To Nigerian Moms: How Not To Bring Up Slay Queens by saydfact(m): 10:47am On Aug 28, 2017
Let’s start by defining who a 'slay queen' is - according to the online dictionary; kill (a person or animal) in a violent way.... and that’s exactly what 'Slay Queens' have done to many happy relationships, homes, and persons. As parents, you don't want your daughter ending up as slay queens.

Below are tips for parents to help prevent their daughter ending up a slay queens.

Be a strong moral role model and mentor - kids basically imitate what they see adults (especially parents) do. It’s practically impossible to tell your teenage daughter not to buy/wear revealing clothes when you wear one. Be that parent that dresses well, not the one that exposes the top of her breast or believes if the nipple is covered, then you're OK.

Ever read about headlines like "Slay queen found dead" or "Girl killed by social media lover" - Yes! these stories are out there to act as a guide for others, at the right age, let your daughter know the dangers and implication of trying to live above their means and sharing the title of a Tell them the dangers involved
slay queen.

Guide them through - At their tender age, be a guide to your girl child, tell, teach and remind her of how things should be done; the way she should dress and address others, the discussions she should and shouldn't partake in and the kind of people she calls a friend. Guide her everyday activities, the little details that eventually matters.

Be Observant - You'll need to be observant, study the mode of your girl child - know when she's happy, moody or going through a tough time; even if she's covering it up with a smile. You should know when your daughter starts seeing a guy, or when she's sexually active merely from her dress sense, smile, and way of eating; in-fact from everything. You should be that observant.

Be her best-friend - If your girl can’t tell you about the guys who asked her out for the first time, and then you need to sit up. Be the person she runs to when she needs an advice or when she experiences something strange. Like who should be the first person she talks to when she experiences puberty? I hope that is you.

Be a disciplinarian - Yes, we've talked about being her best-friend, and her confidante but she also needs to know when she crosses the line, there would be consequences. Don't hesitate to punish her when she goes wrong, after its common saying "Spare the rod and spoil the child"

Teach her to set positive targets and achieve them - Engage her in doing things that would benefit her now and in the future, habits like reading her books, magazines encyclopedia sciences book rather, and news etc. rather than letting her read gossip sites, romantic Challenge Her
novels and hardcore books. Challenge her to be the best in everything she does and in her class.

Teach her religious virtues - Whatever your religion or denomination, they all preach godliness and a lifestyle to admire; teach your girl child the way of God and when she grows up, she would not depart from them.

Provide her basic needs - While it isn't always possible to give your girl child everything she needs, parents should try to buy their basic needs or give them pocket money while they're under their care. It common to hear some parents tell their daughters, don't your boyfriends give you money to buy Pad? This is a recipe for raising a slay queen, avoid it.

there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with being a "slay queen" so long as you have a JOB, are EDUCATED, are RESPONSIBLE, not BEGGING for handouts nor OPENING your legs for every Dikc/Tom and Harry etc

the majority of deluded broke ass begging desperate women who claim to be slay queen on social media, are irrelevant!
