Several children are abused by being subjected to burns. Realistic statistics will never be available for various reasons. However, doctors, particularly burn surgeons, are aware of the strange cause. Since the WHO has redefined the paediatric age as 0-18, the type of abuse varies. Hot water scalds are common in infants and children up to 5 years. Between the ages of 5 and 12, they suffer punishments by way of exposure to hot objects. Between 12 and 18, the abuses with corrosive chemicals are increasing. One day, a man brought his one-and-half-a-year old female child, Nalini (not the original name), with deep burns at the feet. They looked red like a pomegranate. The mother also came in but the couple never mentioned the cause of the burn. To my utter shock, they said it was due to fire-walking. I asked whether the child walked by herself or whether they carried her? The first answer was ‘we carried her'. But to my surprise there was no other area of burn on Nalini. If a o...

Friends, Now let us see what people of different age groups, and professions speaks/feels about superstitions in India. And As expected, youth is the one really against them and helping our moment to rise up so far:- STUDENTS SAY… I believe that superstitions are silly and ridiculous beliefs. Everything happening has a reason and a scientific explanation. As much as they are considered foolish, superstitions do affect the society a lot. For example, widows are considered to bring bad luck. At one point in India, widows couldn't get shelter and received harsh treatment. They were not allowed to attend auspicious functions. Also, black cats are hunted down because of the incredibly old superstition: Black cats bring bad luck. They have as much right to live freely without being cringed at do. I think that we all should attempt to steer our minds away from society-affecting superstitions and live as though they had never been created. TEACHERS SAY… ...
