Actor Manoj Bajpayee on Protecting Children from Cybercrimes: A Parent’s Perspective

Manoj Bajpayee has voiced his concerns about the growing threat of cybercrimes against children, following a similar incident faced by Akshay Kumar’s daughter. Bajpayee, a father himself, believes that protecting children from online harm should be a paramount concern. He emphasizes that merely having laws is insufficient; they must be enforced quickly and effectively, with immediate punishment for offenders. Bajpayee highlights that technology is essential for children’s education, comparing it to the atom bomb, which has both constructive and destructive applications. He advises parents to engage in open dialogue with their children, creating a safe space where children feel comfortable sharing any issues. He also encourages parents to address any incidents directly rather than hiding them.
