Kids of these days are getting increasingly smarter, it's a form of evolution.

i think it's down to better nutrition, better education and over exposure to technology.

My little nephews who are 6, 9 & 10 are too exposed, I have to be mindful of the type of things I say in their presence, they already know the meaning of sex & dating. As a matter of fact the two boy have girlfriends already, while they girl who's just 6 told me she broke up with her boyfriend.

I started growing teeth when I was 3 months old. My cousins are 12 and 11 respectively but if you see them, taller than me, so mature. If you see the 12 year old's hips so large. Then their 5 yr old Ola, talkative. She will ask you, "auntie what's the meaning of this" and when you tell her she will say I knew it already

utumunta: My neighbour's kid, though he has grown tall, seem to be in his own world where nothing happens. Infact ignorance dey worry the boy! He hates school like his grand father and prefers to sit out by their gate with their security man.

He knows how to fix cars though...
Re-incarnation shocked
They should enroll him in a technical school ASAP.

@Post, this is so so true, if you see some female 13yr olds. Believe me, you'll think that they are in their early twenties. shocked

They learn faster due to exposure.... before they learn only when the parents/siblings made time to teach/expose them.Now they are exposed 24/7 via Tv/tablet. They grow faster thanks to modified foods laced with sugars, growth hormones/steroids and who knows what else.One thing to note...despite all this...is that kids are not as solid as they used to be.

Surely yes, they are.

It all starts from the moment of birth now. In the past, babies don't open their eyes until some days or even a week after birth, but now, their eyes are wide open as they are coming out of the womb.

My son is just 1yr four months, the guy will just walk to the tv put it off and walk away as if to say

"nobody should watch tv now".

He knows when I'm on phone with wifey and will be making trouble to "speak" with me as if he makes any sense.

there are times I get calls from wifeys' phone only for me to pick and hear the guy making all sorts of noise.

Children are wonders these days.

At six months, my son could take my phone charger to the socket and attempt to plug it. Now he is one year old. He knows how to put on the television. When I bring a plate of fufu, soup and water to wash my hands, I observe with keen interest when he dips his hand into the bowl to wash his hands first. After that, he proceeds to consume the helpless fufu.hmmmmmmmm. The world has changed. Pls when u are with your wife in a room, avoid any form of sex in the presence of your ward or child no matter the age. Kids learn so fast.

Edusouls: They re End time kids, these end time kids have this tendency to overgrow their age, due to an evil world, these kids have to adapt fast to the everyday wiseness of the vry fast evolving world, and these endtime kids re susceptible to learn bad behaviours early, nowadays b4 they re 12years old, they have started keeping boyfriend and girlfriends,engaging in sex, knowing how to lie and deceive their parents easily, even some of them now knows when their parents engage in love making, they lack a lot of respect for their elders, i was badly insalted one day by one 15year old boy.nowadays you notice that these growing kids hardly greet, cos at that early age they have already developed pride and self esteem..this is not the cause of any enhanced food, it is just the product of the ailing world, kids that are wiser than their elders, they re the endtime kids..

Insalted? As per hey gave you salt water to drink for ebola?

NaLaugh: You gotta keep up.

Then again, Naija kids are a little slower to develop coherent speech, and they speak soooooooo slow. Like person wey drink palmi cheesy

The other time wey i enter Naija, one of my 5 year old cousin was like:

"myyyyyy muuuummmyyy sayyyyyy thaaaaatt yoouuuu shool com an' eaaaaaaat"
I strongly disagree. Your cousin is not the whole of Naija kids.

Yomieluv: Maybe its due to the genetically modified chemicals all in the name baby food,and early exposure to gadgets also a major effect.

1. Advanced glycation end products (AGES) in infant formula during manufacturing due to heating eg pasteurization

2. Bisphenol A (or BPA) in formula that leaches out of the bottle or container into the liquid or food that's in contact with the plastic containers and inner lining of canns of infant formula

These two chemicals (No.2 especially) has been confirmed to accelerate aging and unset of puberty in children

You owe it to these kids to research before choosing formulas and milk products
