MOST PARENTS OF TODAY ARE RAISING AN "OVERDEPENDENT GENERATION"

1. You cook their food for them so that they can read and enjoy.

2. You help them to wash their clothes and tidy their rooms.

3. You drop them off in school every day by yourself!

4. You lie on their behalf to get them out of trouble.

5. You arrange "expo" to help them pass their exams.

6. You protect them from every danger and difficulties.

7. You prevent them from any form of pain and suffering.

8. You don't want them to suffer like you did as a child.

9. You hustle around while they watch films and play games.

10. They can't go out alone because you're always scared.

11. You take every decision for them, because you're wiser.

12. You go to their schools to fight for them and prove rights.

13. You defend them even when they're wrong and at fault.

14. You can not stand seeing them starve or go hungry for once.

15. You fight against those who try to correct them.

I PITY YOU

.....YOU ARE BUSY RAISING AN OVER- DEPENDENT GENERATION.

You think you are showing them LOVE ?

SORRY, YOU'RE WRONG!!!!

By the time you're no longer there and they face real life challenges, they will become helpless !!!

At that stage, they will realise the havoc you have done to them and CURSE YOU !!!

STOP RAISING AN OVER-DEPENDENT GENERATION!!!

Allow these children to face realities of life !!!

Be careful !!!

Raising Responsible Children

1. Give your children age-appropriate domestic tasks, even if you have a thousand and one domestic servants at home. It is sheer ignorance to think that doing everything for your children is a mark of honour or a way of bequeathing royalty on them.

2. Teach them to be useful and make their impact felt positively wherever they are found – in the school, place of worship, in another person’s home, etc.

3. Encourage your children to always leave a good impression wherever they go to; teach them to be courteous, respectful, friendly, cheerful and helpful.

4. Teach them good toilet manners – they must know how to keep the toilet neat for the next user, let them know that it is unacceptable to leave the bathroom floor and/or walls messed with soap, foam or any form dirt after bathing.

5. Teach your children the importance of taking good care of their body and their environment; whether they are at home or elsewhere. Remind them that responsible people don’t leave their rooms unkempt or their bed unmade when they get up in the morning; teach them to bath very well and smell fine always. It is unbearable to have a smelly young person around you; let them take care of their armpits, teeth, hair, nail, etc.

6. Teach your children to manage their used clothes and other personal belongings very well, whether in their home or elsewhere. It can be irritating to have dirty clothes or shoes, especially those of a visitor litter every corner of the house.

7. Let them pack their toiletries before leaving home. Your children should not depend on their hosts for their basic toiletries like soap, cream, tooth paste and other essentials.

8. Teach your children to dress well all the time, especially when they are spending time with another family. You probably allow your daughters to dress in bum shots and your sons to walk about with their chest bare in your home, but they may not be safe if they do so in another place. You may not know where a predator would lie in wait for a child.

9. Teach them good table manners; not the one recited in nursery schools rhymes. Teach them to chew with their mouth covered, not to make noise with the cutlery on their teeth, not to talk with their mouth full, etc.

10. Let your children know that washing only their own plates after eating is not a noble idea.

11. Remind your children that jumping into a conversation when adults are talking is a sign of being ill-mannered. Discourage this both in your home and elsewhere.

12. Help your children not to be social birds online and anti-social bugs offline. They should relate well with people around them, much more than they do with virtual folks they meet online. Please, discourage this idea of young people locking themselves in the room hours on end without communicating with anyone in the house – all because they are on phone.

13. Empower your children to uphold your family values wherever they are. But before then, make sure that your family values are credible, empowering, socially and morally beneficial.

14. Teach your children to control their appetite and learn to turn down certain offers, even when such offers come from people they know. And at home, it is not compulsory that they must taste everything they see someone eating. This will help them to take their eyes away from certain things when they are in other people’s home.

15. Always remind your children that they are the window through which the world sees you. If your children’s behavior outside is bad, the general consensus is that they lack home training. And since children are not meant to give themselves home training, it means that you failed as a parent.

16. Finally, make sure your children know God. Salvation is not hereditary; that you are godly or highly spiritual is not a guarantee that your children are saved. You must consciously and deliberately lead them to God

My fellow parents, let us try our best to make sure these children represent us well. I am sure you will feel good if you come to your children’s school and people are pointing at you as the parent of the best behaved child in the school. Won’t you?

THE SCHOOL OR TEACHERS CAN'T GIVE THEM ALL!

MAY GOD ALMIGHTY MAKE OUR CHILDREN RESPONSIBLE AND SUCCESSFUL!!

When I started Nairaland, I operated it all by myself, but by 2007 I was overwhelmed. Mukina2 swooped in and volunteered to be a super-moderator. She also helped me to recruit section moderators. This enabled us to move forward. Initially, she worked for free, but over time she became a paid supermod. One of the best.

Last month, I gave her a particular instruction which is the most basic instruction you can give a moderator. Clean up ALL the sections you've been assigned to and report to me after EACH one. She steadfastly refused until the month end. She felt that she was doing her job and there was therefore no need for me to tell her what to do.

I insisted that she must choose between resigning and following this particular instruction. She eventually chose to resign, saying "let's go our separate ways". We will miss her a lot. I will miss her a lot. I wish her the best in all her future endeavours. She will do great. She may return if she changes her mind, but the show must go on.

Her choice to resign is personal i guess.

I wish her the very best.
NB: Can I apply for the post of a MODERATOR? Been an hardent follower here since 2011. I promise to do my job with little or no supervision.

Hello house, I took time to go through the forum to see if there is someone who has experience this my situation but I found none. Pls why is the NiN section asterisk in red? What do I need to do? Help a curious soul!

May be there are discrepancies in your NIN details, Guess name arrangements or mispelt alphabets or age doesn't tally with your uploaded/submitted details during registration.

stacyadams:
My collection date na tomorrow for festac..I no know weda the tin go don ready make I no waste t.fare?

You have to wait for four-five weeks after your capturing date before it will be ready for collection else you just wanna waste your tfair if you follow the machine date given to you inform of slip on your capturing day.
Check your capturing day and calculate/tick 4-5weeks on your calendar.

December i posted here when i lost a job
Now after January 21days Fasting & Prayers,
God shows up surprisingly I was called back to resumed first of this month which I've already started.
It was God marvelous bc nobody ever sacked there has ever been called back.
Even as it isn't a big time job I gives God thanks & keep praying for upliftment.

So never say God doesn't answer prayers & don't relent, just keep praying & believed it will happen.

AJOBI77:
Good morning all,

I just verified by bro NIN on the passport application portal but I noticed nothing was written on the Marital status part.

Do you think it's safe to go ahead with the application?

Kindly advise if you have experienced such and what you did

It doesn't matter bro, that means as at the time of registration, your bro was yet to get married and if he has, the registrant deliberately omitted the space coz it doesn't matter. The only details they needed are NAMES, DOB CORRELATING with your other docs

Amen. You welcome bro

Horllar1990:

Tonelro4real:
Good guys.
Which of the approved channels for payment for passport is the best in terms of seamlessness and cost implications?
Thanks.

Choose Paystack

Horllar1990:
I paid with the bank USSD code bcus I don't have ATM card. Although it's showing paid, but I've been to the immigration office twice,they told my payment hasn't dropped. Is there anyone here with similar experience.

The more reason why we always advice ppl to pay via credit card. Paying via ussd may delay your transactions coz until the biller fund (Immigration)their account, they can't process your capturing. As it is now, you have to wait until they fund them before they can attend to u
