What am almost certain about is that the results show something the family could be ashamed of and so it shall remain a family matter.
If at all there was an ioata of foul play..Nairobi haingekalika.
But my wish would be they say to truth to clear doubts and enable us take some lessons for our children.
my thoughts exactment. someone failed in their duty to parent! but why does this only affect the boy child? I have not heard any concerns with the female Odingas.
I wouldn't blame the parents or anyone. Why are we forgetting that he was 41yrs? He wasn't exactly a young man as it is being purported. He was a man who had decided, or who is mature enough to decide what he wanted in life. But as someone said, I hope the truth comes out if it is alcoholism or substance abuse so others can learn.
Another thing I've noticed is depression within these kids of the rich. I know a few who have committed or attempted suicide the most popular being the son of the former minister of Finance. Are they pampered too much to the point where they become or feel useless? Pampering could be there, but their biggest problem is that their parents are never really available for their children, for mentoring and guidance...ooh, and canning and pinching. These big people are always very busy. These kids are largely brought up by their househelps and drivers. I know one who used to go for months before seeing their dad, yet he could see him on TV. The driver used to drop him at school every day, and when there was an issue to be sorted by a parent at school, it was always the driver's role. The driver even used to attend the parents' meeting.
I always ask why a parent should be mangamangaring around many clubs at 4am. But am told those are the best hours for doing business for the big people. Granted, the businesses should not then be done in such hours all the time. Maybe time for family should be there for as much as possible.
I mentioned this on another thread some time back. I had taken some young relatives swimming at the Village Market and couldn't help but feel sorry for quite a number of kids. Dropped by drivers in big cars and spend the afternoon with the house girl in complete uniform. Parents no where to be seen!!! And it is not one set of kids. Quite a number! House helps in uniform all over. The parents simply replace themselves with money.
Kuharibiwa is also part of the problem. Some kids also have such a huge sense of self entitlement. I have heard of University students (from the high and mighty) committing suicide because of being rejected by a girl (Not even being left by an existing one). That is the first time the fellow has ever wanted something and could not get it. He cannot even understand how that is even possible. How can someone say no to them. And may be that someone is just a "kawaida person"! Another one went into depression at UON because his well known and wealthy father bought him a probox instead of "a better car" and his friends were making fun of him!!!
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.
