She came complaining to me.
Madam: So somebody can not have peace again! Somebody cannot drink and keep the cup in peace! What is all this nah?
Me: Please can you explain better because I don't understand a thing from what you said.
Madam: She's always watching my mouth when I talk to find fault. So I look like an illiterate to her. See, I'm a graduate and someone cannot tell me what to say or how to say it. She is becoming something else, I did not say she should not learn but let her keep it to herself, ah this is too much!
That was when I realized she was talking about her daughter( my learner ) I busted into laughter.
Madam: I know you will laugh, see this thing is entering her brain, small thing she will tell you that word is incorrect, try to pronounce your words correctly. Ah! I'm I her mate? She will not even correct with respect. She will be like "Mum that word is wronggggg now pay attention let me teach you"!
Me: laughing hard. I thought it was something serious.
Parents/guardians, please let's encourage our children to implement what they are learning. Laughing or making jest of them will only discourage them to do better.
As a parent or guardian, have you had such an experience?
That was how I laughed when I remember that incident.👇

I posted same content on my FB wall.
It's a nice thing to encourage little children,the child is learning well by implementing what she learnt. Just that the mom is not feeling too well with the approach.
Exactly. She needs to have a positive attitude towards her child.
Yes my dear
