Smart Phones can Make Children Unsmarts

by Paras world School School in Gurgaon

I was never given a smart phone or for a matter of fact any phone not even a basic phone when I was in school. I got my first phone when I completed my twelfth standard. This never was a great feeling then but now when I look back into my past and those golden days of school life, I am fortunate to not have been given phone then. I would not be writing this piece today commemorating my school days and disgracing the present age in which I see the kids growing with their head tilted downwards.

The use of Smart Phones these days is a necessity undoubtedly but is it helping the kids? It is not. It is destroying the growth of a healthy mind by limiting the children to only virtual world. Virtual technology is very important as long as it is developing a mind to the expanse of brain development, if not it is doing no good. The get together these days is pretty boring as there is no room for fun chat or play time. Everyone is busy with their gadgets either playing or chatting online. I condemn this way of socializing; this is no less than anti-socializing. A parent is seen preventing a child from going out in the sun and play but are happy to bribe the child a smart phone if he or she does well in exam. Apart from parents and guardians, even schools and institutions providing primary and secondary education should influence students in taking up games and sports as a mandatory physical activity as a healthy body opens the doors of a potentially healthy mind. The Paras World School has been a follower of this which I have observed from a student studying there and would like to convey a note of thanks to this contribution.

Physical activity versus smart phone

An ideal mind is better than an ideal body. An ideal body leads to many illnesses; on the other hand an ideal mind is temporary. Once the body is in action, mind starts working automatically with no effort from external sources.

Outdoor games and sports are the best ways to maintain a healthy lifestyle and this should be understood by the parents and teachers. Academics with Study amalgamate magically to give the best result. Paras World School ensures that physical education is given equal importance with academics.

How sad!

It is really a sad picture of where the kids are heading to at present. Well, one word of comfort is that Paras world School is incorporating academics and sports and games at equal balance to ensure the result is outstanding.

Students are born with a mind elastic and can be stretched at any direction. It can be molded in any form, why not mold the right way then?

How sad!

It is really sad to see the students grow with the use of smart phones that is handicapping their growth in terms of height and weight. Not just mental fitness, physical fitness is degrading.
