If you are close to Children, even at 9,10 years of age,
They will tell you things about their parents.

One Girl of 10 years old then, told me that her Father 'hand of Eba big ehn'.

The only secret my children's teacher know about us is our real names and religion. Every other thing, they don't know.

I and my wife are very adept at keeping our kids away from our personal businesses...

Hehehehe.
Just laughing at you.

Ur kids can stumble upon things like ur date of birth or Certificate.

Dat's how one Boy of 8yrs told his friend 'My Father is 40years this year o'..

His friend replied 'Just 40years? Ur Father is a Small Boy nah'.

This is a wrong analogy but I pity the teachers who often don't know if it is real talk or drunk talk just like police officers don't know if the criminal is saying the truth or making things up. So take everything kids say with a pinch of salt, add water 💦

You make me laugh. Spent several years in the best American and British schools in Nigeria. They spill alot even at 6th form stage. Alot sef

I follow you laugh. Even in the prisons, info de flow not to talk of children who probably don't have parents who look after them and pay expensive fees to dump them at schools. Na everything school Wan monitor?

I think My kids have outgrown that phase.
Anyone that spill unnecessary information to his teacher will be receiving Oraimo cord whenever I finds out.

Yes, you heard me right.

NL does not support violence!

There are some lines you don't cross in international schools...

There are discussions u dont have with pupils, there are questions or favours you don't ask from them or their parents

I beg to disagree. How do you think social services get to know what goes on in homes in the Western world, the teachers. They subtly engage those kids in discussions, especially coloured, sad or agitated kids. All they need is to ask the kid if everything is alright at home, and kids who have no filters, divulge how the mama or papa spanks him...problem begins

Why then will it still be deemed a secret if they are meant to know?

Yes we know because life is a small world, we end up knowing because either one us is close to the parent' ward. One of the teachers might have schooled with the parent before or maybe the teacher mother or father may know the parent father or mother. Teachers always know we just pretend. Where yoruba and Igbo people dey dem.no go know your secret. Dey play

GistMedia0:
There's been a trending conversation lately and it's stirring up some serious thoughts: "Be nice to your children's teachers because they know your secrets!"

At first, it sounds like an exaggeration—until you think about it. Many parents are beginning to realize that their children, especially in their early "talkative" phase, often spill family gist without filters. Whether it's dad snoring like a generator, mummy shouting like a Nollywood actress, or the exact words you used during that last fight, children don’t hold back!

In fact, some Nigerian parents already jokingly call it "cho cho cho phase"—that time when your child talks non-stop and everything at home becomes public knowledge, courtesy of innocent storytelling in school.

Class teachers, being close to the kids, hear a lot. And sometimes, you as a parent might not even be aware of what your child has said until a teacher brings it up subtly—or you hear it from someone else.


So, let's talk:

Do your children's teachers actually know your secrets—because of your kids?

Not all kids are cho cho cho and not all teachers are nosy

I went to pick up my little daughter one afternoon and I realized her classmates were unusually quiet. Quite unlike them as they always welcomed me with smiles and excitement. My daughter came out to meet me with the same countenance, so I asked her what the problem was. She now responded that was I not the one that beat her up earlier on in the morning? So she had to tell her classmates what I did. I asked her is that why they didn't greet me? She said yes.

If this happened in UK or German school, your daughter is no longer yours.

Hopez456:
This is very accurate. I remember when I was hustling as a school teacher, children in a primary class were one day gisting among themselves and mimicking the ringtones of their parents in the other room. I particularly remember a boy mimicking either the dad's or mum's tone that sounds like that of a goat. I was shocked!

Children know a lot and talk a lot about activities that goes on in the home.

Lol... Naughty kids

One of my pupils publicly says his father smoke cigarettes,even when his father looks innocent.

What is “hand of Eba”?!

That's why parents must be careful what they do or say in the presence of their kids. I have one talkative daughter at home too.

A teacher don't don't need to ask before these kids tell you everything about their homes and parents.

There are two things kids does perfectly out of their innocence.

1. They are very open about everything around them.

2. They lied alot when the tied is not in their favour or if they are under threat of punishment.

After a year the pupil promotes to next class.

Okay
