Student Ends Life After Argument With Parents
A heavy sadness settled over Kaboson Girls Secondary School in Chepalungu sub-county, Bomet county, after a Form 4 student tragically took her own life on the school grounds.
The lifeless body of the 17-year-old girl was discovered in the school’s store around 7 am on Friday, October 10, 2025. The principal wasted no time in notifying the police about this heartbreaking incident.
A police report indicates that the girl had previously informed her friend that she was having differences with her parents over her performance in school.
” On the previous day, she informed her friend that she had a difference with her because of her performance at school, and she left a suicide note to her classmate in Form 4 Central,” reads part of the report.
It’s reported that the young woman left a suicide note for her classmate before taking her own life.
The police have since carefully transported her lifeless body to the morgue at Longisa County Referral Hospital for postmortem examination.
A number of parents have voiced their concerns about how other parents are raising their children. Erick Langat, one of the parents, emphasized that kids shouldn’t feel pressured to achieve high grades.
” All children are not the same; parents should be very cautious about how they handle their children,” Langat said.
Langat said that the information indicating she had differences with her parents over her academic performance speaks volumes about how many children in today’s society are treated, often being judged or pressured based solely on their grades rather than being understood, supported, and encouraged to express their challenges, emotions, and unique abilities in a more compassionate way.
