This is my gesture of appreciation towards Dhirubai Ambani International School. It is for its efforts to rightly understand the need of the situation and taking wise and corrective measures to deal with the same.
Last week while going through the newspaper I got to read very pleasing news. It reported about the students of Dhirubai Ambani International School being indulged in drug addiction and substance abuse. When the same was brought to the notice of the authorities, instead of worrying about the bad publicity and reputation of the school the school rightly took a wise decision to send the students for counseling instead of expelling them from the school.
I appreciate the approach of the school coz; I believe that it has rightly understood the demand of the time. It is right in realizing the fact that the students are naïve to understand the thin line between right and wrong and they need a proper guidance to help them understand the difference and its significance in their life. Today with the demand of the life to maintain the status quo parents hardly get to spent quality time with their children. Knowing this, the next best person for guidance in their life are their tutors. And I am happy that Dhirububai Ambani International school has got good mentors to lead the students on right path.
I congratulate the school for their thoughtful decision. Hope other schools follow the same foot steps.

This is indeed a well written article. It was a positive sign that schools are now realizing the potential of counselling the students to the right track than reprimanding them.
yes, I too read about it and felt good.Most of the time the school authorities dont bother about all these things they dont want to be bothered or want to be involved...i feel this is a positive step...
yes u are right what the ambani's did really need appreciation. And i do hope the other educational institutions also take such steps rather than punishing the studients.
I congratulate Happy_Indian, Reena and Anna for expressing your views on the blog. I m glad to learn that all of you appreciate the school for its thoughtful action and expect others to follow the same.
But at the same time we need to understand that; We, as citizens, as parents do have enough rights to voice if we notice any school authority ruining any child's path of growth for some wrong reasons. And m sure the article in the newspaper has done its job of creating awareness amongst people.
Hi Shree, I really appreciate Schools effort.
But the statement "Today with the demand of the life to maintain the status quo parents hardly get to spent quality time with their children." I really don't appreciate.Today, if you got to ask parents a question whether they spend quality time with their children,There wont be many saying yes we do.If even we get to know 30% say we spend quality time with our children, does it mean rest 70% are drug addicts.Its really wrong to blame parents giving quality time.It can be a instance when parents give the children ample of money to have lavish life.
But this is also not a valid reason.It can be how matured the children is, does he understands the harmful effects of drugs.
And its a moral duty of our schools to teach them the harmful effects of such things.
