TACLOBAN CITY – City Mayor Alfred Romualdez strongly called on parents in the city to exercise responsible parenthood in order to help fight against criminality involving the youth.
In an exclusive interview with the Leyte Samar Daily Express, Mayor Romualdez said that the parents are the prime partners of the government in addressing the problem involving juvenile delinquency.
Romualdez said that the discipline of a child begins at home, so if children have proper upbringing, they will eventually become upright and disciplined citizens.
“Parents must be responsible in imposing control and restraint on children. The ultimate goal of marriage is to raise a good family and it is dependent on how parents handle their responsibilities in caring and supporting their children to face a better future,” Romualdez said.
Romualdez believes that through responsible parenthood criminality will be eliminated or diminished in the city.
“Responsible Parenthood will help in preventing our children from street crimes, indulging in illegal drugs and other bad influences,” he further said.
This message was made during an ambushed interview when he was asked about the implementation of curfew by the Tacloban City Police Office (TCPO) in cooperation with the City Social Welfare and Development Office (CDSDW) and TOMECO.
Meanwhile, Romualdez expressed his support to the implementation of curfew in the city as he gave power by virtue of the ordinance approved by him.
Romualdez ended the interview by appealing to the public, especially to the parents, to be responsible to their children and the couple should put always into action the sense of responsible parenthood. (NOEL SEVILLANO TALACAY)
