Hmm! Nah wah to some nairalanders oo.. Why asking her? If atall she did schooled there, do u xpect her to affirm she was the one stalking you?
RomanceRe: Confessions Of A Fat Girl by donem: 11:08pm On Jul 16, 2013
@ Op i feel your pain, i think you are Psychologically inbalanced, which leads to your low self esteem thereby making you feel excessive self pity on your situation. Have it in mind that there are peolpe who weigh more pounds than you but dont feel as bad as you feel for yourself. Will advice you be more conservative on your fat intake and try enrolling in a weight loosing routine.
Besides @Op how come you registered yesterday and your first topic hit the front page same day? Hmmm! Smh! Wish you the best though, Am outa here.

Sterling Towers: The Rich man should be charged to court of law for conspiracy to commit Manslaughter and multiple manslaughter.
I think thats harsh, the report has it that "in line with the spirit of Ramadan, the
businessman had made it a point
duty to assist the poor in the past 40
years" So i think its just a case of goodwill gone sore.

wilxz: The Northern Elite cannot extend their goodwill in terms of education, instead of giving them free food why not give them scholarships. They always like see people bowing down to them at every corner.
I think education is key over there, because the increase of Mendicants popularly known as almajiris is quiet alarming.

Family5 Questions To Ask Before Purnishing Your Child by donem(op): 9:02am On Jul 16, 2013
People get into heated debates about
how to purnish children. Should you
spank or use Time Out? Should you take
away privileges for a few days or should
you ground them more
weeks on end? How or if you purnish your child is an extremely personal
decision, but one that is necessary. No
parent wants to be seen as the bad guy,
but it is important to have a method to
deal with your child’s behavior when he
gets out of line. But before you get to the point when
need to apply punishment, you should
ask these 5 questions to make sure that
you address the situation in a loving
manner.

1. Have I established household rules
that are fair and reasonable?
As a parent, you must establish
boundaries and set expectations for
behaviour. Without clearly defined
household rules, children are prone to
go their own way and it's unfair to
punish them for doing something that they didn't know was inappropriate.
Your household rules need to be fair,
reasonable, and reflective of your belief
system. Once your rules are established,
you must explain the consequences for
breaking the rules. When kids understand the rules, expectations, and
consequences they are more apt to
adjust their behavior accordingly.

2.Does the behavior warrant
punishment?
Children makes mistake. Sometimes
they make a lot of mistakes. It is
unwise to punish children every time
they do something wrong. You must
use your wisdom and discernment to
determine which behaviors actually warrant punishment. If you punish
children for every discretion, the
punishment will lose it's desired effect.
Your kids need to understand that their
actions have consequences, but they
also need to know that you are willing to demonstrate forgiveness.

3. Is the punishment appropriate?
If you deem that punishment is the
appropriate response for your child's
infraction, you have to decide what is
appropriate. It's easy to overreact and
dole out a punishment that is too harsh.
On the flip side, you have to make sure that you aren't being too lenient or else
the punishment will be ineffective. You
must also keep in mind that each child
is different. What works for one child
may not work for another child.
Unreasonable punishments can lead to resentment.

4. Are my emotions under control? The worst thing a parent can do when
punishing a child is to react out of
anger. When you allow your anger to
control your behavior, you may do
things that you will letter regret -
things that could scar your child physically and emotionally. If your child
misbehaves in a way that deserves
punishment, take some time to allow
your anger to subside before reacting.
Once your emotions are under control,
then you can respond to the offense with clarity and compassion.

5. What can my child learn from this
experience?
When children misbehave, parents
have the opportunity to teach valuable
life lessons about right and wrong,
repentance, and forgiveness. Don't get
so caught up in the punishment that
you fail to use the situation as a teachable moment.
