Dear Lalitha

I would like to start this by nominating a comment received on a particular blog. Here is the link to the blog and the comment was posted by Amihere. I will copy/paste the comment as well. I hope this is the right procedure to nominate a Comment.

Blog:
What will your child gain through reading habit? - IndusLadies

Comment:
I don’t disagree with you of what you said about reading. But I am not sure whether a child will take up reading just because we urge him to do so stating all the positive things s/he will develop from it. The best way to develop the habit is to lead by example. I am an avid reader and I proudly say everyone that I got the habit from my dad. I never remember anyone saying me to read books. But I remember seeing my dad most of the free times with a book in his hand, reading it carefully. He sometimes forewords us quotes from the book he is reading, he gifts us book for special occasions (an indirect way of asking to read ). He has a good collection of books, most of them non-fictions, and thus did we (Siblings & me) love to spend our time with books.
But I do disagree with you in a few views…” instead of watching the idiot box, gossipping.., outing with friends ,wasting time on social sites” I don’t think all these are unnecessary. T.V is no long an idiot box now, it imparts them good knowledge if the channels they watch are good one’s like NatGeo, Animal World,BBC also some other programs in other few channels. Outing with friends also is a necessary thing in limits.If a child spends his entire time indoors with books, he is going to grow up a book worm.An active well networking child is always preferred to a bookworm.Also the social networking sites also is becoming kind of a necessary evil.It helps them to keep track of old friends. Only thing is that all these should be in limits, anything in excess is bad.

Dear K2S,

Thanks for kickstarting the nominations for October. You have an eye for wonderful posts/comments.

The above nominated comment by Ami is so exhaustive and nothing more can be added on the same. She has given a very balanced reply to the said blog. Kudos Ami.. keep coming.

K2S do keep nominating as this gives an impetus to the blogger.

Dear Lalitha

I would like to nominate Sheeba Vinod's blog for the October nomination. The link is
Fraility Thy Name is 'not' Woman - IndusLadies Fraility thy name is not woman.

The post throws light into the plight of women when they have to move outside from the safe precincts of their house. it also shows how if women can stand up for protecting themselves with out being meek. Many times silence is taken as consent by the cunning wolves in the garb of men . Lets all stand up and protest when required as we have to guard our dignity,
Women also should not tolerate these kind of behavior by men thinking that it would attract the whole attention of others.
thanks for the nice post sheeba.

Dear Chitra,

That was a super blog by Sheeba..It not only throws light on the plight of women but also brings the message that women should not be dormant to these kind of issues. She cannot act spineless and take injustice... whether it is at home or outside.

Sheeba..a very eye opening and thought provoking blog...kudos dear.
