A child's name is 'Tomorrow'
DR. AC OBHOLZER WRITES:
During the Covid-19 lockdown, girls lost school time. Many parents lost their employment. There was/is socio-economic distress.
There was an alarming increase in teenage pregnancies – experimenting with life, boredom and sugar daddies.
A third of teenagers who were pregnant, did not return to school. Their future is bleak and the unplanned child is handicapped, trapped in a cycle of poverty for life.
If you fail to plan (think ahead), you plan to fail
Put education (sex) before pro-creation (pregnancy). No child before voting age (18 years).
A street child, begging at robots, in school time, is a symptom of failure. The child has a low self-image and is locked into a predator survival mode. An unplanned, unwanted, unloved, unaffordable, neglected and abused child is condemned to failure in life through drugs, prison and poverty.
Fifty percent of Namibians live in shacks (symptom of poverty) without basic hygienic services. A third of adults are unemployed. The unemployment rate for school leavers (youth) reaches fifty percent.
The family unit is the key to stable society, not the individual. Parents, teachers, pastors and athletes are role models. Unfortunately, many children are the result of ejaculating nomadic “come and go men”, who pay no child maintenance.
Schools should have standard sex and relationship counselling, from the age of 12 years. Girls start menstruating often before high school. The MoHSS should be involved from age 14 years with the Ministry of Education, for weekly clinics with condoms / contraceptive advice and access – not to encourage sex, but to avoid mistakes.
The age for consensual sex is 16 years. This is too late for many. A child's name is “tomorrow”. It deserves food security, clothes, bed security, education, love, health and guidance from their parents. Too many “families” are handicapped by the absent father syndrome.
In today's socio-economic climate, aim for two children -replace parents (carrying capacity). This with discipline, education and a work ethic, was the key to China's Emergence as a world power.
