1. Joy, happiness, enthusiasm, trolling, rolling, kicking, running, fighting, playing with other children are natural qualities of the children. Children are moulded as memory chips to store information’s, due to faulty pattern of educational system and to download them in the examinations to prove their memory capacity which is the yardstick to assess and measure the alleged merits of the children. Bundle of joy and enthusiasm, emotions, curiosity make the innocence of a child. The said innocence of the child is being robbed of by "ambitious" parents, "taskmaster" teachers and "result oriented" school managements by prescribing irrelevant books in the very young age itself. Instead of learning with joy, the children end up rot memorizing, with fear and stress, which in no way could help the children or the parents. Instead of making creative minds, the system only does destruction of younger minds.
