Parents, Stop Following Your Children to their School Just to Punish them before the Class teacher


In the realm of parenting, discipline stands as a cornerstone for nurturing responsible and well-adjusted individuals. However, the methods employed in enforcing discipline can often blur the line between effective guidance and detrimental actions. One concerning trend that has emerged is parents resorting to public displays of discipline, including showing up at their child's school to administer punishment in front of teachers and peers. While the intention might be to showcase authority and uphold discipline, the ramifications can be far-reaching and counterproductive.

The Classroom as a Stage It's not uncommon to hear anecdotes or witness scenes where parents, fueled by frustration or a desire to assert dominance, march into their child's school, ready to dole out punishment in the classroom. Whether it's for academic underperformance, behavioral issues, or simply to showcase their disciplinary prowess, these confrontations often play out in a distressing manner.

My mother, my world !

 

At the terminus of the stars, where horoscope is settled 

The dullards with the apron of nemesis by their sides. 

The pundits with challenges stationed on their ways.

Akimbo, the paupers stand with poverty attached to their hemstitch.

Aside seated the well-offs

Awaiting the next available vehicles faring to the mysterious world. 

‘We’ve waited for so long

Longed daily to see the light of a new dawn on earth. 

Be it luck or doom, we’re ready for

The bitter truths about life

Life ain't confusion neither is it an abode of doom as devil/your status quo positions it to you in its pseudo-mirror... 

The fact that you're sad, rejected, abused, disdained... today doesn't implies misfortune... Remember, some folks know you better than you do...you doubt that?...

The moment the trials and ordeals become tough, know that comfort is near.

Elephant and the Proud Rat

Many years ago, there lived in the community of animals, Elephant and Rat. The Elephant was the biggest and the most respected animal. He lived in big mansion and in luxury.

No animal has ever visited the town except Elephant. This is because of a long suspended bridge between the animals' community and the rich town. The tiny legs of the animals didn't enable them cross to the other side of the bridge that's built with spaces in between the mesh of it's tied woods. One day, Rat summoned courage; he went to meet the Elephant.

Ladies: how to keep your man and win his heart



I have seen relationship and courtship of more than five years dissolved. And most times, ladies feel the pain more because they have soft mind and when they give their trust to any man, they give it in entirety. That's why every lady should be circumspect; good, faithful and true-loving men are as scarce as cash these days. Some of the guys on campuses may claim to be caring. Hummm... infatuation coats their genuine love; they are mostly after tasting the meal and testing the soft engine.

However, if you've gotten a staunch guy or still on waiting for the man, I have some tips that can sincerely help you keep your relationship and live happily.

Dangers of Children Staying Late at School

Last week, around some minutes past six in the twilight, I saw some school buses conveying learners to their destinations. I actually stood agape; I saw the poor learners already asleep inside the buses.

Then, I started asking myself some questions: do these kids really have parents who miss them and want them around? Do the parents really think they're helping them by folding arms and seeing them coming home late in the night already exhausted? Is this action/attitude really helpful to nurturing our future leaders intellectually and psychologically?

Getting home late or being conveyed home late by the school bus can be detrimental to students' performance because it disrupts their sleep schedule. A lack of sleep can lead to physical and mental fatigue, which in turn can negatively impact focus, attention, and memory.
