I wish to remind parents and guardians about their responsibilities. These days, parents are taken up by work ‘abandoning’ their children to maids. Leaving them would not have been a problem but the question is, do maids have time for the children? Maids cannot perform all the domestic work and at the same time watch over every thing the children are doing including feeding them in time. It is also unfortunate that some of these maids are the ones spoiling our children especially telling them words that parents would wish their children not to hear. However much you may be having a demanding job, children also need you parents at home. They need to talk to you; they need your love, affection and correction when they go wrong. Playing your role as parents at home will reduce the rate at which children are violated consequently children will have the desired manners. Ends
