Effective and objective parenting go down the drain in Nigeria as gross misconception of modern life has been talking to ignore the embracement of moral ,and cultural acceptable values in parenting .
looking at the lifestyle of our young Teenagers following the negative norms currently uphold in Nigerian society , a photo report by Mr ifanyi king in the early hours of Sunday the 17th December , 2023 shows a group famale Teenagers indecently dressed in painted hair .
The photo could leave some patriotic members of the society wondering if these girls have parents or not, and what and how are their parents thinking at seeing them .
In Lagos , the “Awala” ( street or outside life has been trending , leaving negative influence of our young upgrowing teenagers.
How can parent subscribe to seeing their young Children of age 16 -18 years waisting their life moving from one street Party and hotel to another.
Report from Lagos shows the growing rate of under age children who ought to be in school loiting in the streets , with Area boys , giving rise in the number of out of school children in the state .
It’s been seen that , the display of “hook up ” business in social media has also contributed to such negative influence as teenagers have access to mobile technology devices.
The role of the parents, government and religious bodies in moulding young lives through emphasis on moral and cultural behavioral values is left vacant as National indiscipline is grossly embraced.
Fear of a complete lack of good and responsible Nigerian citizens in the future holds high as the norms practice today significantly contests again the phrase ” children are the leaders of tomorrow”
Lagos is made congested with such high level of public immoral life which government and security Agency and parents should fight against
it’s rather painful seeing Army and police guiding in occasions and birthdays by this street boys and girls who are without legal source of personal revenue , no voters card nor National I’d card.
Lawlessness life styles accommodated has contributed to the growth of internal insecurity strength at the grassroot level up to the nation level .
Government , Religious bodies and parents need to wake up from the Right side as we look at life and ensure our society is morally healthy.
