Sperm donors vs human milk donors - another injustice against women

Image
 Indian culture is ant-women though it is a taboo to talk about this fact. Laws also do not support truly. There is something else written and something else said and done.  Women are usually put on more manual jobs and paid less. They are rarely given leadership jobs though they could have been better leaders of the hurdles in their lives were abolished.  Now coming to sperm donation vs human milk donation. If you see both, and think on those, you will realise that human milk donation is much more valuable and useful. Yet, human milk donors are either not paid or are paid less. But sperm donors are always paid and paid more. Why this difference???? Read: How to eat idlis? Law fails to help these mothers who I would say are exploited in the name of humanity. When sperm donation and surrogacy are compensated, why not human milk donation be compensated at par??? A food for thought!!!

Mobile gadgets and its ill consequences

 People were hooked onto mobile phones and corona virus has worsened the situation. Travel restrictions and lockdown forced more people to get online and hence overuse their mobile phones. Phonesand surfing has become a demand of times and an addiction. But it is also true that companies are pushing it on gullible consumers. Technology is advancing more than what humans actually need for a happy living.

Kids and mobiles

Infants and children like mobile phones. They are on the net for hours together and are totally unsupervised. I do pity the ignorant parents who are happy that their child is quiet  after taking the mobile phone in hand. And now the pandemic has forced children to go to virtual media for learning. This could have dangerous repercussions. But no one seems bothered. What are the likely bad consequences of this digital technology?


Problems with mobile phones

Both mobile phone and laptop use lead to eye strain. This is more when there is improper lighting around and proper screen interfaces are not used to protect the eyes. The kids get dry eyes, itchy eyes, blurring of vision, and even retinal issues. Additionally there can be postural issues, musculoskeletal pains, vitamin deficiencies due to more indoor life, mental issues due to less social contact and also improper training. 


What steps to take to mitigate it?

1. Try to limit use of digital technology.

2. Take frequent breaks

3. Use special specs to block the harmful blue light emitted from the screens

4. Use adaptive lighting

5. Parents should supervise what kids are doing on the net and schedule their use of it. 

The good of the virtual world should be tapped and the bad to be avoided and controlled.
