The Teenager

By Ure Ude

The narration of the teenager is about young Morris who lived with loving parents and good neighbors. Both the parents and the good neighbors were concerned about proper upbringing of young people.

His parents lived by example because children learn by example. They taught him etiquette and good manners and values of a good society.

The good neighbors organized a symposium to promote virtue among young people. Consequently, Morris grew up a good son.

This book is timely in our society when family virtues have been under serious attack by high rate of divorces and long hours spent in the office or outside the home by parents. These have contributed in depriving our young people of love and care and has left some of them disillusioned, confused, and clamoring for attention.

The Teenager attempts to draw our attention to the good son, Morris, who was a product of dedicated, loving parents and caring and concerned neighbors. It is also educational, instructional, and fun to read. Young people will see themselves in the characters of this book.

Parents, guardians, teachers, foster parents, neighbors, and all that read it will see that young people need their help as they grow. Truly, it takes a village to raise a child.
