Distraction

She was still trying to deliver a message. She kept explaining the concept for few more times. It seems that there was a reason for all that distraction. The classroom was quiet. There is no sounds coming from outside. But, their concentration is gone. The teacher had a tough time that first day of school.

The bell rang! It was an end of first school day. The seven year old boy gathered his stuff and went back home with his mother. In the car, she was trying to have a conversation with him about school. Apparently, he was seeing something invisible in the clear sky. Keeping him from paying attention to her.

They finally reached home. They had a short lunch. Then, he went straight to his room to play video games. His mom went to check up on him. As soon as she did, she realized it. She has seen it all at that moment. All those screens around home. All this technology. It has not given him advantage. Certainly, did not make him get along with others better, or be more relevant. There lies the reason for all the distraction. They caused some isolation and kept his mind focused on them the whole time. Then, she decided that it is time to isolate from the virtual world and get back to reality.
