Both parents and children should read this latest blog by Mohanlal

Mohanlal has always been a socially committed personality. He has frequently voiced his opinions about various social and political issues through his blogs. The actor has been writing blogs for the past 6 years. Every month he updates about any particular topic that he feels is relevant to address. Some of his blogs have earned him a lot of flak but the actor has never backed away from expressing what he feels needs to be addressed.

In the wake of the recent incidents of abuse against students and frequent reports about suicides committed by students, Mohanlal chose to write his latest blog about this particular issue. Titled as ‘Tears for the Children’, this blog is highly recommend for all parents, teachers and students.

Some excerpts from the blog is given below,
“All these news that we have been hearing is not happening in far away places or foreign countries, it is happening in our neighborhood and locality. Academic issues and financial constraints were always prevalent in the society. Those days teachers used to scold and punish students who failed in exams. But they never commit suicide, they were not physically tortured and abused. Those days it was cane, now it has changed to dark rooms were students are being beaten up. I don’t have any advice to parents, teachers and family members who abuse children, because they don’t deserve it. Only solution is that such people should be punished at the earliest. But I have something to say to all kids out there, suicide is never a solution. I can understand your pain and pressure but you should move forward overcoming all that. You should point fingers at those who abuse you, or else they will continue doing the same.”

Mohanlal also pointed out at the current educational system. Eminent personalities like Abdul Kalam, Abraham Lincoln, Swami Vivekananda and Nelson Mandela were inspirations for us to face the obstacles in life. It’s time we revisit those days.
