Those were the days of bygone..the times of childhood,when our day would pass by playing the games,gathering things around us,games of fun,such as the "pithu gram"..going back to the most primitive level,games such as "ghar-ghar''.And that wasn't just my scene,everyone around me agree for having played such stuff.Now,when I look at the kids around me,it surprises me how much the scenario has changed.
They say,time brings major changes in the society.They even say,changes brought with time should be accepted.But I've not been able to,with toddlers nowadays speaking swearwords as fluently as their nursery rhymes.I do not remember how many times Iv seen them disrespecting their elders for no reason.With the kids of today who cannot stop ranting about their new iPhone or about the "sexy new chic" in their classroom,it worries me where our society is heading to.Not many around me agree that they used to be the same as kids today are.
These might not be some very serious changes,but they definitely denote disasters that are yet to follow.I cannot stop myself from co-relating these with the adolescents of today.Makes me feel ashamed to mention about the Xth grade student who raped a year old infant,or the 16-yr old most recently convicted for the rape of Delhi girl.And the number of such cases is still rising.Where are the "natural kids" lost? A 15-year old becomes offensive when you call him as a "kid" these days.Why do they feel as if they'r adults?Not a very good sign.
This is an internet age,I know,but too much of anything is always bad.I know this girl ,who is in second grade and is on facebook. There are many more of her age on other social media sites.I remember when I was of her age,I would spend my leisure time watching cartoons.Cant blame her even,because the shows meant for the toddlers nowadays really SUCK(shows like "suite life of karan and kabir" where two children flirt around a girl..sick!) IE to conclude social media is another one to be blamed. And we cannot miss to blame the way the children are brought up in-too much pampering is not good.
I wish they realize soon,that childhood is a transient period of life-every moment should be treasured,you can't relive these moments.Because by the time they become older,the situation becomes somewhat like this:
