The point the person was making isn’t that it’s an issue to pay your balance in full - obviously that’s best practice and what everyone should be doing. The point was that everyone claims they do that, which is sus, to say the least, because it’s statistically improbable. Especially because it usually comes up when some people are encouraging ’newbies’ to apply for cards (without mention of whether they need it and can handle the responsibility). 2 Likes |

justwise: Every single time I’ve read a comment on this page about credit cards and the person has talked about their payment habits, it has been that they pay in full every month. Every single time. P.S. This is not worth debating. I provided clarity on what I believe that person meant which was different from how you interpreted it. It was ultimately just lighthearted banter anyway so I’m dipping here 🙌🏿 I no fit argue over another person joke abeg 1 Like |

Hello everyone. My son turned 4 this May and his words are not clear enough. He can recite the alphabets and spell 2 letter words, speak complete sentences, make conversations and can read and write but his speech is not completely clear. When he speaks fast. We can hardly hear what he's saying. Nursery teacher has asked that we fill a form for them to book him in to see the GP so he can be checked. I was wondering if its advisable to to fill the form? We are afraid he may be stigmatised as having a condition and so trying to see if we can wait it out. We also dont want him to loose his confidence or retreat into himself in the process of being worked on by the specialist. We were hoping when he turns 4 he would outgrow it but we are still hhopeful. Whats your take on it please? Thanks. |

Joyfuljoyful: There's no stigma for accessing a Speech and Language Therapist and his words not being clear isn't a condition yet - not until 1. It continues and 2. There's an official diagnosis. You may well see the SLT and they decide all is well. Or you see the SLT and it turns out your child needs extra support. Access and receive any support that your child needs. 5 Likes |

Joyfuljoyful:Do not be scared. If you listen to other kids in his class majority of them sound the way he sounds. Sometimes the teachers maybe don’t get that these sounds and speech will form at the appropriate time. I have attached a photo- it is a summary of speech sounds he should be making. Look at the table.. and check against the sounds he should be making now at 4 years old. The help they want to get for him is speech and language therapy I believe. If he is referred to the GP, GP’ll most likely do a referral to SALT and try to get him an appointment date with SALT. If this happens he will be assessed for elements like play, understanding, attention, speech etc. I wont be too worried. Just go with the flow and you can give into any referrals whilst you practice during this summer holiday his sounds as attached. If he is speaking fast, they tend to use a lot of jargons at this age too.. that’s probably the one the teacher says he is not speaking clearly. By 5 years all this would have cleared up in most children Also no shouting and over correction. If he speaks the one you dont hear clearly, rather than correcting you say the right thing Eg Mommy I want to eat pish.. rather than pronounce f for fish as f , he pronounces it as ‘p’ The right thing for you to do is say okay my boy I will get you some fish to eat, you pronounce the right one and not start saying it is not phish .. it is fish You make it worse this way 20 Likes 7 Shares

I pay my credit card in full also because I believe its currently the best path to my financial future, plus I too like money, why dash CC company interest if I can avoid it.

Joyfuljoyful: Stigma ke ....your mind should not even go there. In their generation such a thing won't even exist. There so many special needs everywhere so please remove that from your head fast fast . Many workplaces this is even highlighted these days and promoted as inclusion in the workplace , how much more in later year . He wont have special need by God grace but even if he has that ok too. What important is that the child is getting the help and support he needs .any thing they say you should fill, fill it. Any help you are giving take it fast. What important is that the child is adequately supported so he can flourish. If he out grows it which is possible then all well and good. .... you too continue to research and see how you can add your own support. It takes a village to raise a child , the parent plus whatever support system is needed 8 Likes |

This is discouraging people to share their stories. What is wrong with all nairaland choosing to pay their CC in full every month and advising people to do the same? How are you sure those that have made the comments are not doing so? You are claiming people are putting down a profession and you are also using your comments to put down and discourage people by insinuating that a lot of people are lying. How did you know? Regarding 60k salary, I have read less than 10 people that mentioned they earn that amount. I even admire their openness to share their take home on this forum. Do you know how long a lot of people on this forum have been in the UK? What's wrong with them earning over 60k when even some new people in the UK earn that? Tier4Dependant: 10 Likes |

Your statement in bold is an exaggeration. How many people have made the claim on nairaland? I have tried searching for the last 20 pages that mentioned credit cards and hardly read about people bragging that they pay in full. I have even seen comments of people advising people to be careful with credit cards as well. See this for example https://www.nairaland.com/6719932/living-uk-life-immigrant-part-2/527#114914228 See the positive that good advice is being dished out on the proper way to use credit cards. koonbey: 3 Likes |
