Report By: Brother Khrystus V. K. Wallace, The Next Prime Minister of St. Kitts and Nevis
The Honourable Pierre Liburd, Senator and Minister of Youth Elect under a Blazing Star Movement Administration SHORTLY, touched down - SHOOK, impacted and inspired The Trinity Community in St. Kitts earlier this evening.
Honourable Liburd Elect, was today's presenter at the ongoing Capacity Strengthening Training Project organized by The Ministry of Social Services and Community Development directed by Ms. Azilla Clarke.
The topic under review this evening was, "The Teenage and Young Adult Population." Honourable Liburd Elect was the first presenter since we started, that chose to present from his TABLET and also use the chalkboard, chalk and duster. "Young people got all sorts of style see!"
I am very very happy that Honourable Liburd Elect is also one of my BEST FRIENDS. As a Senior Youth Office in the Ministry of Youth Empowerment, I travel with him as a Youth Ambassador and Youth Voice to represent the Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis overseas. Youth Director Mr. Geoffery Hanley figures that he is probably the only person who can get me to cool down when I take the microphone at a forum outside of my homeland - St. Kitts and Nevis, especially when I start talking about Youth Issues and advocating for better for youths and better for youth small businesses. That's my passion! EN TIT?
I also CANNOT sneak girls into my hotel room while overseas because as God would have it, Honourable Liburd Elect's room is usually close to mine and he knows very well that I'm a preacher. LOL.
Gosh Man! When will they start sending me alone? (I guess that is God's divine intervention) Settle Down People - I'm just KIDDING! Can't you take a little joke? Common man!
Anyways!
With regards to the discussion on teenage and young adults, several issues came to the forefront. Interestingly enough, since the sessions are attended by different age groups, from teens right down to great grandmothers, views and thinking always tend to vary a lot.
Let me tell you about a few of the topics that came to the fore. What are your views?
Should we totally abolish corporal punishment in schools and at home and as a NATION? What are the advantages and disadvantages?
Imagine there were some long time adults arguing that the POTS AND PANS THEY GOT IN THE OLD TIME DAYS CAUSED THEM TO BECOME WHO THEY ARE TODAY!
Other questions that sparked much debate and controversy were:
Can psychological methods of disciplining children and teens work in our nation?
Should a teenage girl who gets pregnant be allowed to return to school? Or should she "GO LOOK WUK?"
Should we allow teens to be expelled? Aren't we creating more menaces to society when we do this without proper programs in place?
As I told you before, every session I seem to learn something NEW. An elder said. "Do you know that years ago in the CIVIL SERVICE, if you got a child outside of marriage, you would lose your job?"
MEK EVERYBODY STARTA GET MARRIED DUGGIE - MEK DEM! LOLOLOLOL! This will help the nation to be better (QUITE DEBATABLE)
Another elder jumped in and said, "It's because we keep watering down the laws, why our teenagers losing ALL RESPECT for people and for society. The system is setting up children to rule the adults and telling them it is OK to do wrong and get away with it because NOBODY COULD HIT THEM!"
Another elder, "If a teenage girl of mine BREED, when she done she GO LOOK WUK! Since she's a big OMAN, then she do what big women do. WUK!"
Honourable Liburd Elect took the time out to teach about RISK / THREATS TO YOUTHS AND YOUNG ADULTS in detail.
Some of the INTERNAL RISKS/THREATS include low self esteem, dyslexia, slow learning, psychological issues, hormonal changes, depression and anxiety to name a few.
Some of the EXTERNAL RISKS / THREATS include Bullying, Peer Pressure, Sexual Abuse, Poverty, Hunger, Unemployment, Negative Environs, Bad Relationships, Divorce, Constant Parental Bickering.
I think that its about time that I stop talking and publicly commend Honourable Pierre Liburd Elect for a job well done on this international media forum! Certainly, the people of Constituency #5 can FINALLY EXPECT MUCH HELP FOR THEM COMING VERY SOON from a very abled YOUTH - my very close friend, Honourable Pierre Liburd Elect
On behalf of KVK ENTERPRISES - www.kvklives.com, Dare 2 Be Different International - www.daretobedifferentskn.com and The Blazing Star Movement, we would like to commend Sir Pierre Liburd for all the hard work that he continues to do in the Ministry of Youth Empowerment as a Government Civil Servant. May God continue to give you the strength you need to do what you've always done best over the years - SERVE. We cannot hold back from giving you your FLOWERS WHILE YOU ARE ALIVE!

BRING BACK THE POTS AND PANS AND HOSES AND ELECTRIC WIRES ME SAY. LOLOLOLOLOLOL!

Honourable Liburd Elect, stated that THE LACK OF FATHERLY PRESENCE AND INVOLVEMENT in the lives of many children and teens is greatly affecting them and affecting their proper future development. Fathers are key and they are needed in the homes and lives of all children and teens and young adults.
Honourable Liburd Elect was VERY SURE to stress the importance of Father's Role in each child's life.
From the corner of the round table discussion, a gentleman shouted, "WOMAN BAD TOO! SOME OMAN BAD TOO! He was quite angry indeed. He probably had an experience quite similar to one I had sometime before. (Interesting!)
