Lopamudra replied to the topic How To Help Your Child Deal With Bullying.
One can not really generalize. Most teachers in my opinion are good . It gives immense satisfaction to see your students doing well. Doing well doesnt simply mean academic merit. It also means a child's holistic development.A teacher does his best to see a child progress. Only some teachers believe in the "spare the rod and spoil the child' theory and even fewer are the frustrated lot who vent their frustration on the students resulting into corporal punishment which is not acceptable and is actually banned.Actually if a child complains of corporal punishment, the teacher can end up in jail. But this is a small percentage. Most teachers are really hands on into the all round development of the students .I have seen teachers help prevent bullying to a great extent. My son during his initial schooling years was a very reserved child and thanks to the teachers it took him only a few days to adjust to the school environment ,develop confidence and tackle various incidents which also included bullying by little older kids.

What to do when you are caught in verbal exchange or dealing with someone who is upset over a misunderstanding and unable to communicate clearly in the moment?
I generally do not like verbal exchanges but when it comes to settling the differences I have my own unique ways.

Come on! We are not ridiculous. It is a fact that parents and teachers both are not an alternative to each other. Both the sections have their own mindset as well as priorities and that cannot match. What I want to say is that most of the teachers keep themselves confined to teaching only but if they take a little extra care then they can mould the student's personality for the life which nowadays is grossly ignored. They do ask the students to behave properly and if they misbehave then they are ready to punish, but, how many try to inculcate good qualities in the children by motivation and strong support? Aren't they very rare nowadays?

I agree. For any manufacturer, the way the Marketing strategy is employed to promote the product plays a key role. The strategy should be kept in mind the necessity of safe guarding the buyer and emission factors. You know how important is the emission factor to balance the
ecological balance.. And Nissan is not an exception.
There are other bad factors related to e vehicles and one of the major problem is consumption of electricity which is a rare commodity in India beside the Lead-Acid battery used in these vehicles have their own complications on environment.

My personal opinion is that there should be a ban. 25 was better because young people do get into drinking and more so under peer pressure. If there is a ban, it may not be possible to stop drinking at young age completely but people would be weary, otherwise it is a free pass. Social drinking is a norm but the younger lot do not know where to draw a line and then they get into all sorts problems like drunken driving, misbehavior and so on. Although older people are also prone to such problems but after a certain age they are responsible for themselves whereas when they are young they just ruled by external influences.
Ban is no solution to any problem. There is a blanket ban on drinking in Gujarat but the drinks are available on demand (in black market) and I have seen minors boozing in every state. The need is to ban the alcohol at manufacturing level and tighten the role of watchdogs.
Possibly. But at least kids(most if not all)would be weary of the consequences of boozing. Many may not want to venture into what it may lead to if they are caught. Ban may not be able to stop the problem but it will reduce it.

I start drinking water,right from getting up in the morning until I go to bed in intervals of every 2 hours.
The fact is I drink at least 3-4 lit of water depending on weather even if I have to force myself for doing so. The other fact is, I always drink 3-4 glasses of water first thing in the morning.

Lopamudra replied to the topic How useful dribking water .
Being from a doctor's family I can say that our daily fluid intake should be approx 2 lits. One should have about 1.5 lits of water everyday so that rest of the food which also contains water water can make up for the remaining 0.5lit. We feel thirsty when our body urgently requires water. We should not wait till we feel thirsty to drink water all the time because many a times such as winters we dont really feel thirsty but water loss keeps happening due to various activities. This may lead to various health complications such as dehydration, UTI etc

Ban is to legally prohibit. If there is no ban, there is no fear and everyone takes it as acceptable.I feel age is relevant. The young adults, when they join a job (field areas are highly prone to drinking because there is no family to worry about)they feel that they are free to do whatever they want. In addition they have money in hand and are influenced by peers. At that young age they don't have the maturity to understand what is right for them. They drink in company and in order to experience something new and also to show that they have attained adulthood while in reality they lack the maturity to understand where to stop and what consequences it may have. At 25 however, people are more mature to understand the consequences of their actions much better and are therefore able to control themselves to certain extent from overindulgence.So, even if they start drinking, it would be within limits.
