Dear Parent,
The sad truth is, we cannot be with our children all the time and they will find a way to have sex at an early age if they want to. Do you realise how lucky you are that she trusts you? Don’t betray that confidence. It is your crucial weapon to guide her to a proper lifestyle.
Call her into a chatty conversation, where you explain the importance of abstinence till she is through with studies. Bring in the religious, cultural and scientific aspects to discourage her from sex due to excitement. Insist that such a relationship may leave her devastated if she lets her guard loose. Don’t kill her. Be grateful that she told you about it.
He has ran off for six days
My boyfriend and I have been together for three years and I am pregnant. Last month, his ex-girlfriend and mother of his two other children returned from abroad, where she had been for five years. He had told me it was over but he went to meet her and he has not been home since. I am devastated. His family is supportive and assures me he will return. He has not even called me. I love him so much. What should I do?
Abandoned
Are you sure he ran away with her? The time you have been together and the fact that you are pregnant would indicate there is something worth salvaging here. And since they have not come to chase you out of the house means they recognise you, which is a confidence line. But get the whole family involved in the search. But take it easy for the sake of your unborn child and your condition. But don’t give up easily because your stakes high.
