In what went before, the
smoking was injurious to health and now days it changed as smoking is cause of
cancer and heart diseases. These are those warnings which were and are written
compulsory on sides of cigarettes’ pockets, which shows that our elected
governments are really sincere with public and try honestly to protect their
health on level best just as it tries to uproot and eradicate the crime.
The elected governments of our beloved homeland apply same strategies as iron
cuts iron to control the health and law and order situation but it is very
different from rest world. It is a simple instance that when in any district an
honest District Police Officer like Mrs. A D Khowaja, Ghulam Nabi Memon,
Sanaullah Abbasi and Basheer Memon and the like are posted, consequently crime
ratio is reducing down within days and on contrary when any corrupt DPO is
posted in any Distt; Consequently crime ratio is talking with sky; obviously, we
should understand that who is basic cause of increasing crime whether all Town
or District police personnel or one Town or District Police Officer?
In the same way it is being controlled that no child or youngster should addict
the narcotics and cigarettes etc. when there is no control and strict checking
on gateway of border of the country, transportation from one province to an
other province, notorious dens, suppliers and those who are getting weeklies and
monthlies to recover the wealth they have invested against their postings and
other favours. Moreover, we observe that parents, guardians, teachers, elders,
relatives, friends, politicians and media etc. are blow in which direction
whether in favour or against these evils of the society.
Concerns of Tobacco
Chemical nicotine is one of the worst harms. A person can get addicted to
nicotine within a few days. The nicotine in tobacco can be as addictive as
cocaine or heroine. Nicotine affects a person's frame of mind as well as the
heart, lungs, stomach, and nervous system.
And there are other health risks. Short-term effects of smoking include coughing
and throat frustration. Over time, more serious conditions may develop,
including increases in heart rate and blood pressure. Young smokers are more
likely to conduct test with cocaine, heroin, or other illicit drugs.
Health risks of smoking are well known, yet the rates of smoking and the use of
using tobacco continue to grow. Many people are picking up these habits when
they are young - in fact, 90% of all adult smokers started when they were kids.
And every day, more than 5,000 kids become regular smokers.
So it's important to make sure your child understands the dangers that go along
with using tobacco. It can cause cancer, heart disease, or lung disease. Using
tobacco can lead to nicotine addiction, oral cancer, gum disease, and an
increased risk of cardiovascular disease, including heart attacks.
Leading ideology
Establish a good communication with your child. Discuss on demerits and hazards
of smoking with your child. Develop self-confidence in your child. Encourage and
engage your child to get involved in activities that prohibit smoking, such as
study competitions, sports etc. Show your child that you value his or her
opinions and ideas. Make surveillance of your child. In which company he/she
kills the time in your absence. Teach your child basic Islamic teachings against
the evil of narcotics. Encourage your child to walk away from friends who don't
recognize or respect his or her reasons for not smoking.
Mirror image of Parents and teachers
Children are fast to scrutinize any contradiction between what their parents and
teachers say and what they do.
If you being a parent or teacher are a smoker: initially, make a clean breast to
your child or pupil that you made a blunder by starting to smoke and that if you
had it to do over again, you'd never start. Secondly, quit smoking immediately.
It's not easy any way. It may take several tries but your child will be
optimistic as he or she observes you overcome your addiction habit.
In fine long, I humbly request the authorities not to change the man made
constitution on diurnal basis, not to combat in the foamy warfare of parliament,
not to weep crocodile tears and not to make ass voices but concentrate from the
bottom of your heart and try to change your mind and mentality and imagine you
must be produced before supreme authority of Almighty Allah then who could save
you from severe behaviour.
