A wise decision
Very recently it was decided that a person below 18 years of age won't be given any SIM card. It is undoubtedly a wise decision. I agree that mobile companies had taken many positive initiatives which brought several changes in our social as well as economic life. In our country, many parents are hard-pressed to fulfil the demand of their teenaged sons and daughters. The teenagers are not mature enough to understand the economic condition of their parents. At the same time, it is very difficult to control the emotion of the teenagers. Due to the influence of dish culture, they often try to copy the alien culture. They unnecessarily talk hour after hour through mobile which is also a kind of fashion for them. Moreover, some naughty boys are bold enough to threaten others with the help of the mobile phone. Parents not only become irritated but also worried about the activities of their children. People of this country are not rich enough to spend money for talking unnecessarily. It would be great if the same restriction is imposed upon the Facebook users too.
We should always remember that both mobile and Internet are very strong modes of communication and we should use them judiciously.
