There are ways and means parents can follow to reduce the rising trends of children to increase their screen time in using android mobiles and restrain teenagers from using motorbikes for stunt biking.

In the fast changing digital era the lavish use of android mobile phones is triggering more anxieties among the parents than the entertainment it brings to their children and as such the health experts advise parents to restrain their children from unwanted and excessive use of android phones. Another such bad trend developing fast among the youth is the use of motor bikes for stunt biking now declared a punishable offence by Jammu & Kashmir Police.  Since the tendencies and trends of increasing screen time on android mobile phones developing fast among children is the cause of many critical health issues found unprecedentedly rising among the teenagers in Jammu & Kashmir, the anxieties among the parents over the lavish use of android mobile phone are also rising unprecedentedly. The unprecedented rise of such trends and tendencies among children demand and deserve immediate focus on parental interventions as there are ways and means parents can follow to reduce the rising trends of children to increase their screen time in using android mobiles and restrain teenagers from using motorbikes for stunt biking. Even naives won’t dispute the fact that children can access digital educational platforms in intervals and similarly trends of frequently calling teachers, friends and relations over android mobile phones developing fast among children can also be reduced through parental interventions. After all it is for the parents to give their children the access to android mobile phones only in exceptional situations instead of developing habit of using mobile android phones as an all time practice among their children. Parents are not only responsible for allowing the children to increase screen time on mobile android phones but they are also responsible for allowing their children to use motorbikes for stunt biking.  Allowing children to engage in activities like excessive use of android mobile phones and stunt biking is also one of the biggest causes of growing waywardness and unprecedented rise in the immoral activities developing fast among youth in Jammu & Kashmir. Let  this fact not also go unnoticed that the engagement  of youth in such activities in fact is also the cause of many critical health issues fast developing among the teenagers across Jammu & Kashmir.

“Parents are not only responsible for allowing the children to increase screen time on mobile android phones but they are also responsible for allowing their children to use motorbikes for stunt biking.  Allowing children to engage in activities like excessive use of android mobile phones and stunt biking is also one of the biggest causes of growing waywardness and unprecedented rise in the immoral activities developing fast among youth in Jammu & Kashmir.”

For both the parents and the teachers the rise in such trends and tendencies among the youth underscores the need for a balanced approach the uncompromising part of which could be strong vigil over the activities children both at the school and at the home. As we experience unprecedented changes in the conduct and behaviour of children both at the schools and at the home in the ongoing digital age, it is for the teachers and parents to understand these complexities and implement strategies that can reduce the increasing trends and tendencies of children to use lavishly android mobiles phones for increasing screen time and motor bikes for stunt biking across Jammu & Kashmir.
