Teenager Recovering After Stabbing at Perry Bay

As a mother, this one really hurt my heart. These are children. Somebody’s son is lying in a hospital bed fighting through pain, and somewhere else another mother is sitting down trying to understand how her child ended up in something so violent. No mother raises her son expecting a phone call like that. Perry Bay is supposed to be a place where young people lime, laugh and enjoy themselves not where blood gets spilled. Four stab wounds? That’s serious. That’s not a little scuffle gone wrong. That is anger that went too far. I’m praying for the young man who is recovering. I pray God covers him and gives him strength to heal — physically and mentally. And I’m praying for the other family too, because this situation will follow them for a long time. When our children make one bad decision in a hot moment, it can change everybody life forever. We really have to start checking in on our sons. Talk to them. Listen to them. Teach them how to walk away. Pride and ego not worth prison or cemetery. As mothers in Antigua, we can’t just shake we head and move on. This could be any one of our children. It’s time we guide them stronger, love them harder, and remind them that one minute of anger can bring a lifetime of regret.

And sometimes when you hear what them man was beefing over is nothing

Everytime I hear about teenager being stabbed in remember that young cricketer

Lives dont matter anymore..especially black lives

The world needs more love

do we have an update on the kid?

smh MORE VIOLENCE

It really make you think we need to step up, more awareness, more support for youth, and ways to prevent this kind of violence before it happen. Nobody should have to go through something like that at their age.

Hope he pulls through.

violence everywhere. help our young people.
