WE HAVE FAILED OUR CHILDREN
Sir,
It really gets to me when I hear politicians and other public officials describe the youth as ‘leaders of tomorrow’. Those who will be tomorrow’s leaders have a right to possess their today, I would imagine. As a country, we have failed our children. Through no fault of their own we have destroyed their future in a country that does not plan for their future. The country’s adult population has built a large national nest of adults for youths to watch and copy, exhibiting the worst kind of human behaviour.
Recklessness
These behaviour traits include recklessness, selfishness and other character traits, for which names have not been invented. Because of the irresponsibility of this group, Eswatini youth now have an anxiety syndrome over what will become of them and what the future holds.
Dream
They have no dream regarding this country. They do not lie awake thinking of that age-old question, what can one do for one’s country? They cannot dream for the country because they have not been handed any tools to dream; with, no good and fair system, no credible education.They have not been given many things.
