A heartbreaking incident has come to light from Bilaspur district of Himachal which has shocked the entire area. A student of one tenth grade of only 14 years committed suicide in Panoh village. Everyone is surprised to know the reason – the child gave his life just because his mother refused to watch TV and asked him to focus on studies. This incident is not only a story of the end of the life of an innocent, but it also raises deep questions on social mindset, family dialogue and mental health of children.
Travel from minor altercation to death
This painful incident occurred on Thursday. Kishore studying in class X was insisting on watching TV at his home. But the mother advised her to scold her strictly and complete homework. This scolding of the mother felt so bad for the child that he left the house without saying anything. The family thought that he would return in a while, but as time passed, the concern increased.
Dead body found in deserted house
The family started searching for the teenager. Shortly thereafter, his body was found hanging in an old, deserted house near the village. This scene was so frightening that anyone who saw was stunned. The family hurriedly took him down and took him to the hospital, but by then it was too late. The police was immediately informed, after which the body was captured and sent to Ghumarwin Hospital for postmortem. The body was handed over to the family after the post -mortem on Friday.
Mental state is also investigated
Giving information to the media, Deputy Superintendent of Ghumarwin, Deputy Superintendent of Police, said that the matter seems to be a prima facie suicide, but the police is investigating from every angle. Information is being collected about the mental state, family environment and behavior of the teenager. His mobiles, school performances and friends are also being interacted.
A question: Are we able to understand our children?
This incident is not just suicide, but a warning for society. A normal family scolding broke the child so much that he decided to die. It shows how emotional sensitivity children are going through today and to what extent they need mental cooperation and guidance.
Become a parent emotional support, not pressure
In today’s digital age, children’s attention goes very much towards TV, mobile and gaming. In such a situation, when parents stop them, there is a situation of conflict. But it is important that parents also communicate strictly. Instead of scolding children, it is important to explain, hear and give them a chance to express their expressions.
Experts believe that steps such as suicide are often the result of deep mental stress and loneliness. Children go through physical and mental changes in a teenage stage. In such a situation, they also need not only discipline, association with their own people, understanding and sympathy.
The role of school and society is also important
After this incident, teachers, school administration and people of the society also need to introspect. Are we making children mentally empowered? Is the role of counselors in schools being taken seriously? The 14 -year -old innocent who probably realized a big dream yesterday became an incomplete story today. His departure is a warning that we still have to redefine relationships with children in time. It was not wrong to refuse to watch TV, but communication gap and emotional distance took away a life. Learning from this sad incident, it is now necessary that we learn to read the minds of children – because many times they are unable to say, their biggest pain is hidden in it.
