So you're now supporting extrajudicial justice system right.....don't complain when it comes for you.....I pray it'll come to you soonest so you can enjoy it to the fullest.

SAMBARRY:
like I said IF I WAS A TEACHER


Obviously you're guilty of what I wrote because if not why are you this triggered and aggressive? I said what I said. I no hide mouth talk am,I talk am fully .you can raise you child however way you want, abi na my jajaina you take born am? Wetin be my own


Again you said another amusing thing that without you he can't make it in life? Joker.pupils spend more time in school with their teachers and peers than with their parents, teachers literally raise these kids and notice when they're sick,develop a bad behaviour or habit or are going through anything even before their parents realise it,so you're free to treat your children's teachers anyhow. Slap them sef if you like. And as for boundaries, you must be sick for you to attempt to twist my words and gaslight me.like I said,every teacher must know his boundaries, if a pupil doesn't want to learn,why are you doing too much by forcing the child to learn, leave him for his parents na.is it until the child lie on top your head say you are molesting or abusing her shoou

SixSeven:
All of you keep bringing your rules in defence of your children but don't think about when the child will become an adult and have to follow rules. Parents today want to use their adult profile for their children so of course, no one can help you parent your own child because only you can be the adult to speak to them and correct them YOUR WAY. Everyone else is not qualified to do it. The village did not raise the child by mistake but keep it up, na you go de there for your child 24/7.


No wonder society is having more problems than it can handle. I would let you know that your child will watch how you solve the problem and learn from you. Teacher no teach me nonsense.

SAMBARRY:
na them

Na those mothers wey go buy 1 carton of popcorn, ice cream ,indomie and all manner of junks and then be wondering why the child's attention span is low,why she's lazy,dull and not bright .all they want their kids to do is dance on tiktok all day,eat, watch TV,sleep.reading to them is punishment and doing assignments is abusive.

Coming to class late is good sef in their own dictionary. Wonkin shoromo

Major7:
I came from a decent and law abiding home. I don't pass my boundaries and while I was young,other parents use me as a yardstick for their kids cos I'm cool and lovable. So no nonsense comes to me. Besides I only speak the truth but doesn't mean I encourage extrajudicial justice system. Nigerians are stubborn,they tends to act like animals at home but get to US or UK and start behaving well, some people naturally needs flogging 😂

Mattswaggz:
I am never against discipline as well but call a spade a spade....the teacher is wrong in this case and the mother has every right to react in annoyance.....and supporting extra judicial justice system no matter how small it is or because it favors you is part of the reason why the country is the way it is today.....it is why a police officer can threaten to kpai someone and say nothing will happen.....it is why someone innocent can be keeled by a mob on mere accusations etc.

Gbadugbakun:
No teacher has the right to barb the hair of a child without the consent of the parents. If you try that with my child you're going to jail because I'll pay influencers to drag you and the school on social media and say that you use children's hair for rituals that's why you barb them without their parents consent.

Then I'll have the teacher arrested for rituals, she'll be remanded in jail while investigations go on. God help you if my child falls sick during that period, your own don be.

Just focus on your teaching and leave the kids alone.


Edit: ‎Its clear that many Nigerian don't understand what discipline truly means. I've been receiving emotional quotes with regards to my opinion. No wonder the world sees us as a jungle.
‎
‎I never Said discipline is bad I said shaving a child's hair without the consent of the parents is totally wrong and shouldn't be counted as discipline. Please try to read and understand with your head before quoting me.
‎
‎If you're a teacher in Europe or America would you shave a child's hair without informing the parents, you'll loose your license as a teacher and go to jail. There are some nonsense I cannot tolerate as a parent.

