Well enough to know they will never tell you everything, just have to stay in touch with their world. As for the school, what on earth were they thinking. The thought of turning up at school and your child not there? My children would be hauled right out of there.

Now, for those who care to know, i have gotten the full gist today..............


What really happened is that, truly, the girl who is 4years old and in K.G 2(also known as prenursery class) actually cried after her friend's mum, when she came to pick her child, and since the little girl refused to be pet, the woman suggested that the girl be released to her, that she would go with the two of them to wait for her daughter's friend in the administrative officer's office, so, one of the teachers in the class took them there and they were in the A.O's office waiting for the other mum, so, by the time the other mum was around, she just went into her girl's class directly, and she didnt see her daughter among her classmates, all effort to explain what happened to her fell into her deaf ears, she was just screaming, and that was the time i got there to pick my own children, so, all i was just hearing is "why will you allow my kid to leave the class".
Not until when the girl, her friend and the friend's mum came with the school's A.O that the case was settled, but i had left before then, so that was why i thought they allowed the girl to follow her friend and her friend's mum.
I think the mistake the teacher made was to have waited for the girl's mum at the gate and took her to the A.O office straightaway, instead of allowing the poor woman to come to her daughter's class, only for her not to meet her in the class with her classmates.
And, i cant blame the woman. If its me too, i will react, abi, what do you think.


Now, i only used the scenario as an example, what about out older kids, pre-teens, teens and older kids, how well do you know them?i will appreciate if this is discussed, instead of the school/the teacher that made mistake.
Thanks and may God help us all.

, I get it now however this is not a good example.
May God help the teacher that let kids follow anyone, no excuses, I hand my child over to you, the only person my child is allowed to follow is me or his Father or any relative we informed the school will pick him up.
This one is a serious gaffe from the school and that careless teacher should be sanctioned. No questions.
Even if the chilld cries blood he stays in that class and waits for who ever it is that will pick him/ her up, that's in my case oh.
Any school that does that kind of error is playing with fire.

knowing our children is not what we start overnight. we form that bonding with them right from the womb. even from there, they hear us. if not, why do pregnant women feel the movement of babies in their womb? then, as infants we give them attention. when they are adolescents, encourage them to talk by asking questions. May God help us, as children are gifts from him. We are only caretakers

Aww! I think you'd have a different relationship with your kids, because you'd know what not to do (a case of making them feel less judged).

We live, and we learn, abi? :-)

Honestly,as a man who is very busy I can say categorically that I know my kids well enough for now and I pray they never fail me. My first daughter who is 15yrs(through with O'Level) is my best friend in the family. The twin girls who are 12yrs (in JSS3) are not too friendly as their sister but I still know pretty much about them. Sometime in January,the girls told me they wanted to join facebook but I declined. Politely they asked why and I told them the usual vices involved at such tender ages. As for my only son who is 2.5yrs,he attends his mum's school (our school grin ) and I am still learning much about him though he's so inquisitive. However,knowing your kids well depends on some factors :
-How busy parents are
-Nature of kid(s)
-Societal influence (environment)
-Resources availability
-Father-Mother relationship and
-Readiness of parents to knowing their kids etc.
As madam always says,may God help us all.(Amen)

This is really worrisome. These kids are so trusting, they forget all we tell them before leaving the house.

Unfortunately for me, I don't reside in thesame town with my son, but we talk almost every day. At a time, we used to talk every day. I ask him about his friends, his teachers, the ones he admires and the ones he can't stand, where his friends live, their church (yes!), what he ate for brekfast and lunch, everything.

Now because I work far away from home and I spend all day on the road, we talk like thrice a week, but we're still close. I tell him about my friends too, and I can say we're friends. One day soon, we'll start to live together, but a bond has been formed. To an extent, I know my son.

Insecurity has made people paranoid
Screaming and shouting from heaven to hell does not solve the problem

So the missing child was still in the school premises

The situation was not even as chronic as it sounded at first
However the teached should not have released the kid on no account

i wonder who this rant is for.

are you addressing your parents?

i doubt anyone on nairaland really cares per se, as per if they're checking your phone, following you on twitter, are or arent on your fb friends list or not, that's your personal business.

if, however, you're looking to make a mess of your life, then nl is the right place to air your dirty laundry and mock your relations.
