Mrs Dodie Govender of Shakaskraal writes: Why are so many children prone to be addicted to alcohol, tobacco and drugs?
These substances have lethal cancer-causing components. Cancer is life threatening.
Their young minds and bodies are not meant to withstand the ravages of these substances.
So why would intelligent children imbibe these toxic substances? All addiction leads to negative behavioural change and their relationship with family and community becomes confrontational.
Their primary focus is always on feeding their addiction and all acts of criminality is the consequence. Young people, don’t let your addiction ruin your whole life and future.
Every time you pay for drugs you contribute towards the wealth of the drug dealers while you live in poverty.
Prove to yourself, you are far more intelligent than drug dealers. Submit yourself into a drug rehab and cleanse your mind and body of your addictions.
You, your family and the community will be so very proud of you. Be the master of your destiny because you can.
Those who manufacture, supply and make drugs available to children are no better than murderers and rapists.
They are most hated and despised by all. Even Satan would not befriend them.
