The Director of the Light of the World School Complex at New Aplaku
in the Ga South Municipality, Mrs Esther Hamilton, has advised children
not to neglect their aged parents because they (parents) did not care
for them.
“Do not seek vengeance because the Lord says vengeance is
His,” Mrs Hamilton advised when she addressed a forum on the care of the
aged at the school on Friday.
She said children should not
refuse to care for their parents because they (parents) did not care for
them during their schooldays.
The educationist, however,
noted that some parents, especially fathers, shirked their
responsibility towards the education of their children, and added that
did not give grounds to children to refuse to care for them, especially
when the children were in the position to do that.
She said it
was a painful experience for parents to neglect their education, which
she said, “holds the future of the children”, but urged children to
forgive their parents and support them, especially in their old age.
“Your
parents did not care for your education, but God who created you found a
way to support your education. That is enough for you to forgive your
parents and care for them,” she added.. - GNA
