Parents are the most responsible persons in the upbringing of the children. Positive parenting supports a child to become good person and citizen. We always think seriously about the value-based education, formation and training given to the children to be effective citizens of the society. However, we think less of the formation and education given to the parents who have to mould the behaviour and character of the children. In the modern society where the challenges to family life are more, where the parents struggle to meet the expectations of the children, a parent should be equipped to handle the responsibility of parenting with proper knowledge, attitude, aptitude and skills. If so, parents need proper training and education. Mixed methodology is used for the study. The result of this study shows that majority of the parents do not have any orientation or training in preparation to their marital life or parental responsibility. Hence, the study comes out with the most important suggestion of need and importance of parenting education in the modern society.
Human rights are rights inherent to all human beings, whatever our nationality, place of residence, sex, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, language, or any other status. We are all equally entitled to our human rights without discrimination. These rights are all interrelated, interdependent and indivisible. (United Nations Human Rights, 2020). Sex workers’ rights encompass a variety of aims being pursued globally by individuals and organizations that specifically involve the human health, and labour of sex workers and their clients. This study draws upon the experience of sex workers in the field of “sex work as a job” and their understanding about Human Rights with reference to Amnesty International Policy. This case study tries to understand multiple and interjecting forms of discrimination and exclusion faced by sex workers, their views about “sex work” as job, their understanding of their rights to leave the job when they choose to, their perception on the need of decriminalizing sex work and the accessibility of sex workers with respect to judicial system and health care. The study was conducted in Trivandrum District, Kerala. The study reveals that sex workers are extremely harassed in the society and policies relating to human rights of sex workers exist but the implementation and knowledge about it is low.

The etching is a process of modifying the flat smooth surface to identify the structure, phases, and other effects such as the orientation of grains, deformation and distribution of solute elements. Due to the chemical reaction between the etchant and the detector material, some molecules of the detectors are removed. The etchant used for LR-115 detectors in the present study is aqueous NaOH solution with 2.5 N. The bulk etch rate has been estimated by varying the etching time, keeping the etching temperature constant. It has seen that, the bulk etch rate remains almost constant during etching. The result indicates that, rate of chemical etching is uniform in different intervals of etching time. The average bulk etch rate obtained from experiments was in good agreement with the standard value obtained from earlier experiments.
