Njengomzali wabantwana ababini abancinane, ndiyazi ukuba ukuhlala ngaphandle kwenza abantwana abonwabe. Nokuba banjani na okanye bavavanywa kangakanani na ngaphakathi endlini, ndihlala ndifumanisa ukuba ukuba ndibakhuphela ngaphandle bonwaba ngakumbi. Ndiyamangaliswa ngamandla endalo kunye nomoya omtsha onokuguqula abantwana bam. Izolo abantwana bam bakhwele iibhayisekile zabo ecaleni kwendlela, bakha “iintyatyambo” ezimfusa (ukhula) kwingca yommelwane, baze badlale ithegi besebenzisa umthi wenqwelomoya waseLondon njengesiseko.
Ngoku ndifunda incwadi evunyiweyo kaRichard Louv, Umntwana Wokugqibela Ehlathini: Ukusindisa Abantwana Bethu Kwimeko Yentsilelo Yendalo. Ndikhuthazwa ukuba ndikhuphele abantwana bam ngaphandle rhoqo ukuze ndibavumele bahlole kwaye bonwabele indalo ebangqongileyo. Imithi yoluntu lwethu ibalulekile kulonwabo lwabo (kunye nolwam) lwangaphandle kwaye ndinombulelo ngehlathi ledolophu yethu.
Ukufumana ulwazi oluthe kratya malunga nendlela ixesha elichithwe ngaphandle linceda ngayo abantwana abancinci baphuhlise, jonga eli nqaku livela kwiPsychology Today. Ukufumana okungakumbi malunga noRichard Louv okanye Umntwana wokugqibela emahlathini, ndwendwela iwebhusayithi yombhali.
