Ryan school murder case: who is guilty? Teenage or parenting?

The CBI has claimed that Class 11 student slit seven-year-old Pradhyumn's throat after luring him inside the school washroom on September 8 as he wanted the school to postpone the exams and parent-teacher meeting (PTM).So its all about exam's fear or we can say parent's pressure for scoring good marks.Class 11th exam score is no big deal for admission to further colleges. Even after that ,the student is so forced by himself to do that kind of thing. Isn't it that force drive came from their parents but indirectly. 
The new survey by ChildLine found that 92% of young people feel anxious about their revision and exams.  While most young people are able to manage their anxiety, vulnerable young people are turning to alcohol (14%) and self harm (8%) to cope. This presents a significant safeguarding concern for these vulnerable young people.
Results from the ChildLine poll also found:
  •  Other main causes of anxiety for young people are not getting into university or college (57%) and fears about sitting the exam (56%)
  •  Almost two thirds (64%) say they’ve never had any support in dealing with exams
  • Almost half (45%) of children and young people say they have skipped meals due to anxiety about exams
  • Two thirds (64%) of those surveyed said they have had trouble sleeping
  • Talking to friends (43%) is the most common way of dealing with exam anxiety        
  • INTO A JUVENILE’S MIND
  • Poverty has always bred resentment, a root-cause of many crimes. But over the years, a fast-changing and developing society has introduced other insecurities. “Across socio-economic and educational groups children are affected by parents not spending quality time with them, and by an increasingly competitive world,” says Dr Rajesh Kumar, director, Society for Promotion of Youth and Masses. According to him, there are a few factors that are specific to each group. In lower middle class families, for instance, where both parents are working, children grow up in a vacuum. In middle class families, parents have multiple expectations from the child, including high grades in school. This often makes the school environment a threatening one for the child. When children fail to cope, depression may lead to substance abuse, and then crime. In high-income families, almost every amenity is provided to the child either from a desire by parents to maintain their own status in society or to satisfy the ego of the child.

Obstacles to construction of Ram temple in Ayodhya will soon 'wither away', says Hindu Mahasabha

Bengaluru:  The Akhil Bharat Hindu Mahasabha on Saturday expressed the hope that all obstacles to building a Ram Temple at the disputed site in Ayodhya would "wither away" and people would witness its construction very soon. The remarks by the outfit's chief Chandra Parakash Kaushik comes amid reports of proposal of mediation talks by Art of Living founder Sri Sri Ravi Shankar on the issue. Members of the Akhil Bharat Hindu Mahasabha and Nirmohi Akhara met Ravi Shankar at his Bengaluru ashram. "We are hopeful that all the obstacles in building Ram Temple will wither away and very soon a gigantic Ram Mandir will be built at Ayodhya," Kaushik said. "The meeting with Gurudev was fruitful." The meeting comes weeks after Uttar Pradesh Shia Central Waqf Board chairman Waseem Rizvi met Ravi Shankar in Bengaluru and apprised him of the Board's stand that a Ram temple should be built at the disputed site. In a bid to resolve the Ayodhya issue, R...

Why So Few Women in Bitcoin?

Tech industries are inherently male-dominated for reasons that include boys being introduced to gadgets at a younger age, leading to just 16% of computer science undergraduates being female. Despite initiatives designed to encourage more girls to code, the number of female computer science undergraduates in the UK has actually dropped in the last 10 years. Attributing other reasons to the absence of women in tech is highly contentious, as fired Google engineer James Damore  discovered  to his peril this year. In its earliest days, bitcoin was a wild west that evoked memories of the dawn of the internet – another piece of tech whose earliest innovators and adopters were predominantly male. A degree of technical knowledge was required to fully utilize the web back then, and the same holds true of bitcoin even today. While the UX of bitcoin has since improved thanks to development at the application layer, cautionary tales of lost private keys, coins sent to wrong addresses,...
