Comment: Just one concern....why is it everytime there's a murder or an incident in little st.kitts the law just pick's on these same set of boys? Why? when the real criminals are out there running sk red.

Comment: I admire what you're doing (Sister)with your son, and I know one day he will thank you for instilling these very important qualities a person should have and grow with. I hope that you'll continue to have the courage and wisdom to communicate with him and stare him in the right direction. May God continue to bless your family and keep up the good work, it will pay off in the long run.

Comment: I am a teenager and reading this article made me cry to see how the little boy is afraid to go to school and do outside activities...its a very sad sad sad thing that is happening in St Kitts when would it stop and when would we stop terrifying out little kids.

Comment: I am really heartened to read how you spoke to your son, though. I like how you got him to express his feelings, and also gave him an attentive and listening ear. It sounds like you are a great mother! Raising a son in today's culture is not easy. Keep him on the straight and narrow, even thought it's challenging, and even though people might have things to say. If we had more parents like you SK probably wouldn't be in such a state.

Comment: Very touching and powerful story. It really makes me sad when I think about how this violence must be affecting our young ones, at a time when they should be innocent and carefree. When I was growing up we used to have like 1 murder a year (and that used to make me sad)- now it's been 7 for the year. Imagine how the children feel! Especially those who have to witness the violence - it's tramautizing and robs a child of his sense of safety. Makes me feel like I don't to raise a child here... :(

Comment: our society is raising thugs instead of young decent men.back in the day people used to call down parents who let their kids go astray and wander the streets doing wrong. now society calls down parents who try teach they children wrong from right.right now if not letting my son act like a badman mean he is a antiman, i rather ha a antiman than a killer in my house.

Comment: I remember when I was growning up, and I am only 30, freedom was a part of life in SKB.I use to boast about St.Kitts and how it was such a peaceful place to live. But only if we could have looked into the future, and see what was ahead of us, then we would be prepared for the demonic forces that is controlling our youth today. The Government could only try their best but believe it or not we are fighting a spirtual warfare and we need a praying church, praying families. Generations of vibers.

Comment: My heart bleed to hear such a touching story as a mother of two boys I understand your pain.I do not live in st kitts but st kitts will always be my home and seeing all the pain the family are suffering it saddend me to no end.I remembered when you could go to town and leave your house open and everyone looks out for each others children I miss those day.

Comment: I think parents are solely responsible for their children. The bible says to train up a child the way he should go. Parents need to understand that childeren don't need PRESENTS they need your PRESENCE. How will the violence stop when parents are condoning their children's ganster lifestlye, making sure they take their colours to the grave....I really think pregnant women hould be made to attend parenting classes because if they themselves don't have any training they cannot train a child.

Comment: Once ago Winair fares were competetive with the other airlines, now Winair is just as and sometimes more expensive than Liat. $700+ for a 25-30 mins flight from SKN to SXM...come on! People here prefer to save that same money and catch the boat to St Maarten. Things getting hard.
