Rowley blames leaders, parents for failing youths

POLITICAL leader of the People's National Movement (PNM), Dr Keith Rowley, says parents and leaders have failed to set the right examples for young people.


"Admittedly, as parents and leaders, too many of us have failed to set the right examples for our young people. Standards have fallen in all sectors: in the way we dress, the way we speak, the normal courtesies which we expect of each other, the way we write, the way we interact with one another, and worst of all we no longer see ourselves as our brothers' keeper. No wonder so many of our young people head in the wrong direction. They follow the example which we have set and accept these behavioral patterns as the new norm,"
