It has been pointed out in many circles that in the Caribbean as a whole, neglect is one of the biggest issues confronting children. Neglect is without a doubt a form of child abuse and can be shown in many ways. Children who are not fed properly, left alone at the house while the parents go out without proper supervision, walk to and from school while dodging dangerous traffic are a few examples of neglect.

This week I have been blessed by the fact that for the first time in nearly three years, some of my family has been able to come to Anguilla for a visit. On Monday, March 24, my brother John, his wife Tony and their daughter (my niece) Kayli touched down in Sint Maarten and took the ferry trip to Blowing Point to spend a week in what they already claim as the most beautiful island they have ever seen.

Last week Pastor Phillip Gumbs of the Church of God Holiness invited me to join with him on his regularly scheduled Talk Show on Radio Anguilla called Social Solutions. The programme began promptly at 8:30 am on Saturday, March 15 and as always was sponsored by Cable and Wireless Anguilla.

An apology to my readers is in order for not being able to publish last week’s edition of Celebration of Youth. In all honesty, it has been quite difficult finding stories to write about. Originally, the purpose of this column was to highlight children, children’s organizations or any other faction that is doing great things for children.
