Parents urged to spend time with their children in Kisoro

 

Parents in Kisoro have been urged to actively spend time with their children and listen to their concerns before resorting to punishment.

This advice was highlighted on 8 January during the third day of a four-day training session on Christian counseling and positive parenting, held at Hope Community Action Africa in Kisoro. The training targeted church leaders from various denominations, parents, and married youth.

The event was organized by Hope Community Action Africa, a non-governmental organization dedicated to supporting vulnerable groups, particularly orphans. According to Niyonshima Erick, the organization's coordinator, the training aimed to equip leaders and parents with essential parental guidance and leadership skills.

Participants expressed their appreciation for the training, noting that they had gained valuable knowledge. Many pledged to share what they had learned with others in their communities. They also commended Hope Community Action Africa for organizing the sessions and requested additional training opportunities to benefit more people.
