Society should take the lead in guiding the young

Are parents really to blame for the unwanted pregnancies of their children? The Speaker of the National Assembly, Rose Mukantabana tends to think so, Teenage pregnancies have haunted society for ages, in ancient Rwanda it was one of the most feared of taboos that came with serious repercussions, society was your judge and executioner. The Speaker could have a valid argument by blaming parents of the loose morals of their children, but that is just a tip of the iceberg. Today, young students spend more time with their teachers than with their parents, sometimes the latter only cast fleeting glances at their children doing their homework and therefore spend very little quality time with their offspring, leave alone shaping their upbringing.
