NHIMA performance a disappointing deal

Dear Editor,

IWRITE to share my long journey of research on my findings on many households breakdown in relationships between parents and their children in regard classroom failures.

I have observed that parents many times have made it a must to their children that education is about going through all stages of classroom grades up to Grade 12 without giving options to children who are mentally challenged but with viable talents.

This has made a lot of children to recoil themselves in the corner thinking they are not loved and will actually go all the way to make the world believe their story.

This I have seen is because no one or very few parents will encourage a child who fails in school but has viable talent to tap into and turn it into a money spinner with their help.

As parents, let us start developing a mind that education is not about everything but added advantage and should therefore educate our children per se, so that they do not lose that spirit of being part of the family.

Some parents have actually paid all their children’s way up to universities to just have that tag that the child went that far, yet they are not even nearer to a Grade 12 pupil in knowledge, which is a shame.

Can we as parents help our children to make sure that we realise what they are best at, if classroom becomes difficult for them, and nurture them into it until they reach their dream land.

America is today benefitting a lot from the taxes it gets from its citizen who are literally earning income through their talents that have been harnessed from childhood, not necessarily education.

Stay blessed.

WISDOM MUYUNDA, Chingola. Dear Editor,

ALLOW me to express my disappointment over the slow performance of the National Health Insurance.

Each month a deduction is made mandatory to our earned working salaries towards our health insurance. But for them to meet our needs on time especially when emergency health needs arises is so

disappointing.

Even as I'm writing there are people who are still waiting just for a simple eye spectacles for months now.

Imagine inconveniencing a worker who depends on spectacles for months hence making the vision even worsr in the name of waiting for an approval from headquarters.

Let NHIMA respect the contract rules and regulations for the health benefits of the people they cut their money.
