I have changed a lot. First I used to wake up at 5 O’clock and go to the park with my dad But now I wake up at 12 O’clock and I don’t go to the park. I’ve become so lazy that I can’t tell you. First I was able to wake up at 6.30am But now I wake up at 9.30 am or sometimes even at 11 am. I haven’t met my friends for a long time. Going out to the playground is a ‘No’ for all of us. Before Corona I used to go out to playground to play with my friends. But now my terrace is my playground only. Do you remember when we played in the playground and played football and cricket and that. Yeah! And we shared our lunch too. I can’t eat food from outside. I can’t do anything of my choice. Good morning Mam! Good bye Mam! Oh! I am fed up of these on-line classes. My eyes are paining. I want to go back to my school. For children, screen time has increased. Not only for school work but also the other classes to be done on-line. These are affecting our eyes. When the pandemic wasn’t there I used to play only little bit on Mom’s phone and just call my friends to see if they are free. That was all. But now my online studies, my online classes, my tuitions…. I still talk to my friends on face time and that also for 2 hours. I really miss my school fun and that’s why I chat with friends on video call and play video games with them. I really wish everything goes back to normal. In this pandemic I feel that I am locked in my room. When will I play with my friends? I am really missing them. Oh God! Send corona away fast. I keep one glass for protection of my eyes. I am missing my friends! I really miss my friends. I really don’t like lockdown because I can’t go out to play I can’t ride my bicycle and I even can’t go to my favourite restaurant. But it is important to safeguard ourselves from corona virus and from spreading it to the world. Stay home and stay healthy. Remember! Safety comes first.

Stop, Halt, Stop thinking. You are out here with your friends. It’s happening again, Black...pitch black… The blindfold absorbs the light. Restricting my thoughts, Blurring my vision like poison, the darkness creeps through my veins holding every fiber hostage. Sometimes I wonder what the World will be like without this veil of darkness in front of my eyes. The light, it’s blinding. It’s back but I won’t submit, not this time. I am free I flow with the wind. I let lose. This can be me. Hell, this is me! Or…or is it just another hoax mocking my misery. Like poison the darkness flows back through my veins, snatching me back from reality into my own endless void. As I stand here embraced by the devil I created I accept my defeat. Maybe someday I’ll be strong enough to fight it. But surely not today.

@PLURALPLUS @UNICEF @mediaandinformationliterac6427 @meenakshivinayrai2739 @Blippi @BRKsEDU @kidscamp Hi We are teenagers! We are the travelers on the journey called puberty. In this wild and confusing journey, Internet is our life line. While it eases off our quest for knowledge, connectivity with peers, need for entertainment, downloading songs, movies and playing games.... Many a times Internet brings us content that isn't always age appropriate. Wanna go for a date honey? Looking for someone? Feeling lonely? Wanna see Lily? Wanna have some fun? Are you looking for a macho man? At times popups while gaming take us to explicit sites sometimes innocent downloads serve as a gateway to such content. Oh yes.... sometimes friends to encourage us to go to certain links And when there is a word of caution from adults about certain sites.... it enthuses us more to search what is forbidden for us. Have you ever wondered what happens to us when we land up in explicit sites? We face Dilemma whether to continue watching or look for a pause button We Feel awkward We feel Disgusted We feel Embarrassed We feel Overwhelmed At times we feel scared and shocked Though many times we watch it accidently, still it gives us a feeling of fear and shame. We try reaching the option of deleting the history. But the images haunt us and the impact remains. Our perceptions of man woman relationship change. The way we percieve other gender changes. We are at unrest. There is this strong sense of discomfort. There is this sense of anxiety. There is fear of being judged and labeled. We want to share and discuss our experience. This is the moment we miss some sort of guidance and orientation to deal with newly generated emotions. There seems no one except friends who can be trusted. The sense of what is right haunts us. Our sexual emotions get triggered. There is a desire to experiment that could lead us into vulnerable situations.
