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.

No teacher has the right to barb the hair of a child without the consent of the parents. I'd 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.

I said that parents today are the main problem with education today. Their ITK is destroying education. They don't know that teachers are their deputy parents for that period of school. If they think they can do the job, homeschool your child. Our parents had the wisdom to cooperate with teachers not these ones that want to do the teachers work and complain about everything. They don't think about teachers as partners in education, they see them as people to always be corrected and evaluated. Even parents realize that there is no manual for training children, how easy do you think it is for teachers? Make Una kwantinuu

Nevertheless, no school can work well for children if parents and teachers do not act in partnership on behalf of the children's best interests. Parents have every right to understand what is happening to their children at school, and teachers have the responsibility to share that information without prejudicial judgment.... Such communication, which can only be in a child's interest, is not possible without mutual trust between parent and
teacher."

I once believed Buhari had set the national standard for incompetence in governance. Looking back, it appears we had only seen the introductory chapter.

No matter how they did it, I had told a friend that these people would be freed before spending 3 nights with their abductors.
There was just too much at stake for the elite class here.
While I am glad they are now free, I find it hard to believe that no agreement was reached between the government/family and the abductors.
If that was the case, why then has such tactics not being employed to free the Ogbomosho students?

Well-said. The most vocal critics of PBAT are just ethno-religious bigots because the facts , beyond doubt, show he is a transformative President.

Didn't they say he is a democrat? A builder of men? A visionary? That man is just a greedy old man. Who was it that said if you let Tinubu in, he will grab more than he can take? Think about being a landlord of Lagos and Rivers 🤡

The greedy can never be satisfied. What they condemned when they were in opposition, now they are doing it.

Those who wanted to rewrite his story just made me chuckle. Guy didn't want Fashola serve a second term simply because he wanted to be President. He didn't want anyone to have a record to be compared to him or outshine him. They are just lucky Fashola did not show craze like Ambode did, someone they eventually sent away under the guise of GAC. They now claimed that he made Fashola, he built Lagos, Ambode did not follow master plan. You see how their stories are not consistent. They then called Osinbajo a betrayer. These ones are lords and serfs. Those who refuse to learn history are doomed to repeat it

If Tinubu was a smart and humane leader, he ought to have reversed fuel subsidy removal immediately and went back to drawing board to find how to go about it instead of allowing fuel subsidy removal to destroy Nigeria's economy as he watched poverty and sufferings skyrocketing in Nigeria while he kept gloating and telling Nigerians to endure, endure what? Endure collecting their collective resources and handing it over to state Governors and yourself to steal without any visible usage of the trillions saved from subsidy removal and you still kept borrowing more loans than when Nigeria was offering fuel subsidy.

Anybody supporting Tinubu's failed, directionless government need to do a self analysis of himself and family since Tinubu became President and tell themselves the truth

With the Minister of Finance we currently have, a tax expert, I am afraid things will not change. It's one thing for us to learn the education that was given to us, it's another thing to know who we are and what works for us. Many times what we often do is copy a western system to an African environment without thinking about the underlying issues. The result is obvious.

Our people go to Dubai, they know what the citizens enjoy and how their government supports citizens first before foreigners. From housing to education to employment but they will conveniently ignore that. They like to look for examples that show we are allies in suffering. That's why you see them say, you want all the good things in London but you don't pay your taxes. As if, to agree without conceding to that statement, those ones don't give their people service. I was writing about the Iran war and it still baffles me that US sanctions are good excuses for these guys to make their people poor. I don't want to say we are cursed. These guys we have are specialists in failure 👇

When Trump posted that he would bomb Iran to ancient civilization by targeting their bridges and energy infrastructure, the only thing that came to my mind was energy infrastructure. I've given up on bridges because in Nigeria, mediocrity is celebrated. 4th Mainland bridge is still on their mega plan while the Lagos-Calabar highway is completed since Obidients, Wailers and enemies of the State are already selling gala on its highway, hide your face!!!🙈

In this ongoing war, Iranian officials announced last week that they have restored electricity to their people despite attacks from Israel/US. 👇

Iran restores power to most parts of Tehran and Karaj after suspected attacks on infrastructure

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLGojjLbXKU?

It makes me ask the question, are we living in any civilization if we can't have light

A country at war cares so much to restore power to its people, they even provided updates on the power situation in their country, they didn't use the war as an excuse but in my own country, these wicked people use all manner of man-made excuses to put us in darkness, pain and suffering. Every Nigerian becomes an analyst, analyzing waterfalls from Kainji Dam to river sediments of Bakassi peninsular. May woe betide una 👐 It's not a curse. It is what you need because what you have shown us is that you are ungrateful. We are ungrateful people in this country and we should stop insulting God. Nigerians are the most ungrateful people on earth because God blessed us with abundance of resources and wealth but we insult the creator by giving weak excuses and ensuring that people suffer while we take care of our own immediate family and friends. We don't like ourselves, we just pretend we do.

