Discipline vital for success

Letters

EVERY year, thousands of students drop out of the formal education system in Papua New Guinea.
Some of them tend to engage in criminal activities for survival.
This behaviour has caused an increase in negative social issues in the country.
This often stresses the Government to address law and order issues.
One potential contributor of the problem is the lack of proper discipline and control of children by their parents at a younger age.
Strict discipline from parents provides strong guidelines to help the children become successful in their education and contribute meaningfully to the development of the nation.
Thus, parents should focus more on their children’s education to move their children and the country forward.
