Internet : A blessing and a curse
In the historic times, “the world was simple and ready to mingle”.
No one was racing, not much of a competition, slow development, low population, less needs, less demands, less corruption, less terrorism, less insecurity, more safety, happy and long life. The people were happy with the small earning, with their regular work and with their family. I think you will all agree with my thoughts.
Life was changing at that time also but the changes were slow and steady. Taking as an example a child, the kids used to play outdoor games like cricket, football, badminton, some sort of running and chasing games and many more and indoor games like chess, table-tennis and so on. They used to enjoy all those games because at that time they didn’t have any means of leisure apart from such games. Though some video games were there but they were also restricted with the available games.
Then the world started evolving, people developed various scientific technologies. As it is very well said that: “If science has blessed you with utilities for your ease, then these utilities and facilities may turn to poison some day or other if misused”. The jewels given by science to us are all the machines like refrigerators, washing machines, vehicles, phones, mobiles and the biggest invention is the computer. The revolutionary role was played by the INTERNET. On another note, these facilities can groom your life, if you use them properly for the positive side, they can entertain you and help achieving your goal.
Do you all ever think about the internet? Is it a magical boon or a black moon?
In today’s era, internet has taken the place of each and everything which I discussed in the above lines like games, friends, family and social life. The child of 2-3 years now a days start playing with mobiles and video handsets, the child in his early age is provided cell phones and internet to cherish their future by gathering the information from the entire world and for being connected with one another. Now the question arises that are these facilities being used for the improvement of the future or being misused?
We can’t stop our children from using internet but can only help them separate right from wrong, that in which direction they have to move forward by telling them about the benefits and flaws of both the good and bad paths respectively.
The children in the very small age of 7-8 years are involved in the social networking sites. To be social is not a wrong move, but to include unknown in your list is the wrong move. They should be informed about the bitter realities of the world before exposing them to the world.
“Children are wet mud, whatever shape you want you can give to them, but after they have taken a shape, again reshaping them will damage the statue. “In the current scenario internet is serving to you with all good and bad side of the world, by providing you free clicks and free downloading. The net is serving you with adult games, porn films and adult sites with no age restrictions.
Now what the parents can do if all the worst dishes are served in their child plate? They might be busy in their work and it may happen that their child may get involved in all these things and may be destroyed completely. The parents can do only one thing that they should openly talk to their children like a friend and tell them all the things. They should not hide anything from their children because they have to understand that if they will not tell anything to their child, they will try to find their answer from any other source and that may be more harmful to them. Be open and friendly with your child. Try to understand them and present yourself in such a way that they understand you.
Internet has provided uncountable advantages, but the need is to keep your eyes open and then take the advantage. In the upcoming days internet is being used as the source of employment also. There are many sites and forums by which we can earn money online. There are SMS and mail sending jobs also. But as I said that if you are given facilities they can be turned into a curse also, and such a case again came in lime light in Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, India.
The recent case of 29june, 2013 which included the case of fraud and cheat. A chit-fund company named Radiance Online Service Private Limited has asked for some investment from the users by promising of multiplying the amount every month. Some problem came in the site and the whole work came to an end. No payment made, few cheques were bounced and the users filed a complaint against the owner of the company. Millions of rupees are involved in the scandal. Users are asking for the refund. Currently the owner is in judicial custody.
So, with this case we can reach to the end result that the internet is misused. Now in this case social media is greatly involved. Media is just elaborating the news by adding salt and pepper to the facts of the case. The role of media is rather negative in the current scenario. They are just moving to gather the plentiful information without concerning about people’s lives. Media has made privacy public. Instead of helping the public, they make them guilty to get any news out of them. By quoting an example, the selfish role of media can be well presented. The disaster, the cloud burst which took place in Uttarakhand, India, which took the life of almost 2lakh people and destroyed everything over there, the media people from every channel went over there to get the footage, coverage with the helicopters or private vans but the media authority never thought of financially helping the people over there or just seeking their help to them. If they tried, they would have saved many lives by taking few of them in their vehicles but no efforts were made.
This is the picture of the world towards what we are heading to. The picture is really endangering us but have to be dealt with the existing picture to make it beautiful and productive.
