    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me a chance to contribute to this important Motion. I thank Hon. John Makali for bringing it to the House. Indeed, the question that comes into my mind this morning is why drug abuse is eating up our children. Why are they in it? The answer I am getting within myself is that parenting has become a problem in this country. Parents have become too busy to spend quality time with their children. We have no time to talk to them anymore. We may discuss all these issues, but first things first, parenting has become a problem in this country. It is high time for us, as parents, to go back to where we were before. Many years back, parents were counselling their children. It is high time we went back there. I do not see why my children should start abusing drugs if I am there for them. We have become very busy. Even as we increase the rehabilitation centres in this nation, my prayer this morning is that parents must start talking to their children.