In other countries, they make sure people are okay first. Here, we want to steal everything for ourselves and family, most people don't care about the state. They send their kids abroad, no excuses. They holiday abroad. They show off abroad. What kind of people are these? I can't just speak for God because if I were the one who created this kind of people, I would be so irritated because I see how you take pride in making your own people suffer but stash the money abroad. The president is in power, the supporters are more interested in peppering Obidients. If the president does well, isn't it to everyone's enjoyment and benefit? What sort of tomfoolery makes you bothered about opposition when you have the opportunity to use the goddamn power to fix things? I see in the war threads how people support either side but they don't reason. That country is a terrorist country as they claim here on NL but they have light. They have freaking light. No excuses. They are under sanctions. Here, they give all manner of excuses, sabotage the country, cache out our money, only for it to be used by their oppressors. Clowns 🤡

Nigerian incompetence thrives on world chaos so they can have something to justify their dirty bottoms. It's such a shame and a disgrace that Libya and Iran can have light but in Nigeria, we are ready to blame the world economy. Hisses

The master disaster is doing exactly what he knows how to do very well.

Reduce their purchasing power.
Widen the tax net.
Slow down the economy.

Then, finish them with hardship.

MemoriesAndMe:
I doubt the story too.

1. He went to Ladipo himself to buy spare parts for his vehicle. Doesnt he have a mechanic that shoul do that for him?

2. He was there at Ladipo market he was trying to replace the part himself before the mob noticed him. There are so many mechanics 8n Ladipo market that can help with that for cheap.

3. After hiding in his friend's shop and seeing the mob, he ran to his car and drove off. Isnt that the same car that had issues that he went to get parts for?

The story doesnt even add up. Probably seeking relevance cos elections are coming soon.

It's an affront on common sense if Pastor Enoch Adeboye denies not participating in the protest against insecurity in Nigeria.

The videos are all over YouTube and other SM platforms.

President Goodluck Jonathan talks to Nigerian Christians at the 13th Holy Ghost Congress of The Redeemed Christian Church of God.

2012 Dec 17
Years after his first visit, President Goodluck Jonathan on Friday night worshiped with thousands at the 15th edition of the Holy Ghost Congress organized by the Redeemed Christian Church of God, at the Redemption Camp, along the Lagos Ibadan expressway.

Speaking at the programme, Dr Jonathan once again assured Nigerians of tackling the challenges facing the country, explaining that his administration is doing the right thing to improve on the challenges that the country currently is facing.

In his address to the congregation, the president admitted that the nation's power sector and security are not impressive as they are, but he gave the assurance that his administration is putting the right structures in place to enhance an appropriate reform.

2014 Feb 16
The Nigerian President, Goodluck Jonathan, on Sunday called on Christian faithful to pray for the peace of the nation.

He made the call while worshiping at the Olive Tree Parish of The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Banana Island, Ikoyi Lagos, alongside the General Overseer of the Church, Enoch Adeboye.

The things we find! I don't expect Pastor Adeboye to endorse ANYBODY, but, as endorsements go, you can't get one better than this one he gave Prof. Osinbajo last year. In front of Mr. President as well! God moves mysteriously...

2015 Jan 5
The Vice Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (ACP), Professor Yemi Osinbajo, has expressed optimism that his party, if given an opportunity to govern Nigeria, would bring the needed change at a period that "the entire nation is tired of the state of things".

Professor Osinbajo, who is also a pastor, said that the state of the nation had presented the APC with a chance that had never been, saying "it is the best that has ever been".

Giving his political aspirations, his party's manifesto and how it would be achieved, the Professor said that there was no difference in the roles that he played as a pastor, professor and politician.

"The reason I function as a pastor is essentially because I want to touch the lives of as many people as possible with the love of Jesus Christ and we must, in every situation we find ourselves, be able to help the poor, be able to help those who can't help themselves and stand up for justice.

"I will do same as a political leader. All of these roles must be played in the same way and with the same motivation. As far as I am concerned, it is all the same," he said.

There have been claims that the presidential candidate of the APC, General Muhammadu Buhari, is a religious fundamentalist, but Professor Osinbajo dismissed the assertions, saying that "General Buhari is a very credible individual that does what he says".

2015 Feb 8
The President was last night at the monthly holy ghost service of the Redeemed Christian Church of God at the Redemption camp in Lagos where he urged Nigerians to pray for hitch free general elections and for peace to reign in Nigeria.

General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Enoch Adeboye, on Sunday, led members of his church in a prayer walk against insecurity in Nigeria.

The call for restructuring is getting louder with the Redeemed Christian Church of God, general overseer, Pastor Enoch ADEBOYE, analysts say, it may just be the panacea for the secession calls.