Major7:
I'm not supporting the teacher cutting the hair but some parents loves to tempt their resolve. Why would a parent for instance plait a boy child hair to school,use an expensive pendant on him to school and the likes and even hold the teacher responsible if the pendant goes missing? My uncle once did this nonsense but I told him he's wrong. My mom wasn't just a teacher but an H.M as well,we saw shege growing up and as a child,I wish she was dead but the old witch lives on 😁. I grew up to realize she's a blessing to me and my siblings. Discipline pays off eventually and it's a blessing in disguise.

Mattswaggz:
There is hardly anywhere you won't be tempted or pushed to the wall as a human being...how you react is what differentiate sane from insanity, civil from uncivil.....the teacher should simply report to the school authorities or check the if there are methods in place to handle such misbehaviors....if the outcome of reporting to the authorities or the methods put in place doesn't satisfy the teacher then he/she can consider resigning.....if this was a saner clime, this kind of actions can get the teacher to jail.

Stephen0mozzy:
So, to prove your point. You will lie?
I'm okay with getting the teacher arrested z because I would not tolerate such rubbinsh either.

But note, your child will learn from you, the level of maturity or immaturity you use to handle unpleasant situations.

Phred1717:
Kids are always dramatic, parents sacrifice so much on them. I cannot put my kids in a private school, paying about 800k in a single term and one teacher that is suppose to teach and leave the discipline aspect for the parents, start melting it on the kid. I once confronted a teacher that gave my 7years old child 100 frog-jump to do, all in the name of making noise in the class.
At the end of it, I personally gave the same teacher 300 frog jump to do.
Teacher nowadays transfer personally economy anger on student and parents really needs to watch their children

JASONjnr:
If your child carries unkempt hair before you and you do nothing about it, but will arrest a teacher for cutting the hair only describes you as a failure...

Is like some of you deliberately raised irresponsible children and send them out for trouble.....

HacheNoire:
To great extent, I believe the bolder.

Eager to heap every instances that they have failed as a parent on the teacher.

It was never like this before, parents and teachers worked hand in hand to instill knowledge and discipline in kids.

The wannabe ideology has now eaten deep into many mentally conquered parents that, they don’t even know right from left again. Neglect, indiscipline and unconsciousness has become fashionable.

“Team talk to the child” will tell you that, when your kid insults his teacher, just sit him down and tell him why it’s bad to insult his teachers”

They tell you that’s how it’s done in saner climes and why the worst set of kids and teens you will find on Earth are from same saner climes.

JASONjnr:
Just like insecurities and gay activities, I am beginning to believe that there is a power behind this sudden change in the norms....

Parents telling teachers to focus solely on teaching and not punish their kids but expect positive outcome from the teaching -learning process...

I taught as a corper and I understand the teaching profession and during my teaching career i experienced so many dirts in the system where students will threaten a teacher and get away with it because the child's parents is influential.

Host78:
Parents can be dramatic at times as we have seen in this recent video of the woman confronting her kids teacher.

Most of these kids can come home and narrate issues not as they were but as they feel it is.

I used feelings. Kids can easily feel things differently and exaggerate unnecessarily.

I used to teacher a primary school class with 11 kids in total.

Primary 5 then.

When I started, I was preparing them for common entrance exam immediately but I had a problem: most of the kids could not read properly.

Like 5 of them could not read a whole line in their textbooks without looking up to me for help.

Now these are kids going to jss 1 the next year. We all know in jss 1, you're expected to know how to read at least from my secondary school experience.

But there was one in particular that could not read at all.

I had to confront their previous teacher from primary 4 because I found it very sad that they will keep promoting these kids like that.

But she explained that the kids won't do their homework, she can't discipline them because they don't want to loose their kids to other schools (the proprietors instructions).

But I was determined to make sure these kids can read before they leave the school.

It's not small work o. I introduced them to Ugo c. Ugo.

Everyday, they are solving 50 maths questions as assignments. I remember the very first one, none got up to 5.

I punished them myself. Not harsh but since they were not used to any punishment, it was for them.

I made sure they crammed multiplication table from 2x1 up to 15x15.

For the reading, I reduced their break time to less than 15 minutes.

