Mumben: Get lemon, cut in two and use it to rub ur armpit after bathing it has drying effect which will control excessive sweating thereby eliminating d odour. This suggestion is very effective, also try soaking ur armpit with baking soda and leave for 15 minutes before rinsing. Shave regularly 1 Like |

Family / Re: Can A Wife Undergo Family Planning Without Discussing With Her Husband? by realtalk19: 1:38pm On Nov 19, 2020 |
Angel196: This question was posted on a facebook group and I was baffled by some of the response that was given.
To me, maritally no woman has the right to undergo a family planning without first discussing with her husband just as a man doesn't have the right to do the same without discussing with the wife. Doing that would not only be inconsiderate but suspicious as well. Being married means you don't get to decide something that affects your spouse alone, unless you are ready to risk your marriage. That's why it's very important to discuss things like the number of children you'd like to have and the number of years you want between each before getting married. After all it's called Family Planning.
What's your take on this? Do you think a spouse be it a wife or husband has a right to undergo family planning without discussing with the other party? In some critical situations the wife can go for family planning codedly if the husband refuse to see reasons to it. |
Family / Father's Burial by realtalk19: 8:53pm On Nov 18, 2020 |
Are there any implications ( cultural or spiritual) of a child not able to attend the burial of the father being that the child grew up with the mother alone due to early separation and the father never reached out to the child until death after which the father's family informed the child who is the first born? 1 Like |
Romance / Re: Traits a man should observe in a woman when considering commitment by realtalk19: 2:12pm On Nov 13, 2020 |
CaveAdullam: Nothing there is difficult for a woman. It is as simple as ABC as it requires little muscular work and a good dose of mental capacity. In fact, all women were born with the aforementioned qualities, but squandered it away out of negligence, liberality, ignorance, and poor parental upbringing. Only when they are done with their debauchery days, and decide to settle down will they begin to discover and analyse the mistakes they've made in the past. Many of them are lucky though, because since majority of men has veered off from virility traits, they still settle for such kind of women----They've found true love at last. Loooooooool.
If women will not settle for less, men also must raise the bar and not settle for less also. This is stable enough.

Family / Re: My 3 Years Old Son Cant Read Nor Write, Help Pls by realtalk19: 9:10pm On Oct 22, 2020 |
kenny1111: Good afternoon everyone,
please I need advice from all parents and Educators and parents on Nairanland. today I just realized my 3years old son cant even read Letters A to F talk less of A to Z but can read Figure 1 to 10, I am seriously worried.
I don't stay at home except for weekends as I am working outside my state, but due to the curfew I find my way back home yesterday so I was able to discover this problem in the early hours of today.
I know the mother is trying cos I have seen different live videos where she was teaching him and working on his assignment, most times I pity the boy so much because of the beating from his mum alone makes me sick but I can't really complain since I know is for his own good and I know how stressful it is for a mother with 2 kids to manage her time and all that....
I called his teacher immediately and she told me my son will be going to Nursery class when the present term is over due to his age, sadly she didn't say things I expect to hear from her so I told her I will visit the school once the curfew is over, I need explanation, is private school that bad these days ? my son can't even write 2 and 3 I have bought Video CD, bought many play book materials containing letters and figures displayed boldly, I bought counting and so on when he was 2 years so i expect a better result by now.
pls sir and ma, I need help on how to guide this boy to learn better, what should I do and how should I go about it.
Note: any time I am home, I always go through his books, assignments and read his school rhymes for him. pls Help concerned Daddy
posted this on Other Educstion sections as well so as to have a wider views and opinions
thank u There is absolutely nothing wrong with your son. He is still a toddler and at this stage they are developing and absorbing everything they hear or see. Sometimes they repeat whatever you say. At this stage your son is just able to sound letters through songs and learn rhymes, identify colours and shapes, development of their pincer grip( finger muscles)using coloured pencils or wax crayons. At this stage they are able to communicate in their own words and also scribble not write. All kids are not the same ,some are slow learner's while some are fast learners , some kids have interest In pictures(visual characters), songs , puzzles, activities that develop their cognitive learning. Pls stop the beatings, encourage him and introduce Intresting activity toys to him, you can also try to find out their learning procedure at his school to be sure of what he is being taught. He wil turn out amazing and intelligent. Pls be patient. My kids don't start school until they are exactly 2yrs depending on their birth months even if they will exceed 2yrs I wunt mind ,what matters is their activeness and maturity in learning. 1 Like |

