We all are getting older, so definitely there should be a concrete view of the age in the way we speak, think, act, dress and act. The older you become, the wiser you should be.
Nowadays, higher institutions have been turned to avenues for teenagers to do things they were not permitted to do at home. The intention of such people is that since they were denied the opportunity of doing what they intended doing at home, and their parents are not around to rebuke them, they’ll think they have their life to live.
Some people get to school and forget the way they left their homes, their backgrounds, their problems, their desires, and their parents’ wishes. They attend lecture when they feel like attending. Ladies go to clubs, parties while some become prostitutes. The males turn out to be cultists and involve in other illegal acts.
Parents or guardians tend to be overprotective when it comes to children because a lot of things is happening around them which they don’t want them to be a victim of, but I think they are meant to give us the freedom of doing things on our own without intrusion so as to get used to it and not exceeding the limit of what we ought to do.
When you are given the chance to do things at home, I see no reason why you should come to school and become wayward except if you have the intention of doing it. When we heed to our parents’ warnings while at school, it will help us in been sincere in everything we indulge in as a good child to our parents.
