gender discrimination and caste culture, they should be brought up following the fundamental rights.

                  We live in the same world with a common language to convey ideas and thoughts. But still we tend to forget this fact. Education is supposed to make us wise. Nevertheless, we remain blind by sticking on to the so-called patriarchal conventions someone set up decades ago. We still didn't analyze whether it is relevant to follow these any longer. Though our lifestyles are changing with the environment we remain ignorant in removing the irrelevant taboos all over.

                   The rapidly increasing cases of child abuse can be avoided to an extent by guiding the children properly. Instead of saying a big NO to your child who wants to venture out try explaining to them the reason for the restriction. If the reason is something related to the blindly followed concepts as mentioned earlier, then it is better to keep mum. For instance, girls are not supposed to be alone in the outside world. Instead of restricting them from their enjoyment it is necessary to wipe out the danger hiding in the darkness. Because at least once in a lifetime they should have to be in the world all alone. And it's our duty to prepare her for what she will face then.

                  So, then teach your children to respect others, care for others, and love others. Let them not stumble in darkness in spite of having the best education in the world.
