Sir
We all have been invited to the new world order where governments have introduced laws that govern the whole sphere of domestic affairs; where government have empowered the youth to go against family values and rules and allowed them to make their sole decisions without the parents guidance. Where is this taking us? Governments have introduced social grants to address the issue of poverty but it seems as if the youth have misunderstood this. Perhaps these social grants are mainly to keep them within the poverty line. The government system has ensured that the gap between rich and poor is immense and not bridged. This is achieved through the inequality of basic services such as health-care and education. I maintain that we shall never be equal in this world. How can we be equal if we come from different families, holding different qualifications? How can we be equal if you wake up every morning and go to work while someone sleeps the whole day, without any income? In this world some people are more equal than others; some are richer than others, while some are poorer than others.
In this new world order everything has been distorted to suit the needs of a few individuals, eg the music produced today does not make sense like the music produced back in the 80s and 90s. Some artistes have lost the tune and opted to feed the market with rubbish. The music, movies and soapies of today only promote drugs, alcohol, half-naked women, and promote women as the submissive subject to men at large; it promotes life partners that are cheating, promotes lies and being sexual active as the best thing ever. I maintain that the media and government have badly influenced the youth of today to be doomed.
The educators spend more time restoring order in classrooms due to learners misbehaving and not allowing teaching and learning to take place. This has led to less hours of teaching and learning and as a result learners fail, or do not pass well, at the end of grade 12. We are producing people who cannot think for themselves and only a few will manage to break the cycle of poverty at home. The learners of today rule at home and at school and as a result educators only teach just to pass the learners through the system. Some educators fear some learners because these learners have become monsters and governments have given the learners more rights. Learners have developed a neo culture were education is not essential, were respect has been lost. These learners come from dysfunctional families were education is not important, therefore not supported at all. Parents have lost the touch and control over their own children and educators may not control these learners alone. It takes the “community to raise a child”. Let’s go back to our core values.
