Addiction Problem among the Children

Addiction seems to be the one of the biggest problems in nowadays world. There are so many types of addictions that sometimes it is extremely hard to recognize them. We can distinguish two main types of this problem. First one is the addiction to substances like alcohol and other drugs. Second is about behavior. People may be addicted to surfing the Net or eating. Usually the second category is straight connected with the experience which people feel during the activity. As far as eating is concerned, the pleasure coming from this activity is so high that stopping it may result in a big shock.

Kids and addiction
Children are the group that is the mostly exposed to any kind of threats. It mainly comes from the nature of the young person. Kids want to learn new things, want to try everything, especially what is forbidden. Everybody knows the story about Adam and Eve, which is the best explanation of the children’s desire. The more something is hidden and unavailable, the stronger the desire to have or experience it might be. In the same way young people are trying to get what they should not have access to. The most popular addictions among kids in these days are: narcotics, including alcohol, tobacco, marihuana and other chemical substances; computer and internet addictions and pornography.

Computer addictions
Nowadays you can find basically everything in the Internet, from the movies and video games to pornografic and brutal content. That’s why it became the most desired thing among the young people. They use it for everything, starting from the school related things like doing homework (however I would call it copy – paste work) ending with entertainment. Games and social media made the Internet environment very dangerous place in terms of wasting the kid’s time. Currently they are able to spend all day in front of the monitor just playing games. Porn and violent content is the second thing that attracts kid’s attention. This is especially dangerous, because children’s mentality can be hurt and it may have very dramatic consequences in the future like lack of openness to others and problems with creating new relationships. Apart from mental problems, health condition is also exposed to big overload because of lack of sleep. It may lead to the serious nutrition problems.

How to deal with that?
There are several ways to fight with addiction. The best practice is of course to prevent such a behavior. Education and building awareness from the very beginning is crucial to grow an aware kid who we will be able to recognize the threats. Another way of preventing these kinds of problems is to install parental control software. Parental control software is usually able to perform many kind of controlling activities like for instance blocking access to the violent websites, filtering the email box or regulating the time span in which user is able to use the computer. On the other hand, there are a lot parents that already have problems with keeping their kids away from the computer. In this case the parental control programs may also help, but parents should think about some more radicals moves. Specialist therapy should the first step after detecting any problems regarding the computer addiction.

It is third party software designed for Windows operating system that fully supports the process of setting up control over the computer users.

Keep Calm and Sing Your Heart Out

Imagine a world without music. For sure it will be dull, boring and lifeless place to live in. Music is universal, music transcends message, soothes our soul and calms our spirit.

Listening to music is one of the things that I make sure to do everyday. Be it on my phone, radio or over the internet, I have to make sure that I listen to music all the time. I listen to music when I am down, happy or just want to groove or during my exercise time every morning.

There are those who loves to sing no matter if they are just an ordinary people, novice or professional singer. It doesn;t matter as long as you want to pour some emotions. Singing can relieve our stress, believe me.

Listen to  music if you want to reminisce, groove or just want to have a company. If you want to play some musical instruments then that would be great. Learn more about us at MusiciansFriend.com if you want to purchase some musical accessories and more.

Stage Fright

Students need to participate in school's extra curricular activities as much as they can. This can give them extra points in their grades and as well as it can expose them to various events to gain confidence and exposure. I remember my nephew D who is in his senior year joined an academic group about marketing of sorts. Standing in front of his classmates as well as his teachers make him nervous. Apart from that, talking in stage with stage microphones can be pretty scary but those didn't hinder my nephew to deliver his defense and oral speech.

I'm sure he is so nervous but he knows what he is doing and studied his piece thoroughly that's why his stage freight disappeared as what he told us. He did a pretty good job and got a thumbs up from his teachers. Now, he has to wait for his grade that I know will be a good one.
