Worth Noting:
- While walking around the school compound one could easy spot a lady holding a baby some even attend their lectures with their babies while on their hands but it’s very much rare to find a man taking such a big task while in school.
- This issue has caused even some of the ladies to defer their studies so as to go back home and have a humble time to take care of their babies while at home since the pressure that they face in school does not favour them to both study and take care of their newborn.
In universities students are always free in that even some do start their families while studying in these institutions.
Some do go this way because pressure while to others it’s a personal decision that latter on leads them to some responsibility associated issues.
Love does not only entails staying together alone but it entails a lot and in that process some of the ladies do find affected in one way or the other leading to pregnancies while in the course of their studies. While some of the pregnancies are aborted some goes successful to delivery and this always becomes nightmare to most of the ladies since running two programs, studies and child care, is not an easy task as a student.
This task of child care is mostly left on hands of ladies while men do get engaged in other issues that makes them have no time for this extra programs, this task shouldn’t be left to one person only but the two should support each other to take care of their child .Its unfortunate that this is not the case to most since all the burden are left to the ladies.

Many of the ladies also pass through a mental torture due to a lot stress that they do face due to their current situation while studying hence their studies always do not go well as they may have planned.
Not also these young mothers who are affected but also other students who lives around them are affected with these since they have to engage in extra work that they are not part of. These young mothers may tend to ask help from their friends who lives around them to help them attend to their babies while they are busy something that shows extra allocated job to these students since they are not part of this.
Men should be advised to take action and come to rescue these young mothers, taking care of child should be a done with the both men and ladies since these children are not only for ladies but it should be two people’s responsibility. Let men also take that responsibility to help ladies since the child is for both of them hence they can’t escape from this task.
Let men come out and help for them to both have an easy talk of child care.
