A TEEN'S STORY

-


When I was 12, I ran away from home. I had no idea where I was going. I just wanted to disappear and start another life somewhere new. I still laugh when I remember that😂

There’s this pressure that comes with being an adolescent. And I think the stage of adolescence is the toughest and most delicate stage in anyone’s life. This is when most mistakes are made. Being an adolescent is even tougher than being an adult because as an adult you see more clearly to make some decisions whether they are wrong or right. But as an adolescent, everything is blurry, and life becomes so confusing. One hardly makes the right decisions at that stage. Dear parents, please be gentle with your teens. We’ve all been there, and we all can attest that it’s not a smooth ride.

A toast to us all who made it through that stage, we are awesome✌💖

how tough was your adolescent age and how did you deal with it? share your lessons in the comment section.

Sperm cells can live inside a female’s body for up to five days, and once ovulation occurs, the egg remains viable for 12–48 hours before it begins to disintegrate . Superfecundation most commonly happens within hours or days of the first instance of fertilization with ova rele

MEDICAL MYTHS DEBUNKED

INTRODUCTION I was speaking to a woman who complained that her daughter was uncontrollably passing stool containing blood and mucus. She was quite worried, and we were exploring her options of what could be wrong with her little baby. All of a sudden, she said, “Or did my baby consume sperm? But I haven’t done anything with my husband for a while now. Besides, I am in my period and, my baby has not suckled my breast for like two days now”. Hmmm, I was dumbfounded. I was literally confused and amused (even though it was not funny). There was a feeling of pity and utter confusion within me. Yes, I felt pity for the woman who was so confused and vulnerable to believe anything. Maybe it was not her fault because of her state of mind at that moment. Whatever the case was, I was just lost in her words. Anyway, let’s talk about the main point of this particular post. Is it just possible for us to ‘not spread’ information we are not certain of, especially when it comes to medical infor
