Christine Katende asks different people about what they wish their mothers had told them.
To raise children.Frank Mayanja Baine, spokesperson of Uganda Prisons Services
I wish she told me how hard it is to raise children. Growing up, mother used to tell us how she wanted us to have children but she did not at any one time say of how hard it was or it is to raise a child. With parenting, everything that happens to a child affects you directly as a parent like when they fall sick, when they are probablysent away from school for fees. It is always a parent’s responsibility to groom a child and when they go astray, the whole blame is shifted to the parent, not the child no matter how wrong they would have gone. I surely thought that when you give birth, you just sit and watch the child grow so long as you can provide

This month, the two hospitals will offer free and discounted tests and screening for fibroids.
At 50 per cent discount, a number of women will be able to have abdominal scans, breast and cervical cancer scans and Pap smear with free consultations on fibroid-related conditions.
The campaign follows an article published in Daily Monitor on February 8 in which popular radio personality Robina Mbabazi, aka Bina Babie, detailed her battle with fibroids and the misconception that even without going to hospital, one will get healed.
This will be followed by an editorial driven campaign on fibroids from March 8 to 31. The focus of the campaign is to draw public attention to the devastation that fibroids can cause, addressing its risk factors, who can get fibroids and why, treatment options, financial implications of treating fibroids, how the discovery of fibroids affects relationships and how having fibroids can impact one’s fertility.
