Educate Your Children On Sex-Related Issues
Mrs. Georgina Mensah of the Osu Correctional Home, has advised parents to educate their children on sex-related issues so as to broaden their knowledge, on the subject. She said failure by parents in educating their children on such aspect paved way for them to get information from their peers and other sources which did not augur well for their development. “As parents, there is the need to protect the rights of our children to help them become good citizens of our beloved country,” she added. Mrs. Mensah gave the advice at the Ga Presbytery Minister’s Spouse’s Conference in Accra. The symposium, which was on the theme, ‘The neglected child dysfunctional families and the effect on the child, “seeks to educate parents on the rights of children in the country. “It is the duty of every parent to teach its children about sexual behaviour to know what is permitted of them,” she added. She urged parents to use dialogue to address deviant behaviour among children. ASP Freeman Tettey, Public