yemre: Bros, I had a similar experience. The ball is actually in your court but my piece of advise.,... 1. Try studying the man with the aim of winning him to your side (in my own case I did that thru his gf).
If that doesn't work....
2. Ensure you save up enough to start sth on the side such that your side hustle will give you sth substantial even if it's not up to 200k but make sure it's well over 100k.
3. Then, make yourself so valuable and plan your exit around the time you know the company will need you most. (Tho, they always claim no one is indispensable but replacing valuable staff is not always easy).
4. Write your boss a notice to quit and give him very short notice with a genuine excuse.
Also make sure your mind is made up so that promise of a payrise or better treatment will not appeal to you.
That way, he would realize his mistakes but would be too late to make amends. Exactly what I did at my last place of work. I felt relief for the first time In my 3yrs of working there.i got another one based on my experience at my former place of work with a reference from an official who knew me.

Career / Re: Secondary School Teaching Vs Lecturing: Which Of These Two Jobs Should I Choose? by realtalk19: 12:28pm On Oct 07, 2020 |
Emir8: Hello Nairalander, I really need advice concerning making a choice between the two jobs before me. My family members are divided over which job I should choose.
I'm working in a highbrow secondary school and my start up salary was N75,000. After three years, my salary is now N96,000.00. I just got a lecturing job with a private university and my gross salary according to the appointment letter is N88,000.00. My father wants me to continue with my teaching in the secondary school but my mother and fiancee are pressuring me to write acceptance letter to the university and accept the offer. There's no time, both the university and the secondary school will be resuming on 12/10/2020 and I have to make a choice between now and Thursday. My fiancee is already calling herself "wife of a lecturer" and threatening that she will quit the relationship if I did not accept the university offer. My mind is in the secondary school because there is free lunch and N150,000.00 housing allowance per year, but the university doesn't give lunch and housing allowance.
Should I go and become Mr. Lecturer and sacrifice my secondary school benefits? Hold on to the private secondary school post and be firm in ur discision. If your girlfriend like let her go she isn't meant for you. A better spouse will take over . 1 Like |

PeacenLove2: He left Again Part II story loading. Take him back, you hia?
To be serious, there is need to find out what occupied his life for 8 years when he abandoned you. So it's very important to know what kept him away. Only wicked, selfish people could do that ... forget how great he was back in school. Men can do anything just before climbing the mountain No be today. No
Yeah, your kid is having a ball with a dad in his life and you are probably lonely too but use your head, madam. You can help him out from a safe distance. He can have access to his child as well as long as it's good for the kid. You could even date him if you want but don't be quick to commit yourself to anything. Looks like guy is just desperate and you're making it too easy for him. Chances are he would bolt again when he feels comfortable enough.
In other words, let guy go get his act together first before you let him in again. You have a good heart sha. I hope this doesn't land you in soup. I don't know how you can trust such a person again. Be very careful and good luck whatever you do. I hope his intentions are good this time and he does right by you if you take him back. Well said. Just what I was about to type 1 Like |

I summoned courage to enquire why they were that disheveled, and one of them told me they were going to the administrative floor and needed to attend an important meeting, but waiting for someone to pick them up since they've not been there before.
I took them to the lift, we got to the admin floor, alighted, and then I took them to the location of the meeting. When they got there, I said bye hurriedly but not intentionally, I knew they were going to call me back for being that nice. As I made the first step, I heard "Gentleman, don't be so fast.

KingAzubuike: Normally BBN usually do medicals for potential housemates but due to the covid 19, they were asked to do the medicals themselves and submit the results. The only thing BBN did was to quarantine them for 14 days and that was all. The medicals was to be done by the HMs individually before the quarantine. I know this because prince is my boy and I was there when he did his.. For laycon to be in that house means he must have forged a medical certificate. He used a false medical result. He deserves to be disqualified for this. Who knows if he might be carrying HIV self coz his extreme skinny body looks like something that resulted form AIDS and a history of tuberculosis. Laycon is not a deserving winner of this. Lay lay of laycon got the 85m on lockdown. You cannot change that irrespective of his health status,it didn't restrict him from performance on the show. 8 Likes |
