When I was fifteen years old, we had many problems in our family. We were poor but I never lost hope. I prayed to God to give my mother work and help our family. She is a single parent, our father died two years ago. When my father died I became confused and I prayed to God to give me strength.

Then my mother continued praying to God to bless her work. After two months my mother told me that I would go to school. Now I am in phase 3 at Undugu Basic Education Program (U.B.E.P) Pumwani.

I like my Kiswahili teacher because he likes to talk about HIV/AIDS, He say to us that we must know where we go. Because if you have a girlfriend or boyfriend you must trust him and you must have only one partner. And if you want to have sex with him/her, you should protect him or her. That is why I like my Kiswahili teacher.

So parents must take care of there children because of HIV/AIDS.
