MAKYN THE NEWS - Photographer's Final comments


The youngsters enjoy themselves in the road. - RICARDO MAKYN

ON FRIDAY AFTER driving all day I stopped to get a drink and saw these youngsters in the Whitehall community in rural St. Mary having fun playing football.

You know, as simple as this maybe many kids in the inner city cannot enjoy this simple luxury because of the growing violence in these areas. This had me thinking while looking on the facial expressions of these rural children. They were really enjoying themselves without worrying about if a gunshot will be fired or someone will be stabbed because of some futile reason.

It just goes to show that we are the ones creating the monsters when we don't give these kids the chance to enjoy their childhoods and make them grow up too quickly.
