Our world is rotten. Zero morals, zero principles and cruelty is the order for the day.

I often hear people say someone must be the bigger person when two people are arguing which in turn mean one of them must decide to be mature and wise enough to end the dispute peacefully.

Whereas in the case of teenage pregnancy there are two players at hand- the teenager and in most cases the Adult male.

It’s evident and obvious who is to be blamed, who’s is the cruel selfish bastard . How can anyone in their right mind sleep with someone their firstborn child’s age, who does that?

It’s also an indication that they can rape their own children , wow the world is rotten, such despicable lack of discipline.

I guess it’s a hardwired attribute of foolishness, idiots walking amongst us.

There is a saying that says: “do unto others as you would like them to do unto you” if you go out of your way to destroy the child next door, be warned that the same fate shall fall upon your own child.

Research has it that 40% of children in Mzansi are sexually abused which means Mzansi is stuck with 40% of broken, dark future individuals who will possibly not add value to economy for the country.

The thing about abuse is that if it doesn’t reflect in you as a child, it will definitely cripple you from becoming a functional adult and you will not be able to snap out of it.

Many people try to deal with it in different ways, some kids will be promiscuous,  some abuse alcohol and drugs, basically many will engage in self hate, self destructive activities.

I mean if I’m a sweet, beautiful and fresh 16 year old with a bright future and sleep with a 52 year old man that’s a clear sign of self loathing.

How can I learn to love myself? That will take time but if my family is supportive and understands me enough to notice that I was abused or molested or I’m unwell then they’d be hope for me to reach my destination in my future.

But as  much as family and friends can try, the fight might be worn but the battle will not be conquered because there would still be predators out there trying their luck with a broken child, enticing and selling fake dreams and fake happiness to a poor broken child.

Most children are coming from broken homes, fatherless upbringing, so deep down this kids have empty spaces that feel as if they need to be filled. We all need someone to get somewhere.

Most importantly we need unconditional love that’s the only thing that can save the world.

The devil does indeed wear Prada because the root/ image of the abuser are men in expensive cars and expensive clothing of which if you saw him in the street, you will give him respect he does not deserve.

The men have started the trend that’ns why even older women are now dating younger men. Men cheat with youger kids then their wives sleep with younger men.

Here is what I think should happen: I’ve seen in some movies where if the police catch a man trying to buy a prostitute, he got arrested. This practice should apply to men who claim to be blessers, sugar daddies etc.

If police saw such blasphemy they should arrest the man

This would be the start of change because let’s face it, a teenager will not be able to properly think for Herself, she will get trapped by this evil men.

NO ONE SHOULD EVER BLAME THE CHILD BECAUSE A CHILD IS WITHOUT WISDOM AND PROPER KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING.

Parents must teach their kids properly about sex that’s also extremely important for teenage to teenager pregnancy.

” The Bible says: my people perish because of lack of knowledge.
