In this COVID-19 pandemic, both adults and children are affected physiologically with no outlet for the young people. It is time for the community leaders to hold a forum and invite ALL the young people and provide some mentorship to these youths. Some parents themselves need training to deal with the youths in the PANDEMIC. May God have mercy on the Virgin Islands.
