CHILDREN are the future and imparting knowledge to them through their parents is imperative, Commander of “G” Division (Essequibo Coast, Essequibo Islands), Senior Superintendent Khali Pareshram said.

He shared this sentiment during a recent outreach hosted by the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Social Protection and teachers of the Essequibo Coast at the Anna Regina Multilateral Secondary School.
Some 60 parents attended the forum.

The parents were edified about the Sexual Offences and Juvenile Offences Acts; the importance of educating their children about moral values, ethics and peer pressure, and the benefits of their children being involved in police youth groups.

The session concluded with a discussion during which the parents highlighted several key points that were addressed. They also commended the commander for the excellent initiative.
