Seriously, booksmarts and intelligence does not equal maturity. Parents should stop rushing their children through childhood and just allow them to live. It used to be 18 year olds in 100level. Now its 16 year olds. Even if the child finishes school at 16, there are a lot of other ways to learn besides bundling the child to university. Language learning, musical instruments , arts and crafts etc. The child will be more mature for it. Please , life is not a race. Nobody send you. Allow your kids to be kids

it's lower than 16 bro grin

I will take poor grades over good grades any day. The A students works for the B students. C students run the businesses and D students owns the building. Experience is often better than good grades. All these certificates are only insurance policies that makes you work for others. The higher the grades the worse.

If the Uni professor knows the keys to become a billionaire,he won't bother be in that profession in the firsts place.


they don come again with all these obnoxious theories

Killed herself for just one course in your first year. What of those that up to three course in their final year?

sometimes parent put alot of pressure on their ward without considerating their ability to cope with the new way of life in the university .

Children should be evaluated before going to the university because some lectures no get joy.


Factor to consider:
1 the age factor
2. pressure
3. Peer pressure
4. Depression
5. The kind of friends
6. Communication
7. A society that value grades rather than knowledge and skills
8. Village people



About age, I was 14 when I graduated from secondary school, however, my dad didn't let me get into the university until I was 18, it broke my heart.

Looking back now, I think I understand why he did it.

Any school that glorifies Chemistry 101 as a dreaded course should be ashamed. There is need for urgent re-orientation or outright sack of some morons camouflaging as 'lecturers' in Nigeria. If you are not competent enough to impart knowledge of basic Chemistry on your students then you and your employers are the failures.


I tire sef,why would a course be branded most dreaded course , rubbish ,all this riff raff lecturers and their stupid behaviour , that's how one yeye lecturer boasted during my days in the University , he claimed that 90% of students in the Dept must come back for extension , that's how it has always been , we organised a tutorial for his course (inferential statistics ) we taught ourselves , and almost every one passed .I even got an A.
we realised the course wasnt even the problem but the lecturer 's attitude was .

thumbs up, for as long as you can cope i dont care. why i asked is because am a corp member and i teach in a school so what you see are 7 year olds in jss1 and that scared the shit out of me because i kept wandering why thier parents jumped classes for them. the dowbside is thier level of assimilation is low and thier performance poor.

I think its high time parents/guardian began close monitoring of kids mood swing type. Depression is so crazy that the devil uses it to make you do what u can't ever imagine.

However, the girl's friends & her kind of parents made her do this. I trust my mum, she detects I have issues at heart even without telling her and she won't let me be until I spit it out.

Finally, I understand issues do exist but believe me suicide is never an option.

You know what,no one has ever changed the world by doing what the world tells them to do. F grades doesn't mean kids are dumb, it means they have their own minds and ideas which are different to the teacher marking their course-work

Lol... I quite agree with you. Just imagining how lucky your kids are for having a father like you.

Well done sir! The problem with kids nowadays is that once their friend gains admission they will make it their life mission to gain admission without proper planning just because that said friend is going to an higher institution.

Nigerian education is almost not education
most Nigerians who graduate with 1st class will not outshine a 19 year old Chinese worker.
What do Nigerian graduates invent and how many have jobs with their education?

A good training in say electrician, plumber, farmer, is way better than a Nigerian degree!

I am saddened about this tragedy.

Way forward.
1. Don't send emotionally immature kids to the university, if you have to, let them go from home or attach them to a guardian.

2 Our university system has failed. That is why students live off campus, a year one Pupil ' for that matter. Authorities should do d needful and build more hostel.
Again most students were helped to pass Jamb and Waec, hence when they gain admission it becomes difficult to cope.

3. Parents. Be strict but don't be dreaded by your children. Teach them the right thing but don't make them fear � you. Dear parents, let us stop destroying our kids by aiding their results through malpractices. Why not enrol them for remedial studies instead of passing utme and weac at all costs?

4. Society. Let us stop putting pressure on people because they didn't turn up as we expected. Every body is got a different talent and school or good grades is not a guarantee of success. Examples are Bill Gate, Mark of facebook and even our own Dangote. Let me add that some of our governors are carpenters. D. Some people even claimed our own only bubu has only a 'nepa bill '
not a fan of mediocrity, but what lies in us is much more than a degree certificate.

5. Friends and colleagues. If you noticed a friend or colleague who behaves strangly, move closer and a little word could save a soul. A word of encouragement could heal that bleeding heart ♥.

I could recall a guy in our first year in school. He was admitted to study Chemical Engineering. The guy seems very studious, but at the end he was on d brink of being withdrawn with a cgpa of less than 1. He confided in me and I advised him to write another JAMB and I gave him my Chemistry textbook (Aba bio) I don't know where he is now.

Finally, little angel, find rest with the lord.
May God give your parents and family and friends plus the OAU family d fortitude to bear your demise.

My fingers ache. I rest my case. Adieu dearie!
