Article: What Media Is Really Doing to Our Children

Media is no longer just entertainment. It is raising our children alongside us.

In this powerful episode of Balmurti Online, Lata Hirani explores the invisible damage media can do when left unchecked. A violent headline, a manipulative ad, a careless joke, a mobile used as a babysitter, an internet space with no guardrails, all of it slowly shapes a child’s mind, emotions, and sense of reality.

This episode is a wake-up call for parents. Not to panic. Not to reject technology entirely. But to become present, alert, and intentional. Because childhood is too precious to leave in the hands of algorithms and noise.

A must-listen for parents, teachers, and caregivers trying to protect attention, empathy, and innocence in a media-saturated world.

Story: The Brave Kano

Writer: Vasudev Sodha

In the cold winter season, a bored leopard wanders out of the Gir forest and enters a peaceful village. Panic spreads everywhere. People are too frightened to go to the fields or even fetch water. Then a young boy named Kano steps forward and says he will face the leopard himself.

What begins as a brave decision turns into a gripping adventure through a dark field, a deep well, and a life-or-death moment that tests Kano’s courage. With presence of mind and determination, Kano survives the night and turns fear into victory. 

A thrilling children’s story about bravery, quick thinking, and the power of staying calm in danger.
