Mobile Internet Phobia

(Khalid Ali, Faisalabad)

21st Century starts with the innovations of technology which changes the lifestyle completely. The most popular and breathtaking innovation of 21st century is Mobile and Internet, which came on the scene in the last decade of 20th century but became favorite on the beginning of 21st century. Internet and Mobile technology astonished people quite badly, because before mobile and internet communication is not so convenient, fast and cheap. Today almost everyone is enjoying these wonderful innovations of modern world.

Almost 2.5 billion people of Pakistan connected with internet. Unfortunately majority users are those youngsters who do not know the fair usage of internet and they are just wasting their time and money. They spend hours on face book, twitter and other social media sites on which they are commenting baseless views, editing pictures videos which are considered negative use of internet. The main reason for this is the negligence of government which fails to provide playgrounds and other positive activities.

There are no playgrounds for young generation; as a result our young generation wastes their time on social media sites.

Government of Pakistan will take adequate measures to provide playgrounds which keep youngsters away from internet and mobile phobia, one wheeling, drugs and other negative activities. You can’t imagine stopping young generation without giving replacement. There is an old saying.”A healthy body keeps healthy mind”.

The director of institution of encephalic morbidity Barcelona Spain, Dr. Itgees stated that first time in the history of institution we are treating those children who are seriously affected by Internet and Mobile Phobia. The average ages of these children ranges between 12 to 15 years. They are so badly affected by internet and Mobile Phobia that they are unable to focus on studies; as a result they are continuously showing worst results in their class. They became Psyche case and unable to do any sort of job without Mobile Phone. They are involved in moral evils and abuses in order to get money from their relatives. Now they are getting treatment for these diseases which are the results of modern technology innovations.

More than 125 million Pakistanis using mobiles. Mobile companies introducing several packages to attract especially young boys and girls. There are different SMS packages accompanied with hourly talk packages. As a result, young generation of our country wasting their time on mobiles and they are loosing their moral values. Young girls give their information and about their family to unknown persons which claim to be their friends of mobiles and resulting they are blackmailed from them. Always remember that unfair usage of any technology causes destruction. A research of an American scientist, Davis claims that use of mobile causes brain cancer, as the rays of mobile phones damages brain seriously. Mobile companies are spending millions of dollars to overcome this issue.

It is requested to parents, particularly to mothers that they should watch the activities of their children over mobile phones. Parents should give more time to children and share their activities. Mothers try to attach girls with them and involved them in household jobs. Slowly the average use of mobile phones came down and this will bring positive change in our society.

Lastly few words for government authorities, they should establish a check and balance system. The government banned all types of night packages in order to control our young generation.

Internet and Mobile Technology is no doubt a blessing of today, but misuse of these causing serious problems in our society.
