TV personality Morayo Brown has cautioned parents against enrolling emotionally vulnerable teenagers in foreign high schools, following the tragic death of a 15-year-old Ghanaian boy allegedly victimized by bullying in the United States. Brown's warning came in response to the incident, as she reflected on her own experiences as a 15-year-old American student who endured bullying due to her African heritage.
Students at her school targeted her by placing foul items in her locker and physically assaulting her during sports, a situation she avoided reporting out of fear of not fitting in. As her prom approached, the harassment intensified.
Brown emphasized the importance of ensuring children are emotionally mature and well-guided before sending them to high school abroad. "University abroad is fine, but high school can be treacherous," she stated. She urged parents to maintain open lines of communication with their children, inquire about their daily experiences, and offer the necessary support during the adjustment process to life in a foreign country.
