KIDS CAN'T BE FORCED TO BEHAVE

accreditation

Many parents are living in shame because their children are drug addicts.

Their shame comes from the fact that society blames them for their children’s bad behaviour.

No sane parent wants their child to become an addict.

Some parents go out of their way to be loving and generous to their kids, with some going as far as spoiling their children.

Sadly, some youngsters still insist on walking down the road to destruction.

While it is true that parents make mistakes, we must accept that everyone is responsible for the decisions they make.

Many people make foolish decisions in their youth.

By the time they realise the error of their ways, the mess they are in is too deep to escape.

While parents have the responsibility to guide their children, they cannot have absolute control over their decisions.

We must open our eyes and see the problem for what it is, instead of blaming parents.

You can put the blame on poverty, your parents or your community, but in the end every young person must look in the mirror and take responsibility for the person they have become.
