Let’s Watch Over Our Children During This Festive Season-Benjamin Natui
Ngenyilel Ward MCA Benjamin Natui has asked parents to keep watch over their children during this long December holiday in a bid to shape their character and behavior.
He says if Children are not taken good care of can lead to students engaging in mischief and wrong behaviour which in return can ruin their lives.
“Parents should ensure that they fully take up their role of guiding their children when they are still young by safeguarding how they spend their free time,” he said
“Parents can determine their children’s future character by disciplining them when they are still young through limiting their freedom, keeping them occupied as well as knowing the company they keep,” the Ngenyilel Ward MCA.
Natui further said that mothers need to stay very close to their girls as well as give them sex education noting that girls have fallen prey to dangers associated with irresponsible sexual behavior ranging from Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs), early pregnancies, regular use of Emergency Pills which risks their reproductive health, drug abuse among others.
He further advised parents not to misuse their funds on unnecessary ceremonies putting in mind that thye are supposed to pay their children free at the beginning of the month.
“As we celebrate let us keep in mind that we have January where we are supposed to pay fees for our children therefore let us not misuse our money on unnecessary ceremonies,” he added.
