Family › Re: I Am Proud Of How I Was Raised, That's How I Will Raise My Children by mcdokwe(op): 11:10am On Aug 07, 2020
Dear Newbreed2018,

I have fought hard to not dignify your comment with a reply. However, I'm happy to note that I live in your mind.

Thank you.

Exmilitant:
Maybe just maybe i was a product of my environment. Eventually, i made a U-turn and towed the right path. So your analysis doesn't apply.
Does that environment include you parents that tried to mould you?

Exmilitant:
Op, despite all the beatings i recieved from mama and papa in the name of discipline, i still turned out a rugged cultist and a militant. So what exactly is your point?
Maybe, just maybe you were beyond redemption.

Liken your case to a child born prematurely, there are chances of survival if adequate medicare is administered, thereby increasing the chances of it living a normal life(not assured), but if neglected, death is certain.

Do they know you 'cancelled' them?

What loss are they likely to suffer from the said 'cancelling'?

For those who did a change of course, their are glitches from JAMB that might make it impossible for you to register currently.

Be patient.

Politics › Re: I Weep! by mcdokwe(op):
The National anthem meant more than just a recital; each word we sang we engraved in our hearts, to follow true when the baton is eventually passed because we believed we were going to lead tomorrow and wanted our future generations to also take pride in the sacrifices we were prepared to make.

Years down the line, I wonder where all those promises went.
I see how beautiful and easy things could be if only we towed the path we all should know is right.

I fail to see the gains of excessive bickering battering going on everywhere.
I fail to see how other people's life meant little to us even when their pain adds no value to us either.

I fail to see how power suits only to serve the purpose of oppression to those who wield it.

I fail to see how those beautiful shades of colours represented by varying cultures seem so gloom and barbaric from a distance.

I fail to how reasonable adults wake up in the morning hungering for fights with people they don't even know.

I fail to see how we all don't see the damage and startle ourselves awake from the nightmare that has become the lives of many and make this nation great as promised.

And for these and more I weep, I weep and hope for a better nation I believe you and I can decide to build and once again take pride in.
Politics › Re: I Weep! by mcdokwe(op): 9:43am On Aug 06, 2020
We wanted to be doctors so we could cure not to make money even at the expense of human lives.

We wanted to be soldiers not to intimidate and maim but because we love our country and wish to protect it.

We wanted to be teachers not because there were no jobs but because we loved to interact and groom others.

We wanted to be farmers not because we were poor or to cheat others, but because we loved to watch the seeds sprout and boom.
Politics › Re: I Weep! by mcdokwe(op): 9:32am On Aug 06, 2020
Nigeria was a great country and we were all proud of it.
Within those classes, our future in it was insured and there were no need to build bridges because there were no divides.

The leaders made sacrifices that brought tears and moulded the sense of patriotism in us.
We knew exactly what we needed to be to make our Nation even greater.

But having grown up, all these seem to be a mirage.

Leadership has proven to be means of primitive accumulation of wealth without regard for human life.

Ethnicity seem to be another name for a wild unending gulf restricting people from ever coexisting peacefully.

All we were taught seem to be just a wishful thinking of those who taught us. We never saw it and we never work for it to come.
Politics › I Weep! by mcdokwe(op):
I weep when I see all happening around here.
I wail even more with the realization that this space mirrors a to a large extent, the stark reality of our Nation and I wail thinking of what it portends to our future, individually and collectively.

Growing up, Social studies was my best subject. Little wonder 'Uncle Johnson' like we fondly called him was one of my favourite teachers at the Police Children School, Sokoto. (No, my Father wasn't a police officer)

It was so because it was fun learning about other people's cultures. Living outside my place of origin, it also presented the opportunity of learning things I didn't learn from home about my own culture.

We interacted effortlessly with people from other cultures and the differences in name meant nothing.

Friendships were built without recourse to linguistic or ethnic differences, if sides were created, it was just for fun and never lasted beyond the period it was meant to serve.

The real problem is not being able to distinguish between discipline and abuse.

When you punish a child either by enforcement or denial for a wrong done, it is discipline.

When you punish a child either because you don't love them or in a disproportionate manner to their perceived wrongdoing, then it might be termed abuse.

It is okay if you decide not to discipline your child, but be sure to establish boundaries that some of their attitudes are tolerable only in your homes, they should understand that they shouldn't try same outside the confines of the 'safe havens' you built for them as parents.

Until I hear from the MD and other members of the IMC side because most of the lawmakers reports are primarily released to discredit the current IMC.

Corruption has indeed eaten deep into the fabrics of our dear nation.

Why is this charade permitted to go on in Edo state?
What's the fate of the constituents who were denied representation ?

Alas, this country is on autopilot where anybody can determine the direction of governance without due recourse to constitutionality.

Family › Re: The Thoughts Of These Kids Always Come To My Mind, What Should I Do? by mcdokwe(m): 7:48am On Aug 05, 2020
Billionsclub:
I am a private school teacher but since the lockdown, I had to start doing home lessons for people just to make ends meet. I have two kids in my street, they are orphans. They are twins. They live with their grandmother who lives in a room apartment. These children have never been taught since the lockdown. I am praying for them seriously that God would raise helpers for them. But my mind has been disturbing to employ a home lesson teacher for them. I would have thought them personally but I can't because I move from home lesson to home lesson. I get home almost 7pm. I am thinking about employing a home lesson teacher for them this week. But I am scared that I may not have enough funds to take care of myself. The thought of these kids have refused to leave my mind. please what should I do?
pardon my typographical errors.
Maybe you should bring them to a particular home close to them and teach them together, of course after discussing with the home owners

Mindlog:
So convicted criminals in Nigerian prisons (correctional facilities) and those still out there committing crimes of various sorts are the outcome of not being beaten when they were kids?
When you raise your kids right, they become better people for the society.

I sha pray her phone wouldn't 'spoil' the next time she sees another guy that picks interest in her.
Romance › Re: We Ain't Dating Yet - Should I Get Her A Phone? by mcdokwe(m): 11:03pm On Aug 04, 2020
Take her to a phone repair shop to get it fixed.

There's nothing wrong with giving her a new phone, but it shouldn't be such that her response should be tied to the phone.

Can you move on and forget the phone if she rejects your proposal if and when you gather the balls to tell her? Or you are the type that would either embarrass her into returning the phone or coming to say 'she rejected me even after I bought her a phone?'

Let your sense direct you sha

The hate speech bill has so far not been effective, especially considering the level of hate going on here.

If it were, Nairaland would have been shutdown for permitting so much bitterness and rancour.
