INSIDE THE MIND OF A WOMAN GOING THROUGH MOTHERHOOD

Parents play a major role in shaping the lives of their children. They are expected to provide love, care, guidance, discipline, and support. However, when parents fail to carry out these responsibilities, it can have a negative impact on a child's growth and development.

One common failure of parents is the lack of attention and supervision. Some parents become so busy with work or personal matters that they do not spend enough time with their children. As a result, children may feel neglected and seek attention from the wrong people, which can expose them to bad habits and negative influences.

Poor communication is another parental failure. When parents do not listen to their children or create a friendly atmosphere at home, children may become withdrawn and unwilling to share their problems. This can lead to emotional stress and poor decision-making.

Some parents also fail to set good examples. Children often learn by observing the behaviour of adults around them. When parents engage in harmful behaviours such as drug abuse, violence, dishonesty, or excessive alcohol consumption, children may imitate these actions. Also, parents who stupidly shows their daughter the way to abortion thinking they are trying to protect her from giving birth to a child that has no father.

Lack of proper discipline can also affect a child's life. Children need guidance to distinguish between right and wrong. When parents are either too strict or too lenient, children may develop behavioural problems and struggle to make responsible choices. The effects of parental failure can include poor academic performance, low self-esteem, involvement in crime, drug abuse, and difficulty building healthy relationships. However, parents can reduce these risks by being actively involved in their children's lives, showing love and understanding, communicating openly, and serving as positive role models.

While no parent is perfect, making an intentional effort to support, guide, and nurture children can help them grow into responsible and successful adults. Parents should also know that, we have individual differences. The method used by Mr A to train up his/her child can't be used for yours.
I pray we all live long enough to witness the success of our children. Amen

AMEN!!!

TEACHER LIFE

We had our midterm CPD recently, and what was supposed to be a training session quickly turned into a call-out session.

After the speaker was done, the principal raised her hand and said: "Something happened last Friday that I still cannot understand." Apparently, a parent had called her on Saturday morning furious and raining insults claiming her 3 children had been left behind by the school bus and had to hitchhike, cross an expressway, and use their snack money to get to school.

Everyone in the hall gasped.

The driver admitted it. According to him, when he got to the estate gate, he met the children's mother on her way to work who told him they were getting ready and asked that the bus attendant go to her apartment to call them.

Instead, he sent two secondary school kids from the bus to call them, drove off to pick other children, came back, honked twice, didn't see them, left them and the secondary school kids he sent to call them. 

Five children were left behind.

His explanation?

"I gave them instructions and they disobeyed me. They had to learn a lesson."

A lesson? Five children? In this country?

What shocked everyone wasn't only what happened. It was the fact that he showed absolutely no remorse.

The more he spoke, the more convinced he became that he had done the right thing.

There and then, he was asked to hand over the bus keys and leave the school premises.

I don't think I've ever seen a room full of teachers agree on something so quickly.

I hope a better replacement has been found? Your school is lucky that nothing to the kids oh.......

NOTORIOUS FOR JESUS

My sister once had a boyfriend who also had a particular close friend. One day, she mentioned that the friend was looking for a girlfriend. Believing we might be a good match, she offered to introduce us. I agreed, and soon we started chatting on WhatsApp.

Our conversations were pleasant and filled with many beautiful exchanges. As the days passed, I looked forward to meeting him in person. The opportunity came sooner than expected.

My sister had traveled and left an item in her possession that belonged to her boyfriend. She asked me to hand it over to his friend when he came for it.

Knowing we would finally meet, I dressed as nicely as I could. I paid attention to every detail and hoped to make a good impression. When he arrived, our meeting was brief and informal.

The focus was on collecting the item, not on getting to know each other.

Still, we exchanged a few words and shared a few smiles. I found him quite attractive. There was something about him that I genuinely liked.

For a moment, I wondered if this introduction might become something meaningful. But after that day, everything changed. Our conversations became shorter and less frequent.

The excitement that once filled our chats slowly disappeared. I couldn't help thinking that perhaps he simply wasn't attracted to me.

Eventually, whatever possibility existed between us faded away completely. Years later, I look back on it with gratitude rather than regret.

My sister's relationship ended in marriage, but the marriage did not last, and since those two men were best friends, I sometimes wonder if I was quietly spared a similar heartbreak by a relationship that never had the chance to begin.

Hmmmmmm since he came over to your house, it must have been something he saw or sensed.....Anyhow you don't need him but sometimes eh closure is good so that you don't Judge ....Instead of assuming he is like your sisters ex, if you ever have the opportunity to run into him, please ask him what happened....

FROM THE COMMENT SECTION

My appeal is to those of you who have underaged children as househelps and maids. Please STOP IT.

It is evil to maltreat children. It is against the law too.

GOD frowns at it. I see well dressed “Christians” with well dressed children and a poorly dressed house help with rough clothes looking underfed. Which God are you serving sef. Hypocrisy.

It is shameful.

Please do better

Please next time post this inside Spontaneous post or in house news and not inside FAQ please...thanks.

THIS IS SO TRUE!!!!

There are people who lose interest in you once they become too familiar with you. While you were available, loving them consistently, sacrificing for them, trying to make things work, they treated you casually. Some even discarded you carelessly and moved on as though your presence in their life meant nothing.

But then something happens.

You heal.

You become emotionally stronger.

You begin to look better.

Your confidence returns.

Your life regains direction.

You stop begging for attention.

You move on peacefully.

Suddenly, they start “checking up on you.”

Do not always mistake renewed interest for maturity.

Sometimes, what they are reacting to is distance, scarcity, ego, curiosity, loneliness, or the shock that you survived without them.

There are people who are deeply attracted to what they cannot fully possess. Once they regain access and emotional control over you again, the excitement fades and the same cycle repeats itself. This is why some people keep appearing and disappearing throughout people’s lives like unstable seasons.

One of the most dangerous things you can do emotionally is to mistake temporary emotional hunger for genuine transformation.

Real change is not proven by “I miss you.”

It is proven by consistency.

By accountability.

By emotional stability.

By changed behavior over time.

A lot of people do not actually miss you. They miss the emotional security, attention, validation, comfort, loyalty, or access you gave them. There is a difference.

This is why healing requires wisdom, not just emotions. Because if you are not careful, loneliness and nostalgia can make you romanticize people who repeatedly disrupted your peace.

The older you grow, the more you realize that stability is underrated.

Some people are addicted to emotional movement. They do not know how to stay planted. They come close when emotions are high and disappear when familiarity returns. They enjoy the chase more than the responsibility of sustaining healthy love.

You must learn to pay attention to patterns, not just feelings.

Anybody can return.

Anybody can apologize.

Anybody can become temporarily emotional after seeing you doing well.

But not everybody has developed the emotional maturity required to remain consistent after re-entry.

Sometimes, the most mature thing you can do is to wish people well from a distance and refuse to reopen doors that previously brought confusion into your life.
