Leon Barnes, Khari Green, Deajuan Gordon, Dejuan Powell and Garry Bartley are the extraordinary young men who assisted a grade eight student after he was attacked by a grade eleven boy from his school. It was just one of three similar incidents in Jamaica recently.

We join Jamaica's Prime Minister, to celebrate their heroic actions. These five students represent the future that Jamaica MUST fight to save. Let us heal our culture to break the cycle of violence beholding so many Jamaican young people.

The message is clear:
In the current social climate, we as parents must exercise stricter controls over where our children go and who they are around, as no one can be trusted blindly. Talia's family joins those of Danielle Rowe and Nikkita Noel who also suffered the loss of their eight-year-old daughters to heartless criminals this year.

A respondent blamed mental health issues affecting Jamaica's children on this: "Children of Jamaica are struggling with mental health [issues] because of numerous reasons, but the main reason is that they do not have a safe space to talk about their problems because their parents disregard their feelings because they are young, so they keep it bottled up".

https://voice.parentsall.org/2023/05/22/bad-parenting-is-damaging-to-childrens-mental-health-according-to-poll/

Children don't like parents who leave them to navigate the pressures of teenage years alone and 87% said that Jamaican parenting styles create mental health challenges in children and youth.

Do you support the ban?
