This newsletter is centred on the causes as well as solutions to rebellion and suicidal tendencies in youths
Looking back in retrospect as a young person, I had a very loving, caring, understanding and a "LISTENING" father who has supported my dreams and ambition.
This has strengthened my Adversity Quotient and built my resilience
Such that when I hit rock bottom and want to give up,
I keep reminding myself "DADDY LOVES ME REGARDLESS "
My advice to parents and guardians out there is that you LOVE, CARE, "LISTEN" and UNDERSTAND your children.
I wrote "listen" in quotes in the previous paragraph because most adults only TALK without LISTENING to their kids.
They dish out instructions without listening to what these kids have to say or try to even understand how they feel.
This is why alot of youths are rebellious and suicidal
To avoid this Parents do these to your kids :
??LOVE: If you don't, outsiders will lure them into illicit activities camouflaged as love
??CARE : Do it to them now. Later , when you are old , they will do the same to you. If you don't , they won't when you are old
??LISTEN: It gives them a sense of belonging and boosts their self-esteem
?? UNDERSTAND :This makes them have the assurance they have a support system they can always run to when they are in trouble
Hope this helps someone out there
A big shout out to all the amazing parents and guardians out there
You guys rock!

5 个月Being a parent is more than just birthing a child. Its important to care, listen (not talk and talk) and understand your child. Make the environment comfortable for your child to be free to talk and relate with you.
