A biology teacher wished to demonstrate to his students the harmful effects of alcohol on living organisms. For his experiment, he showed them a beaker with pond water in which there was a thriving civilization of worms. When he added some alcohol into the beaker the worms doubled-up and died.

"Now," he said,” what do you learn from this?"

An eager student gave his answer.

"Well the answer is obvious," he said " if you drink alcohol, you'll never have worms."

It has been said that early socialization is good for the growing child. Indeed, the choices we make from childhood, the struggles we face growing up, prepare us for life and shape who we eventually become. There is no doubt that the home remains the main conduit for grooming good and responsible citizens. We all need to look inwards, and find those areas of our individual and communal life that require mending, and mend them. As Frederick Douglas puts it…“It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men”.
