She lacked self-confidence. ‘‘I had a negative mind set in which I had beliefs that I would never be successful at anything, with a very low self-esteem. ‘‘I made excuses because I had no motivation and little confidence and I let life pass me by even if it was a wonderful opportunity because I was so afraid of the unknown.’’

Prasad, 18, and the youngest in a family of five, is now working as a caregiver while studying a foundation course at NZMA for occupational therapy and has realised she ‘‘could do anything’’. She is the first in her family to go to university. The South Auckland teen has found her potential with the help of our Foundation that aims to transform young Kiwi lives.

One woman described the situation as chaotic, saying "there didn't appear to be a very good system". An Auckland Airport spokesman said staff sickness and delayed flights arriving in short succession were to blame for the delays, and that affected passengers would be given a refund. Have you been stranded at the airport because of the valet service? Let us know in the comments.
