Says someone who will be angry if someone lied to him 🙄🙄

Sometimes is better to keep quiet when you don't know what to say honestly.

Minjim:
Can an undisciplined child be taught?

iykepromotions:
correcting is part of the teaching. Parent questioning a teacher why did he correct or discipline his child is causing more harm and hatred to the child.

Cj4charles:
Imagine what you are saying, how will they learn what he is teaching without been disciplined to learn it??

I remember once I fart loud, and the frustrated teacher pin point me, out of fear I gaslight her it was the guy beside me, the kid besides me probably did not clean his ass well so the teach ask another student to small both our arses and the students overreacted after placing his nose near the victim... The witch beat him mercilessly. I still sometimes feel guilty for that.smile, if such beating, happened dis days, is calls child abuse, I sch at army children, Kaduna, dose punishment den! 1995, if any soldiers should try it now, he will end in jail, so anything calls disciplines, no dey again

I am sure she is dead by now. Mrs Ojo. NEPA Staff School Sapele

For the record: PURE CHILD ABUSE, that was beyond discipline

muyico:

Do u know what it means to teach?

ambale:
We shouldn't continue this way, a young boy not more than 20 years nearly cut off his father's head last week just because the man asked him why he dey smoke upandan

This untrained kids will become a big problem to our society in the future

The government needs to redefine discipline in children abeg

I can't even stand a spoilt child and that's why I will never apply for a teacher's job in Nigeria

muyico:
one teacher did it of recent, to 3yrs old, u guyz were d1, advising d woman, to get d teacher arrested, I don't know d fate of that teacher! Mayb women right don carry d case for head,

Last week, something happened in my class that left me thinking deeply about parenting and discipline.

I gave my students homework on Friday, to be submitted on Monday. Come Monday, I noticed one of them quietly scribbling away in class. I walked closer and yes, she was writing the same homework I gave days ago.

When I asked her, she denied it immediately. Boldly. Without blinking. I felt disappointed, not just because she didn’t do the homework, but because she lied.

So, I raised my voice a little (in love, not in anger), and told her to kneel outside the class for lying. No beating. No insults. Just correction.

The next day, her mother stormed the school.
“Why did you bully my child?” she asked.
I was stunned.
Bully? Because I corrected her child for lying and doing homework in class?

That moment made me realize something. Many parents today don’t want teachers to correct their children, yet they still expect those same children to grow into disciplined adults.

Dear parents,
When you defend your child’s wrongs instead of addressing them, you’re teaching them that lying is fine as long as someone covers for them.

Discipline isn’t hatred. Correction isn’t bullying.
Teachers are partners in raising your children, not enemies.

What do you think, should teachers stop correcting children to avoid being misunderstood, or should we keep doing what’s right no matter what?

muyico:
No African pikin wey no dey lies, is traits! Do Ur job and go home, Ure employed to teach them ,

RolexOfGeneva:
You are not a trained educationist, your comment proves that. Punishments are done following the principles of reward and punishment.

uchman:
Our Nigerian teachers are also failing in doing what they are supposed to do, the basic activities a teacher is supposed to perform in the classroom before any teaching to build good relationships with the kids, teachers don’t do it.
How do you as a teacher expect to correct a child that’s scared of you?

When I was an ESL teacher teaching kids in Asia before any class, we must need to sing, dance, play, jump, have fun and others but in Nigeria here, a teacher will not have such time reason maybe because of their peanut salaries.

Olatara:
I know, do not try to discipline them if they fall short.

Lagos state government is not joking with child abuse.

That's the new world we found ourselves.

muyico:
go disciplines someone child, if u will not in jail, nowadays disciplines is calls child abuse

Love800:
Yea. I really appreciate.

joyteachdaily:
so as her teacher I'm not qualify to do that? hmm

Olatara:
Like the guy above, you were paid to teach and not to discipline.

No dey stress yourself. If she doesn't do her home-work, document it and make it known to the school authority.

That's the schools and parent problem to deal with.

richiemcgold:
All these anomalies can only happen in a private school. I'll keep saying it, proliferation of private schools in our primary and secondary educational system is more of a problem than a blessing. They can't correct and control the children. They can't even ask a poorly performed student to repeat a class. Everybody must be promoted at the end of the session.
.. the worst of it all is the way they encourage cheating and exam malpractice in their schools, especially WAEC & NECO. 🤥 WTF?

LordReed:
So 1 parent out of at least 20 in your class translates to many? Take it easy with the over sensationalism.

Yes some parents are spoiling their children but the majority aren't.
