Wonderful publication. No doubt the Australians being a developed country has taken a rational decision in time to safeguard their society as a whole and their upcoming generations in particular. The developing countries like Pakistan where social assessment and analytical capabilities/ facilities are so rudimentary merely to nil level needs more proactive measures. The situation worsens in these countries when we don’t find anything reliable for gauging precisely the ill effects of this menace or to have any system for pausing, reversing or rectifying it’s grievous damage. It would be optimistic rather unrealistic to expect similar reformatory action by our governments however we may feel lucky if this article may even sensitise them to follow a technologically advanced nation. Nice job Professor Arejo Sahib

The Supportive/Appreciative Approach
Best if you agree with the professor and want to highlight the urgency of the issue in Pakistan.
”An excellent and timely analysis by Dr. Abdullah Arijo. The comparison with Australia’s recent legislation is very relevant; while Pakistan has a different digital landscape, the psychological and academic risks to our youth are universal. I particularly agree with the recommendation for ‘Digital Literacy for Parents.’ Laws can only do so much if the home environment doesn’t support healthy boundaries. Thank you for raising your voice on such a critical issue for our future generations.
