Situation- A girl went to a disco party.
Action-Â One of the daily papers shot and a picture of her dancing with her friends.
Reaction-Â Life at home became difficult hence she went to the publication with a letter to the editor saying that things had got worst at home due to the carelessness of the publication.
The picture was published on the Boxing Day, captioned youngsters celebrating Christmas.
As you might have guessed from the earlier lines this girl had gone to the party without her parents permission. In fact according to her she is not allowed to go to these event as they are strictly forbidden at home. The paper according to her had shot and published the picture without her consent.
This is a familiar situation to many in our society. I can still remember the same incident happening to my classmates a couple of years ago. On that occasion their picture had been published on the front cover as well as the inside page of a leading magazine of the country. On finding out about it they had been simply grounded for a week.
I know of lots who suffer form this problem. Many of them even feel guilty about having to lie to their parents and still they go. But wouldn’t their life be so much easier if they simply had a nice conversation with their parents, telling them how things had changed and that youths of today like to have fun differently. Believe me this will solve a lot of your problems.
And there simply is no other way out in the long run. For who long do you think will you be able to lie to your parents.
Please keep in mind the saying- you can fool some of the people some of the time but cannot fool all of the people all of the time.
