CHILDREN LIVE WHAT THEY LEARN

Children learn what they live; children live what they learn, do you remember that song, as I contemplate on the moral decadence of the society we live in. It just reminded me of that song,and makes me wonder if this true. Many parents have done their best in instilling values to their children, however children have choices and whether we like it or not they are going to exercise these choices.

"Vice has no friend…" So here we are again, that old familiar place… today we talk about alcohol abuse, tomorrow we will talk about marijuana and so on and so forth. Who has the answer to all these social ills? Note the headline…Alcohol abuse…costs Britain £22 billion a year.

GLIMPSES - SOCIAL PATTERNS


Over the years we have seen the exodus of people from one town to another, from one city to another city as parental choice over the education of their children becomes priority. Many parents reckon that the schools located in the cities give their children the edge necessary to get ahead in life and so the catchment areas of successful primary and secondary schools becomes the desirable area as parents endeavour to secure places for their children.
