I think African parents should be more open to speaking to their children about relationships as it may be detrimental to their mental health. Heartbreak is not something that is easy to deal with in African households as it is dismissed and not seen as important. So battling depression and heartbreak may lead to worst things happening and not having support from family worsens the situation. So for me I would be more open to ensure my children do not go through relationship problems alone especially when I am able to give them proper advice and I would allow them to decide if they want to follow it or not but at least I’ve done my part as a parent. Doing this will help to end the cycle of depression Africans face due to relationship problems by not being able to speak to their parents who are more experienced about it.
