    "content": "We had a case whereby a young boy who was in high school committed suicide because the father was unable to pay school fees. Look at those two things. If we had a counselling opportunity, this boy would be counselled and another opportunity would have presented itself and he would have gone back to school. It is very important that we support counselling services and this Motion. People are in jail today. Some are in prison because they were not counselled in their situations of life. Some of the challenges that they underwent pushed them to commit the crimes. If they would have been taken to a counselling centre or come into contact with a counsellor, they would have resolved them. This should also be brought to our learning institutions as earlier echoed by one of the Members in the House. It should begin right from the bottom. We should not think about it at the university level. We should begin with Early Childhood Development (ECD), primary school and high school. That is where it begins."
