RomanceCan This Over-hyping Of Female Butt Size Ever Lose Its Potency/popularity??? by teeghurl(op):
In time past, female's butt size does not have too much popularity and men were not so crazy about it like nowadays. Most men don't regard female with naturally flat or moderate-sized bum as an attractive lady but they prefer the ones with "Mt. Everest kinda-like bum"
This has trampled on some ladies' self-esteem and that's why we see most ladies spending huge amount of money on butt implants, butt pads and any other means just to have big butts. As human beings that we are, we are never satisfied, we move from one point of attraction to another. Abeg, what's gonna happen if men's sense of attraction shifts from 'UKWU' to another thing in female and they start seeing fake/huge butt as 'OLD SCHOOL'. Besides, can this over-hyping ever come down?

NB; Ain't hating on anyone o. please drop reasonable comment and let's have fun. Cheers grin grin

FamilyRe: African Parents In Diaspora: How Do You Raise Your Children In African Way? by teeghurl(op):
Thank you all for your beautiful contributions, I believe we r all learning from this. Thanks to the good parents here. Brutality, spanking, corporal punishment r not limited to Africans, it happens everywhr but when people hear of African way, the first thing that comes to their mind are all these. Africans still correct their children with Love too, I'm not saying African way is necessarily the Best way, I said it's one of the BEST. I don't expect you to agree with my POVs, that's why we r here to interact and learn from each other. No one is here to judge anyone as per how you raise your child. I believe so many single ladies n men r viewing this topic to learn more from the people with experience. The crux of the matter is 'how do you raise your child in a way that will bring glory to you @ d end of the day in that settings you are?. Will your children be able to stand on their feet wherever they find themselves? Will they be able to look back and say 'Thank You Mum and Dad for raising us well'. Do you have the time for them? Sirshymex, that's a wonderful contribution. Thanks

Soooo if I get you right.. African way is the ONLY Right way? undecided My kids for example are only African in their schools, we don't attend Nigerian church, NO SINGLE NIGERIAN in their extra curricular activities(skating/hockeyetc) ... ETC...SO does that mean they'll lack manners and not do well??

I thought you're here to learn from diasporean parents and not attack people's POVs but Seem you have an agenda...Not worth my time abeg. I'll rather watch grin
thanks for your contribution ma'am and that i said something contrary to your POVs doesn't mean i'm attacking anyone. if you read the post well you'll see whr i wrote african way is ONE of the best ways. tnx again smiley

FamilyRe: African Parents In Diaspora: How Do You Raise Your Children In African Way? by teeghurl(op): 7:41pm On Jan 07, 2015
mutter:
Lousy parents in diaspora would also have been lousy parents at home.

When you have african friends, belong to an african community and possibly attend an African church or mosque your children get exposed to their culture and tradition.

As regards the upbringing that depends on the parents.
Training a child starts virtually from the day it is born. Children need love, encouragement and also boundaries.

When I compare my kid`s that I raised out of Nigeria I must say I am very pleased with the result. Not just academically but also behavior wise. I did not do it the African or the European way but our way. Each child is different and needs to be treated as an individual first. I want my children to understand why they have to do or omit doing something and not just do it because I said so. I want my kid`s to be able to confide in me, no matter what they did.
There are some aspects about the african way that need to be changed.
the question is: how many parents deem it fit or have the time to discharge their duties to these children just like you(as you claimed)
FamilyRe: African Parents In Diaspora: How Do You Raise Your Children In African Way? by teeghurl(op): 7:16pm On Jan 07, 2015
2CatWoman:
A lot of African parents put most emphasis on getting good grades and not answering back to them over everything else. Culture is at the bottom of the list. Few diasporian raised kids speak the native language or know much about their ethnic heritage, some don't even carry native names. Good manners should be a universal thing.
fabulous, seems we r on the same line
FamilyRe: African Parents In Diaspora: How Do You Raise Your Children In African Way? by teeghurl(op): 6:58pm On Jan 07, 2015
Ewuro4:
What do you mean "African way"... Are they in Africa?

Brb to share an experience/ observations ...
So because they are not in Africa, they should throw away their manners and culture. They should forget their origin?

BABE3:
Kids and technology these days. grin Tablets are the new pacifiers.

You enter a home with a 5 yr old kid and you expect him to say "Good afternoon aunty BABE3". But mba, all their focus is on that ipad. They don't even notice when you come and leave.

...or instead of greeting you, first thing they say is "aunty do you have games on your phone? "..

Wtf? grin who are the jokes raising these kids...
lol, they defend their actions by telling you African way is too harsh but even the western way which is "Very good" they still don't have the time. Who's decieving who here? huh
FamilyRe: African Parents In Diaspora: How Do You Raise Your Children In African Way? by teeghurl(op): 4:59pm On Jan 07, 2015
2CatWoman:
In my opinion a lot of Nigerian parents in the diaspora don't actually raise their children. The eldest child who could be as young as 8 years is left in charge at home while the younger kids are babysat by Messers 50Cent and SnoopDawg (or other bad TV influences).

Then when the kids start acting up at around 11 or 12 years, only then does dad decide to send them home for their "African training", something which should have taken place from birth.
how many of these so-called parents have the time to bring their children up in even western ways nt to talk of african ways. Most of them are busy chasing after money, bills must be paid thereby leaving their responsibilities to these kids' peer groups and technology
