Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

If you can't beat them , then join them !

 Dear Parents and Principals and Teachers :

 

 

 

World over parents are concerned by excessive use of Mobile phones by their young children

Australia , China and some European countries are trying to curb such excessive usage through :

> Some sort of laws ( - very difficult to implement / monitor )

> Use of technology to enable Mobile Service Providers ( MSPs ) to limit the Mobile access to children, only during prescribed hours ( as in China )

Could we , in India , come up with some " Out of the Box " / Innovative solution ?

If we cannot " limit " the number of hours that our children spend on Mobile , can we , at least make them spend those hours , " benefitting " from such use ?

Can we get them to use their Mobiles to " Self Educate " themselves , by imbibing their " School Syllabus " ?

Can we get them to " prepare " themselves for questions that are likely to be asked in their exams ?

Can we get them to " Practise " ( taking such exams ) by creating MOCK TESTS on their mobiles ?

And do all of this totally FREE - and without even needing Registering or login ?

Yes , We can divert our children from spending their time looking at Instagram - FB - Whatsapp , to looking at :

Dear Parents and Principals and Teachers :



If you can't beat them , then join them !

Mobile , like a knife , is only a TOOL

It is up to us as to how we want to use it . Let us use it to " heal " - instead of " Kill "
