Parents must improve the environment of their house so that their children wont get stressed out and start involving themselve in immoral activities such as truancy. parents must show a good example and be a role model for their children. parents also must always keep an eye on their children;s daily activities and always make sure that their children's are doing well in school. There are many cases that children start involving in negative activities because their parents like to push them in studies or anything in their life. therfore, parents must always try to advise their children in a nice way instead of scolding or pushing them all the time.moreover, parents should not let their children take time off school for minor ailments because it might become their habits in future if they are keep on taking off whenever they want.

School must expose their students about importance of good attendance and punctuality
