IMPACT OF MEDIA ON CHILDERN…

Posted on at


Children are the future of the nation.  Any nation can expect a bright future if it trains its children in a right path, in contrast the wrong training of children lead to the destruction of a nation. It is often said that if you want to destroy any nation, put its young generation especially infants and children on wrong path so that they are distrustful from their elders.  If I say it in clear words then put its generation in luxury activities then the nation will choose disaster as its destination. That is why Islam has given great importance to the training of children.

Under the banner of “Broad mindedness” where there we deviate from other Islamic teachings also In the case of the training of our children we are showing negligence and negligence has reached its limit. Someone has well said that, "We're worried that what will happen to our children after our death, but we do not worry that what will happen to our children after their death.”  So today, for the future of our children material is believed to be the only important thing. Our attention is rare on children morals, character, habits and we have no care which factors have adverse impact on the character of children and which stuff is distorting their characters.

Media is a familiar name in the things that are increasingly stiffening day by day. Everyone knows what media is but no one knows what are the advantages and disadvantages of the media. Especially the youth of today do not realize that whether they are reforming their thoughts through the media or putting their selves in trouble. Parents supposed that media is source of entertainment and education for their children but actually it has devastating effect on the moral values.

It is a fact that whatever a child learns at the age of seven he adheres to it till the age of seventy. Childhood is the golden age and children require their parents attention during this time period but today children spend this time in watching useless cable broadcasts. Parents do not have time to check their children what they are learning and understanding through media. The children that grow up with media when reach the age of awareness, lifestyle shown through media with bungalows to large vehicles cause to materialism in children. The abundance of violence, sectarianism and love song has given a tremendous blow to individualism and self-awareness of youth.  Media has promoted obscenity, indecency openly expressed, using unnecessary and meaningless and wastage of time.

As there is no rose without thrones similarly the things which have negative effect can also have positive effect it depends on the way how we are using it. Media can also help youth in learning many things for their betterment. If parents breed their children in better way then it does not matter what is showing on media because children know very well the difference between good and evil and they will think twice while taking any step.
