Dimapur, Oct 5 (EMN): While appreciating the parents for walking an extra mile to let their children live their dreams, they were reminded of a bigger responsibility in shaping and moulding their lives to become responsible citizens.
This concern was expressed by Johny Ruangmei, Officer on Special Duty (OSD) of Nagaland State Disaster Management Authority (NSDMA), while speaking as the chief guest on the occasion of parents’ day celebration at St. Anthony School, Tenyiphe, on October 5. Stating that parents’ day is celebrated to convey love and gratitude to each parent for their support and sacrifice, he said it is important for students to tell how much they are grateful for providing every need they require to become a good citizen one day.

“Our children today live in a very advanced technological era, so both the parents and teachers should be well updated and prepared in bringing them up to be a responsible citizen if not it may have a destructive impact,” said Johnny.
Sharing story about a 13 year old boy who was hired by Google Company and well paid for his excellent work in developing programme, Ruangmei requested the parents to encourage their children to utilise their talent and ideas not only to get a government job but also to advance in the field of technology for a better earning.
Directing his speech towards the students, he questioned “if you don’t know where you are going, what is the purpose of your life? You will be lost one day.”
During the programme, parents were entertained with delightful folk songs, cultural dances, choreography and beat boxing. The welcome speech was delivered by the school principal, Rev. Fr. Sajan Joseph, while speech on behalf of the parents was delivered by Head GB of Tenyiphe, Nolesa Zhotso, and the vote of thanks was delivered given by the school vice principal, Rev. Fr. Dominic.