Most of them became better readers but this girl continued struggling. Not improving.

Then I started forcing her to attend my extra lessons. All the others attend after school but she's the only one not attending.

She said her parents don't have money (in the real sense she never informed them about it).

Anyways, I said OK. But she must attend the lesson. So even without pay, I still made her stay for the lesson.

I focused on her reading and maths (you always have to get this foundation right. Aside maths and English.. Reading, everything else from primary school is almost useless).

So we spent extra 2 hours drilling maths and English together.

Into their second term, I saw dramatic changes in their work.

But something happened one day. I gave them their usual 50 questions assignment and she looked at me straight in the eyes and said she would not do it.

I told her if you don't do it, don't even bother coming to school because I'll flog nonsense from your body.

She then said she'll report me to her mother. I told her to try it first.

The next day she came to school and truly she didn't do it.

After marking everything, I flogged shege from her body that day.

The next day, the mother was already shouting from the road leading to school dragging her daughter along shouting and speaking yoruba angrily.

I didn't get a word because I don't understand yoruba.

So I ask her to speak with the cleaner and interpret to me.

She spoke that so I want to kill her daughter. So you single my child out because you don't like her and all manner of stuff.

I could have gotten angry but I didn't. I explained everything to her.

Then I asked the girl to bring her books same as her classmates. They all brought their books.

And proudly I showed her everything. The weekly increases in their scoring from each assignment.

They all read a full passage from their textbook in front of her. You need to see her happy that day.

She apologized and asked me to calculate my lesson fee she's owing but I never did.

I later gained admission into the university. At that time, one of the mother of the boys in my class came and was saying when she took her son to one Ansarudeen lesson, the teachers were really happy because he could solve questions faster and in different methods than all the other kids (he was average in my class then).

But I never stayed to see all of them get into secondary school though.

I remember back then because of the dramatic change in their performance, the proprietor for the first time had to enroll them in an all primary quiz.

This was the first ever time she had tried it because according to her she didn't want to go and disgrace her school in such competition.

Although we didn't qualify but I strongly believe if the foundations had been right and they had been more strict, we would have done better.

Little discipline goes a long way in shaping kids. Kids don't know their left from their right, yet they can be very stubborn in their ways.

As you are entrusting them to teachers, learn to trust their judgments. But more importantly, if there's an issue, don't go fighting.

Teachers can easily neglect your child and watch her self destruct in that school, not only physically but academically.

Instead, go to them to reason with them. Find out the issue. Communicate your feelings and make them understand you and you too try to understand them.

No teacher, well, maybe some and very few at that will ever single your child with the aim of maltreating them.

Even some, will have their best interests at heart while punishing them severely but don't know that they are crossing your personal line.

Communicate this to them peacefully. Don't even let your child to be in the same room while this is going on.

My one piece

mjblinks:
You're right that children eventually grow into adults who must learn to follow rules and be accountable for their actions.

However, I think the concern many parents have isn't that teachers shouldn't correct children. It's about how that correction is done. Respect and discipline can exist together.

The saying "it takes a village to raise a child" is true, but the village also has a responsibility to guide children with fairness, patience, and understanding. Parents aren't asking to be the only voice in a child's life; they're asking that the adults around their children model the same respect and maturity they expect from the child.

Children learn not only from correction but also from the way adults handle disagreements. If a parent feels a teacher acted unfairly, addressing it respectfully teaches the child an important lesson too—that authority should be respected, but it can also be questioned constructively when necessary.

At the end of the day, parents and teachers are supposed to be on the same team. The goal isn't to defend bad behavior or attack teachers; it's to help children grow into responsible adults while showing them what healthy communication and mutual respect look like.

NwaliE01:
I think we need more legislatures that protects the teacher.

Mandem05:
I agree with you on this. But the teacher's action in this particular hair cutting incident was wrong. Unfortunately mama use the incident to go viral(wrong move) instead of handling the situation discreetly.
