One night after dinner, a teacher began checking her students’

homework while her husband was strolling around the house, playing his
favourite game on his phone.

On reading the last note, she began crying while silent tears rolled

down her cheeks.

Her husband saw this and asked, “Why are you crying, my dear? What happened?”

The wife replied, “Yesterday at school, I gave my 1st-grade students a

task to write something on the topic ‘My Wish’.”

“Okay, but why are you crying?”

The wife woefully replied,  “Listen to what one of my students wrote:

My wish is to become a smartphone. My parents love smartphones very

much. They care about it so much that sometimes they forget to care
about me.

When my father gets home from work, he says he’s tired but he always

has time for his phone. Not for me.

If my parents are doing some important work but the phone rings, it

gets answered within a single ring. But they never pay attention to
me, even if I am crying.

They play games on their phones, not with me.

When they are talking to someone on their phone, they won’t stop to

listen to me. Even if I am trying to say something important.

That’s why my wish is to become a smartphone.”

After listening to the note, the husband got emotional and asked the

wife, “Who wrote this?”.

She replied, “Our son”.

Gadgets are beneficial, but their purpose is to bring us ease, not to

cease the bonds of love we have with our family and loved ones.

Children can observe and understand everything that happens to them &

around them. These things get imprinted on their minds with an
everlasting effect. Let’s take the care that’s required to ensure that
they grow up with the right impression.

members then watch the video I created on the subject of “How to
improve relationships with families - your spouse, kids, and parents
and live a simple life.”
