Can your products wash away sin?
Just joking...

One thing I have learnt in my journey in this life, best things happen to us when we least expect it.

Never let the failed relationship or age make you compromise reasonable standard.

It is well...

NB: The gods can help you with the search... Ask Tearoses for the requirements. Not many and not difficult.

My mind is disturbed .

Being mom of a girl child... How much care/love is enough. If you do too much , you're being labelled an helicopter parent. If you cut them slack, you're an aśshole parent coz 12am IMO is not bad a curfew for a 17yr old.

What really prompt these new generation girls run after these older men for comfort and security besides money?

What are they looking for?

Tearoses , sis we thank God and you? Happy Holidays!

tearoses:


Even if you marry today and God blesses you both with long life, you have over 50 years of marital bliss to enjoy
That is 50 years of happy days together (and a few dark days in-between) . . . . . .. Lemme be honest o!

So in short my dear, dont fret. Better to spend time to pick Mr Bone than rush and pick Mr Muscle

better to have 3 failed relationships that you can dust yourself up from than a failed marriage.

It is well sis. ((hugs))

Madam Ewuro how you be? Family nko?

bravitudenatura:

Thanks ma
Really taking my time, for a year now no relationship

tearoses:


Sis Miiiii

I personally think that 12am is too late especially for a girl
On a one off maybe
It also depends on how the child has been brought up and the child him/herself
Some kids are follow follow kids so this kind of kid needs to be checked more often as they have a tendency to derail
Kids also tend to copy what their parents do
If I am not out till midnight, then what are you doing out till midnight?
Lets not forget that its more dangerous at night
When my kid goes out, I don't sleep until he comes back

tearoses:


So long as you are not deliberately hibernating and turning offers for friendship down.
The best way to get to know and meet people is by being your natural self, friendly and approachable.
Friendships turn into deeper relationships also giving you time to study the person.

bravitudenatura:

Well I can't really say I am not turning offers for friendship down, yes I am. My last really abused me emotionally I wasn't good for anything. I was called names, I dare not offer him any advice, he called me enemy of progress cos I told him not to buy another car but rent a flat cos his brothers house is choked up. Ever since he left me honestly I feel all men are assholes. I don't go out nor make new friends. Now everyone says I am too choosy as to choice of man cos I am not perfect so I shouldn't look for a perfect man.
Turning down a man with a child is that choosy?
Turning down a man who attends white garment church and can't take any decision without consulting their shepherds,tieing beads on my waist is that choosy?
Turning down a man who can't get over debby his ex, is that choosy?
Turning down a brother who asks me to call hi$ daddy and he calls me mummy then I greet him goodmorning sir even while dating is that choosy?
I grew up in a very liberal household we were very free with our parents and my mom didn't pamper any child for one. On saturdays she will apportion duties for everyone including my eldest brother. My dad too helps out in the house so I am not used to that regimented lifestyle.
I told my mum not to kill herself with worries over me. I am the last born, she don carry six grandchildren make she calm down

Ewuro4:


Hmm I have an older friend whose daughter's curfew is 12am since jnr high (grd10/ss1) , I recalled, her mom was very well acquainted with her peers' parents as well and she has a phone on her 24/7 whenever she needed to spend the night at theirs. They(friends) also on many occasions had sleepover at hers too. she's currently studying Engineering in another province. Level headed kid and very prudent , she barely touched her student loan because she's been on numerous scholarships since her first year. Very impressive. And her parents are what we call antisocial so I don't know where she got her social butterfly trait from.

That was why I said so sis.

But you're right some kids are follow follow and needed to be checked like a hawk.

Indeed at Ojo iku lojo isimi

Read sketchy bits of the whole case and again what kept on making me scared was how much work needs to be done on these kids.

I was so disturbed. To think a boy was raised not to think anything was wrong with using another person as an object repeatedly without any remorse and a girl had such low esteem to keep going back.SMH

Now I really really feel my parents

I used to think their own was too much but now I looove and appreciate them.

freecocoa:
I'm good o, only owu, the economy is fecked so the weekend is very dry on my end, I hope yours is better.

Good morning house. wishing everyone a blessed week. where on earth is Idowuogbo

Kimoni:


Something is funny here Dami. In one vein, we are berating our parents for their high-handedness in bringing up kids calling them old-skool but when we see the repercussions on those who didn't have this strict upbringing, we start appreciating them for that same high-handedness that saw us become better persons. So which is it?

Cc: Stillfire [size=4pt](sure you know why I tagged you)[/size]

damiso:


Me berate ke. I cant berate them o. Now as a parent I kinda understand them.

You know how it is when you are a teenager and you think you know it all that's what I mean by I felt their own was too much. Me and my mum even joke about It now and she thinks she was not that strict( yeah right) . Me and my siblings hail her as MUMMMMMY LOL.Her car horn was alone to make you sit up.

However there is a balance which is the tricky bit for most parents. Even with my lil uns I am constantly wondering If I am being too harsh or if I am being too soft, if am hovering/ being paranoid or if I am being lax with the various judgement calls you make every day.

My parents (Dad especially) got that balance right to an extent. Obviously there were boundaries you dared not cross but somehow as we grew older there was till that feeling that you could talk to them and they got your back no matter what. I remember my dad would want to sit down and gist with you on Saturday morning if he was home. At the time that gist used to get plenty of groans and eye rolling from me and my sister but in hindsight it was just his way to stay connected to us. My mum was ( and still is even my children know grandma does not take ayokayo LOL) the stricter one but funny enough she was the ' cooler fashion one' . As liberal as my dad was he was conservative about dressing and I don't know how many times I was turned back to go and change. He has even stopped me on the road in our street once , asked me to get in the car and drove me home to go and change cos he said he saw skin when I bent down ( that man ehn). They kinda balanced each other out but were united in the basic moral standards eg curfews,being truthful,chores etc.

I still had to let my parents know where I was even when I was working and living at home.Liver no even reach me to stay out too late and even if I was I would have to tell them in advance. God knows how many times I have had to call at 11.30 pm to beg for mumsi to open the gate for my brother cos he feels he is now a big man and wants to stroll in whatever time he feels like. My brother is working o. But she will say its her house and the gate must be closed by 11pm. I tell him sha that its her house if you want to come home late go and get your own place.

Its a very serious business being a parent. Not everyone is cut out for it.

To be honest I don't think I have it in me to give anymore to another child sef.

LewsTherin:


Nice one here. It really is difficult to get the balance right. My jewel is just a year old and I am already worried about how I'll handle someone so blastedly headstrong when she gets to her teens (my little girl is as stubborn as 2 rocks and 3 mules!!)

Worse, I don't want to go the exact same route my folks used. They did it right yes but sometimes they overdo it (present tense intended). I've had to take a couple of business trips with my mum and believe me ee no easy. Early this year for example, while in the UK I wanted to go see a couple of old school mates. As at 8pm my mum was already calling to ask why I was still out so late! Dude!! I'm a grown arsed married man who runs a multi million naira business and she's asking why I'm out so late!!

Yes they disciplined us as needed but they didn't let us take decisions on our own early enough. My fear is how to balance that with my kid. How do I keep her on the straight and narrow while letting her make her own decisions and her own mistakes? How do I ensure her mistakes don't burn the world down?

Abeg my old school parents tried no be small.

dont8:
Eiyah, but never worry Buhari is on top of the situation

I had a nice Sunday, went out with my son in a long while.

Btw, what's owu? Cos I don't think I've come across a word like that before now.
