BLANTYRE (Maravi Post)—St Andrews High School student Francis Namboya, 12, has committed suicide over issues surrounding his parents sour relationship.According to our source, the father who stays in Kenya divorced his wife who was staying with the late Namboya in Malawi’s Commercial City of Blantyre.
The source said that the divorce was traumatizing the son who kept on lamenting about the ill-treatment he suffered in the hands of his father when they visited him in Nairobi.
To make matters worse, the mother told him that his father wanted him to go and stay with him in Nairobi. Displeased of such news from his mother, the 12 year old Namboya, sadly, went to his room and hanged himself. His mom found him dead.
Sad as the development is must serve as a lesson to all parents.

I now know why parents decisions must be very cautious. I have seen families that divorce and continue to stay under one roof in separate rooms for the sake of kids. Today i have the answer, they sacrifice their personal ego for the welfare of their kids. In the above story they have both lost terribly and will live to regret their action
you surrounded an entire story off hearsay ?
