Drug use amongst youth point to greater societal issues, pundits say
An education official and a medical practitioner are calling on residents to be more circumspect in their analysis of a controversial photograph that captured students during a police search at the Pares Secondary School recently.
Principal of the Ottos Comprehensive School, Foster Roberts said the recent discovery of drugs on one of the school compounds highlights issues that are prevalent in today’s society.
He said, in general, adults are condoning wrongdoing, not only among themselves but among children too, and this behaviour needs to change.
“So, then and therefore, what do we expect?” Roberts queried. “Children see certain things happening in society, they are going to act [them] out in our schools.”
