My children are all grown up now and have made discoveries like you did, that all the white lies I told them in the past... were actually lies.😁

Like, "Ojuju Calabar (Calabar masquerade) will carry you in the night, if you talk back at me or your elders", I tell you this one made them very submissive and you needed to see how they would be on their knees apologizing if they as much as went against my rules... 🤣

But it helped me keep them in check sha, I no lie you.
