My Father Was Too Hard On My Brother Growing Up by onila(op): 1:09pm On Dec 21, 2015
usually when young kids come back to Nigeria from the UK

they find it too difficult to cope in the Nigerian system
there are so many cases where the kids are taken one class back

UK system is more of practicals esp in elementary school not learning theories or more of less practical than Nigeria

I coped easily and didnt take a class back
but my brother cldnt

instead of my father to give him time to adjust
he used to beat him wen he came back home with bad results

my father being an influential man in his community
the pressure on my brother to be smart was so high '
since hes the first son

you have to be patient with children and not rush them esp with something sensitive like education
