Answer:

I wouldn't say that the bitter lesson from the that happened in my life was part of my destiny. In fact, I couldn't but remember this particular incident that later came to shape my life adversely. However hard I tried to forget the incident, its ugly memory always come to hunt me.

     I was the third child of a family of four where our lives were regulated by religious doctrines. My father was a clergyman, so we, his children were brought up in a strict and regimented home where things that could be tolerated by other families were forbidden. I grew up as a child in this family until I gained admission into a mission school in a neighbouring city and I had to leave home for a boarding secondary school. I had to live in a hostel and so for the first time, I had the opportunity of mixing with girls from various homes as my school was a girls' school.

     I still remembered the warning of my mother when she was about to leave me after assisting me in carrying my load into my hostel. Shade, you must not forget the home you came from. You must not disappoint your father and me. Be guided by all the religions teachings you have been taught both at home and in the church." After saying these words, my mother with tears cascading down her cheeks, reluctantly entered into the car that brought me and the driver drove off.

     The warning of my mother echoed in my ear until I fell into the trap set for me by my friends, Susan and Jennifer. Before this time, I was highly regarded by my teachers and mates as a girl who would never want to come near anything that could tarnish her image. Most times, I kept to myself so as to avoid ugly incidences that could make me disappoint my parents. While some of my mates engaged in social activities like sneaking out of school to attend parties, I shunned such things.

     This good reputation of mine was one day tarnished by the bitter experience I had. One open day when we were permitted, as boarders, to visit town. Jennifer and Susan prevailed on me to accompany them to town on a visit to Jennifer's uncle who had just arrived the country from Britain. Jennifer was a native of the city but lived in the same hostel with me in school When we got to Jennifer's house. we were welcomed by three boys whom Jennifer said were her cousins. While we were waiting for Jennifer's uncle who we were told was resting upstairs, we were served drinks. This is what I could remembered until the second day when I woke up to find myself on a hospital bed in a hospital in the town. Unknown to me. Susan and Jennifer must have conspired with Jennifer's cousin to lace my drinks I was served with alcohol and sleeping pills so as to make it easy for me to be raped by her cousins. As I was told, I was indeed raped.

     The incident later became a scandal in my school and I was expelled in my final year. As if this was not enough, three months later, my parents discovered that I was pregnant. This incident traumatized my parent and I was disowned by my father. I had to flee to my uncle's house to have the baby.  

     The reality of this ugly incident now dawn on me. Saddled with a grown-up boy, no man is ready to marry me and my father died three years ago without forgiving me just I also find it difficult to forgive Susan and Jennifer despite their efforts to seek my forgiveness. I now go about with a heavy conscience with the fear that this may ruin my Christian life. But I learn a lesson that it is not good to trust anyone. I had to learn that lesson in a very hard way. Indeed, it was the biggest lesson of my life.

Modem parents have failed<br>In parenting<br>Defending debate​
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

There are so many things that can affect a child's success, including socioeconomic status, the environment they live in, and their parents’ education level.

Though it can be difficult for studies to determine what parenting techniques are ideal since researchers usually don't follow families long-term, there are certain parental behaviors that scientists have found could be linked to problems in children, like depression and anxiety, later in life.

1. They don't encourage their kids to be independent.

Being independent could help adolescents resist peer pressure. Brennan Linsley/AP

In 1997, a study at Vanderbilt University found that parents who psychologically controlled their children created to a host of negative outcomes for kids, including low self-confidence and self-reliance.

Encouraging children — especially teens — to be independent can be a good thing, especially in enhancing their ability to resolve conflict and have interpersonal relationships, according to this study in the Journal of Research on Adolescence.

Additionally, this study found evidence that more independence could lead to an increase in teens' ability to resist peer pressure.

2. They yell at their kids — a lot.

A 2013 study out of the University of Pittsburgh found evidence that harsh verbal discipline like shouting, cursing, or using insults may be detrimental to kids' well-being in the long-term.

The two-year study also found that harsh verbal discipline had comparable negative effects — such as behavioral problems and depressive symptoms — to studies that focused on physical discipline.

“It's a tough call for parents because it goes both ways: problem behaviors from children create the desire to give harsh verbal discipline, but that discipline may push adolescents toward those same problem behaviors," the study's author said in a press release.

3. They're 'helicopter parents.'

There's such a thing as being "too" involved. Reuters

While being an involved parent is a good thing, being a "helicopter parent," or a parent who is over-controlling, could result in higher levels of anxiety and depression in children.

"Students who reported having over-controlling parents reported significantly higher levels of depression and less satisfaction with life," researchers wrote in a 2013 study of nearly 300 college students in the Journal of Child and Family Studies.

It's one in a number of other studies that point to a possible connection between over-controlling parents and depression in college-aged young adults, including a 2011 study from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.

The researchers found that children with so-called "helicopter parents" were less open to new ideas, more self-conscious, and happened to use more pain pills recreationally.

4. They let their children decide their bed times.

Researchers from the UK found a link between irregular bedtimes and worsening behavior scores, which included hyperactivity, conduct problems, peer issues, and emotional difficulties.

Plus, irregular bedtimes could affect the developing brain.

"We know that early child development has profound influences on health and wellbeing across the life course. It follows that disruptions to sleep, especially if they occur at key times in development, could have important lifelong impacts on health," one of the study's authors, Yvonne Kelly, told Medical News Daily.

5. They let them watch TV when they're really young.

Though screen time has been a parental boogieman for decades, it seems there may be cause for concern.

A 2007 study published in The Journal of Pediatrics indicates that heavy television viewing for kids before three years of age affects vocabulary, participation, and made them more likely to bully other classmates when they enter kindergarten.

Heavy television usage has also been associated with attention problems as well as impaired reading and math proficiency.

Some studies have indicated that educational programs like "Sesame Street" or "Barney" are beneficial, but only for kids between two-and-a-half and five years old.
