INTRODUCTION:
COVID-19 pandemic outbreak originated from Wuhan,China which has spread around 70 countries and it is the first non-severe acute respiratory syndrome epidemic. The important measures taken to control the COVID-19 spread is lockdown, but it is difficult to follow for many people and it is especially very difficult for the parents to manage their children during this lock down (Kumar et al., no date; Kalra, Kalra and Kumar, 2020). Children will never stay still in a place but this lockdown trapped them inside the house which makes them bored and inactive . The main role of parents is to make them cheer and happy and not let them get depressed. There are many ways to make them active and cheerful (Chen et al., 2019). Many parents never got the chance to spend time with their children due to work, but this lock down is a good opportunity for them to spend more time with them and understand their needs clearly ((Kumar et al., no date; Castaldi et al., 2020). The lockdown amidst the coronavirus outbreak has been especially tough on teens and parents, across the world. In London, instances being reported of rebellious teens going outside homes breaking the coronavirus lockdown rules , the Police Federation came up with the idea of fining parents if their teen children refuse to follow the rules ((Lamba, 2020). In India, the police departments are not taking any serious measures, they are just counselling them without any fine or punishment. With schools and colleges shut, teens are spending most of their time at home and parents say that they are finding it quite challenging to keep them indoors (Ray and Subramanian, 2020). Make them do any work and keep them active, always teach them moral values, interact with them and don’t let them watch TV for a long time or any other channels like YouTube instead of that make them read books which helps them to grow their knowledge and share your daily chores which encourages them . Make them do meditation and yoga daily Which helps their mind to be calm, clear and cook their favourite dishes which makes them happy.The educational systems globally is affected due to COVID-19 pandemic, leading to the near-total closures of schools, universities and colleges (Wu et al., 2019),(Ke et al., 2019).
Governments all over the world have closed educational institutions which are taken as a measure to control the spread of COVID-19. As of 24 May 2020, approximately 1.725 billion learners are affected currently due to this school closure is the response to the pandemic (Ma et al., 2019). According to UNICEF monitoring, more than 153 countries have implemented national closures and 24 have implemented local closures, impacting about 98.6 percent of the global student population (Mohan, Veeraraghavan and Jainu, 2015). School closures impact not only students, teachers, and families. but have far-reaching economic and societal consequences (Li et al., 2020). School closures in response to the pandemic have shed light on various social and economic issues, including student debt,digital learning,food insecurity,and homelessness,as well as access to childcare, healthcare, housing, internet and disability services (Menon, Priya and Gayathri, 2016)
Over the past decade there has been numerous research on cancer biology(Priya, Jainu and Mohan, 2018), nanotechnology (Wang et al., 2019)cytotoxicity analysis(Gan et al., 2019) various in vivo researches(Ramya, Vishnu Priya and Gayathri, 2018; Rengasamy et al., 2018).testing and evaluating the goodness of various natural food substituents(Shukri et al., 2016)All these researches are very much important to mankind(Rengasamy et al., 2016;
Ponnulakshmi et al., 2019).But this survey is no way related to any of the high end researches instead it concentrates on the current situation.The aim of this survey is to assess the awareness of urban parents of Chennai to manage their kids below 12 years amidst the lockdown.
Our team has rich experience in research and we have collaborated with numerous authors over various topics in the past decade (Ariga et al., 2018; Basha, Ganapathy and Venugopalan, 2018;

MATERIALS AND METHOD:
Study Design
A survey was conducted among urban parents of children below 12 years old, who belong to Chennai, to evaluate their knowledge and awareness to manage their children during lockdown.
The sample size of the study was 100. Ethical approval and informed consent from the participants were obtained. The study was conducted in the month of May, 2020.
Survey Instrument
The survey instrument which was a questionnaire was prepared after extensive review of the existing literature. The questionnaire was reviewed and amendments were made to improve the clarity of the questions to eliminate ambiguous responses. The questionnaire consisted a total of
12 questions. The questionnaire was shared to parents of children who were below 12 years old belonging to Chennai, using online survey platform.
Data Analysis
Only completed surveys were taken for analysis and the incompleted surveys were eliminated.
The statistical test used is descriptive statistics. All the responses obtained were tabulated and reliability of the data was checked. The statistics done using SPSS software, Chi-square test was done to check the association and a p value of 0.05 was said to be statistically significant.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION:
From the survey results, it was evident that the Indian parents try to manage their lockdown period effectively with their kids. Getting involved in daily chores not only make their children more bonded to them, but also make them understand the pains and the reality of the world.
When asked the study participants based on their opinion in managing childrens during lockdown, where 46% of the participants find it difficult to manage their children and 54% of them do not feel the same(Figure 1).When asked about the participants based on their opinion to make the children aware of the current lockdown, where 95% of parents were able explain the current situation to their children and 5% were not able to explain(Figure 2)Explaining the reason behind lockdown and social distancing is very important to the children who are less than 12 years old. To this view 100% of the male participants were strong enough to share their thoughts to their kids, this gives a better understanding of dos and don'ts for the children.Our institution is passionate about high quality evidence based research and has excelled in various fields ( (Pc, Marimuthu and Devadoss, 2018; Ramesh et al., 2018; Vijayashree Priyadharsini, Smiline Girija and Paramasivam, 2018; Ezhilarasan, Apoorva and Ashok Vardhan, 2019;
