Welcome to my world. An altered state of reality in which I sometimes feel as if I am the only one experiencing issues and situations that are ridiculous, funny, frustrating and thought provoking.
It is often said that ‘if a child does not learn, a teacher did not teach’, and while some may take umbrage at this sentiment, there are many teachers who wished that parents would teach their children a thing or two before unleashing them on the wider society.
Dear parents, before you unleash your little hellions on the wider society, especially the poor teachers in the classroom (whether basic, primary or high school), here are a few things they wish you would seriously consider before turning them loose.
We nuh haffi grow wid we granny (like I did) to have heard certain things as children that would totally baffle us at times. Even when we sat quietly and analysed them, they actually made not a drop of sense!
