"Abanye abazali basegoli kumbe base Botswana babuya ngamakhefa so isikhathi esinengi umntwana uhlala logogo. So umntwana nxa ehla logogo isikhathi esinengi yibo laba abaqalisa ukwenza ukungezwa ngoba ugogo lokhulu bengalala bona yikho abaphumayo kumbe nxa ugogo emtshele laye ulaye. Inengi labo abanye nxa ukhuluma labo abafuni kuveza angazi kumbe yikuthi bayabe betshelwe ngabadala ukuthi bengakhulumi ngoba indaba le siyazi ukuthi iyabophisa but isikhathi esinengi abanye uyathola ukuthi vele bona bebodwa bebancane yibo abamithisana bebodwa. Ezikhathini futhi kukhona labadala abayenza njalo. Udubo yikuthi thina kukhanya khathesi ku Health asivunyelwa ukuthi sirepote ngoba kuyathwa sungeneleendabeni endabeni yikuchasisela loku khansela abadala kuyibo abafanele behambe bona labo bayathula kabahambisi."

“Into esiyinanzelelayo ngabanye abantwana, bahleli beyibo bodwa emakhaya bengala abazali abalabo khonalokho kuyabangela izinto ezinjalo sikhanya sihlangana lobunzima obukhona ,noba siyinkokheli zomdabu kodwa ke siyaludinga uxhaso ukuthi ma sihlangana lento ezinje sithola labangasincedisa siyefika kulezo ndawo ezinjalo sincedakale.
Ngenyanga kaNcwabakazi ngo 2020, uhulumende weZimbabwe wafaka umthetho omutsha wokuthi abantwana bezikolo abazithwala befunda kabavunyelwe ukuthi babuyele ezikolweni bayeqedisa izifundo zabo bengabeletha. Inengi labantu lithi umthetho lo yiwo osumemethekisa ukuzithwala kwamantombazane amancane. Isikhulumeli sogatsha lwezemfundo yePrimary leSecondary School uMnu Taungana Ndoro uthi uhulumende wakhe sesenza ezinye inhlelo zokufundisa abasakhulayo ngobubi bezocansi bebancane.
”Siqhubekela phambili njengo hulumende sincedisa njalo siseluleka amantombazane labafanyana ukuthi bangajahi ukuya emacansini bengakaqedi isikolo, sixoxisana labo ukuthi ukwenza njalo kungamotsha ikusasa yabo. Lokho kuyasincedisa ukwehlisa udubo lolu kodwa kwezinye izigaba kuyasikhathaza ngoba udubo lolu alwehli.
Izakhamizi zithi abantwana abasakhuzeki sebezenzela umathanda. Ngenyanga ka Zibandlela loNhlolanja ngomnyaka ophelileyo uhulumende ubika ukuthi amantobazane afundayo azinkulungwane ezinhlanu 5000 bazithwala besesikolweni njalo kulenani labanengi abendiswa bebancane. Kuloba amantombazana amithayo amanengi akhona engaphansi kweminyaka evunyelwa ngumthetho wokuthi angathandana lowesilisa, amapholisa akulindawo alile ukukhuluma le Studio 7 kodwa akhuthaze abazali abalabantwana abamithisiweyo ukuthi kube yibo abatshela amapholisa.
