  1. nothing much to comment this time as i have posted similar type of issue like previous news. Modern lifestyle and many other factors in society have incited many problems in our community. Parents are not doing enough in nurturing and providing guidances to thier children. They seem to focus more on their works. Hence, i think parental guidances is one of the important measures that can be used to solve this problems.

  2. In my opinion, teenagers nowadays are lack of moral guidance. Moral is something that to be slowly forgotten by recent youngsters. Many cases of immoral behaviours can be seen everyday on newspaper. Well, it is a sad trend. Perhaps the society should do something to improve the condition.
