| Recently I met a young girl who narrated her experience with me. | |
| She left for the higher institution and fell among bad friends | |
| who engage in pre-marital sex, she confess that she began as a | |
| small innocent little girl in her local church. No sooner than | |
| she attained the age of puberty the problem of sex sets in with | |
| even her male age group or men fit to be her father. | |
| Most of our teenagers today are beautiful and admirable, but | |
| with the loose ideas about illicit sex today, this is slowly and | |
| steadily destroying them, I have also seen instances where a | |
| teen girl fell a victim to sampling by her classmates and adults | |
| and how I met an unwelcoming sight- piles of contraceptives, in | |
| her school bag, this even make it more unbearable, what idea of | |
| illicit sex do we have among our teenagers. This is the age of | |
| sex promiscuity, perversion and pills and I have no guarantee | |
| that the society is doing anything to even help the situation. | |
| Walking on any of our streets in the cities as today, you can | |
| hardly walk from one end of the street to another without you | |
| see signs of immorality. Our fashion experts daily create show | |
| that encourages it, in fact fashionable creations are made to | |
| hold and entice their victims, through the literature, magazine | |
| they patronize, film they watch and many more tempting | |
| television programmes that they feed their eyes and mind with. | |
| A visit to major schools will shock you on how sexual | |
| experimentation, exploration and promiscuity have become the | |
| trend. Thank God for Godly parents who will never stop praying | |
| for their children and telling their daughters and sons not to | |
| be part of it. | |
| Charity, they say begins at home, this is the period for parents | |
| to be directly in charge of the upbringing of their children, it | |
| requires them educating, and instilling discipline, leaving the | |
| upbringing of their children to house-helps, nannies, or even to | |
| the society is a disaster. Importantly they should leave by | |
| examples, as a good role models for them. | |
| How can we re-state the law of sex to these teenagers� | |
| communities, knowing fully well the stage of puberty is the most | |
| challenging period in their life time? You can be a source of | |
| help to them even if you aren�t a parent now, but as a brother | |
| and sister that they can confined in. Don�t say there is nothing | |
| you can do to help the situation; there are things you can do to | |
| save them. | |
| I understand that teenagers that have parents with low | |
| educational requirement or achievement, or those that are | |
| product of broken homes are at a higher risk of sexual | |
| promiscuity, but I have also seen people in this category that | |
| have become icons, all because they did not allow their | |
| predicament to pull them down, So what am say is that, whether | |
| you are a product of a broken home, or raised by a single | |
| parent, you can decide not to be a party to illicit sex. | |
| Another issue of discuss is that most teenagers are negatively | |
| influence by the peer groups, social norms and the pressure to | |
| have sex. Everybody should be a facilitator, proper education | |
| and information and counseling is necessary to supplement | |
| parental responsibilities and there is a need for follow up | |
| I believe that lack of communication is inevitably compromises | |
| this problem; at Lola foundation we are committed to bridge the | |
| gap. we are not reluctant to discuss sexuality and other | |
| important issues openly, because we have realized that the | |
| consequence of not properly educating the teenagers will only | |
| make them to find answers to sex-related questions on their own | |
| from contaminated sources that are likely to give them wrong | |
| answers. Learning the truth about sex is much better than | |
| learning false info from peers. | |
| while growing up, I noted that the road was not easy since | |
| youthful problems kept coming my way but my mother was always on | |
| the lookout so that when peer pressure is taking the upper hand | |
| in my life, she could knelt and prayed with me until I was | |
| recovered. Let this also be the testimony of those teenagers who | |
| are already given up to base mind. @ LOLAFOUNDATION | |
