KARACHI - Our moribund social and family system has caused many problems among our youngsters. If these issues not address now, we would be facing completely dejected society. Today the world is moving fast and to cope with this condition we have also accelerated our pace towards progress. But ironically, this is done the cost of our social and family structure. Being progressive and successful is the best one can have in this world but neglecting our tradition and family system will give raise to such problems that will not be easy to curb. The growing violence and other dissolute that exist in our society attributed to the lack of understanding as well as communication that prevail among our generations. During the last few years there have been continuous reports that indicate that violence among our youth is growing day by day. Large section of this problem is associated to the budding influence of media and other means of technology. Technology is not being blamed here as it has given us easy means of access to latest developments that has been taking place in the world. Internet gives us way to talk or gather information from places far off from our own place. Most recent advancements in the field of science provide us with many new inventions that have made our lives comfortable and cozy than ever before. Science has provided us with such new technology that it is not difficult for anyone to look beautiful just in few days. Medical researches have made our life more simple and convenient. Rapid increase of diseases has forced the medical scientists all over the world to bring in new researches that would cure the afflicted humanity. But along with all these developments, there are problems that one witness in today's society. There are always two ways of using knowledge, either good or bad. What we are witnessing these days is the perilous and unconstructive use of technology. The more easily the access to different knowledge has been made, the more problems have raised their heads. Mostly, parents show concerns that their children have no time for them. They are busy with their friends and when free they have other commitments like chatting on internet and surfing different websites. There is less time that a family spends together. Fast moving world has changed the priorities among the family members. This has destroyed the family system and created a huge generational gap. Our family system previously was strong and children in the family learn from their elders. Now, the major excuse is shortage of time. Parents have no such knowledge about advancing technology and children of this age took great advantage form it. Their ignorance leads to their child's ruining. Parents should overcome this problem by taking interest in the matters of their children. They can communicate with their children on their problems and give advices to them. It is never too late and parents should start looking after their child's activity. On the other hand, media is also blamed for the immorality that prevailed among our present generation. But this censure is not right. There is no denying of the fact that media holds strong influence on the children as our youth tries to follow their favorite celebrities. The rapid increase of violence among the youngsters is also been witnessed. Children try to imitate their favourite wrestlers. They prefer to watch movies with violent scenes in abundant. These things leave a devastating impact on a child's mind. Here parents first and then schools have a responsibility of seeing what children should be allowed to watch and how images may be perceived. It happens all the time that unless clearly labeled as containing violence, sex, or graphic language, parents often overlook the messages children are getting from media. Parents should watch at least one episode of the program that a child views. So, you can better understand the content and discuss it with him/her. Explanation about questionable incidents that occur in the program should be discussed. Suggest alternatives to violent actions as ways to solve problems. Parents should teach children to differentiate clearly between fiction and real life. Children should be taught not to bully others and make sure that they do not get examples of violence at home or at school. A strict check on child's activity will make our child a responsible citizen and helps our surroundings safe to live.
