Dr. Paula with school children

Worth Noting:
- Teach the young girls virtues too, promote moral education so that the children can grow upright and fear malice and chalice if not evil doing.
- Junior youth and adults must have certain organizations structures that they adhere and join as they mature for Accountability, as a man or woman that just flow without affiliation and responsibilities tend to have too much time that end up being too much to bear and garden shrubs instead of fruits.
- A man who joins football, gym has a routine to follow, a sense of family gives a balance, however not all of us shall marry, and in case of boredom, organizations like church are ones family.
Schools are opening and question is the kids safe in the schools?
When we did grade 7 or equivalent standard seven there were children with already matured bodies, I recall some of the fourteen year olds and the thirteen year olds who were clean, nice and well fitted by the uniform being the girlfriends of certain temporary teachers, going into the memory lane of the junior secondary school, during the sports trips there were some girls who openly had affairs with the educators, and remember these are sixteen year and fifteen year olds!
Form two was the learning curve each year as the teenage pregnancy numbers escalated each year and the fathers being some educators.
Things have not change much as last year 2022 on the last quarter the statistics showed central district council leading teenage pregnancy numbers and Gender based violence statistics.
This brings us to the question in Africa alone how many kids are dropping out of school due to this?
Lockdown showed us that the children are worst unsafe at home as breaking news papers headlines locally and regionally showed higher numbers of rape, Gender based violence and higher teenage pregnancies were recorded after the lock down!
When will our kids be kids?
Let our younger girls grow to determine the right time to engage in relationships and family planning.
We as adults we are responsible for nurturing these kids, protecting them.
Our children are the future. Imagine how many future lives are destroyed by lust and abuse?
Stop abusing children and women!
The boy child faces abuse too, from both women and men.
Some men face abuse silently too with fear of judgment and being rendered weak!
Some police officers laugh at some men when they report cases of abuse!
Kindly stop abusing men, and let’s live amicably!
This must be our resolution!
Stop 🛑 abuse!
Where there is peace, freedom there is liberty.
Every child, woman, man must feel safe in their surroundings. Man fear another man or his dangerous possessions, and the ability for a place to be secure it comes with the availability provided by the adults in that particular area.
Teach young children to be kind, loving so that they can grow up to be respectful and loving to eliminate vices that harden the heart and makes the soul to harbor evil intentions.
Teach the young girls virtues too, promote moral education so that the children can grow upright and fear malice and chalice if not evil doing.
Junior youth and adults must have certain organizations structures that they adhere and join as they mature for Accountability, as a man or woman that just flow without affiliation and responsibilities tend to have too much time that end up being too much to bear and garden shrubs instead of fruits.
A man who joins football, gym has a routine to follow, a sense of family gives a balance, however not all of us shall marry, and in case of boredom, organizations like church are ones family.
Note that abuse happen in family set ups the most, study has shown up that some abused adults tend to reciprocal abuse as they grow, each partner once beginning a relationship must try by all means to include friends, pastors so as to have pre-marital counseling to see the background of the partner and get a glimpse of the unknown fears cleared, chances are one can still abuse spouse, kids even after counseling and right channels then what?
Speak out, walk away from unfulfilling relationships. Children must go through therapy and trauma counseling if abuse occurs, however each adult must try to avoid abuse to happen by teaching kids the sound alarm tactics for anything that might happen to them.
Women must prioritize kids not a breadwinner, believe your child, know them, so that in future no one can accuse them of lying and confusion strikes.
Men must love each kid regardless of the biology or DNA, because love alone is the essence of peace and respect as well as humility, for if one loves all the children then he will not think of them as objects to be used in sexual ways or abuse them in any other way.
Let’s sound alarm if we note abuse.
Stop abuse of women and children!
Protect women and children!
