Inculcate restraint amongst children in using mobiles

Since classes have gone online for students, if not a computer or a laptop, at least every student has to possess a smartphone.

It is the duty of parents and teachers to guide children and wards from being tempted into applications that are not meant for them. 

It may be cautioned that some tempting sites might blunt the students' senses and reduce their educational incisiveness in pursuit of excellence in their respective subjects. 

In the present scenario where students may not get a chance to mingle and socialize, it should be the endeavour of parents and teachers to provide the best for their children and wards towards their maximum educational advancements.
