Delivering a speech, the Chief Executive Officer of Cherryfield Montessori school, Madam Magdalene Dzifa Adzanu advised the gathering to seize every opportunity and appreciate their parents.

Even though one's parent may not have taken care of him or her, she explained that it should not prevent any one from showing love.

She entreated the gathering not to hold malice against their parents but to demonstrate love even if they neglected their responsibility towards them.

Madam Adzanu warned that hatred has the potential to retard development in life, therefore, the need for the gathering to do away with it.

"Don't let these things be stumbling blocks in our lives. Do you know that when we keep this thing, hatred, in our lives, we can not progress in life?", she quizzed.

She added that, "your parents not taking care of you, is not the end of life and also not in your place to punish them".

"Do your part and play your role and let God judge them. What is the guarantee that if they took care of you, you would have been better? Rather appreciate them for the world is too full of hatred", she concluded.
