A day school is the better option, in my opinion.

There are no advantages a boarding school has that a day school doesn't, and a day school has the only privilege of proximity over the other.

It is a school, a place of learning formally; it's not a place meant to take over the responsibility and role of parents in a child's life. Everything they can potentially learn in a boarding school can be learnt in a day school. A child who is prone to being a sloth or anything of the like would be one over in a boarding school, with much less supervision. The kids who turned out fine and well-adjusted would likely still have turned out the same way they did in the day school. I don't believe the boarding school is much if a 'defining factor' there.

Teenagehood is one of the most confusing, tumultuous and overwhelming period of person's life, and this doesn't even have anything to do with external factors yet. The very experience of going through adolescence can be daunting. Changing body, new feelings about oneself, peer pressure, deciding which values to pick and adapt to - all of these become much easier to work through with the guidance of good and present parents. Sending almost adolescent children off away like that, when they've barely formed their own personality and ideals, with empty "know the kind of house you came from" onishment doesn't really sit well with me. You'd have no idea of the kind of company they're keeping, and habits they are forming. Things that you can easily pick up and notice and correct about them when they are at home everyday. You will have the choice and authority to raise them the best way possible. Give them responsible tasks to carry out. Help them learn to be kind and cooperative with their siblings. Spend quality family time together. Take them out on weekend. Anything.


The university is still there for them to learn all the independence and self-sufficiency they need to learn. But they'll go to a boarding school, come back home for a while and off to college again.

Where is the time to know them? Where is the time to bond?


I mean, it's one thing to look at the "logical" benefits of boarding school- more time for the parents to attend to work and other duties outside the home, and the child figuring out the world on their own, but personally, for the child, are those worth the emotional neglect and psychological effects?

Children deserve 100% commitment until they are ready to be their own person, but until then, they shouldn't be treated like accessories.

I would help a policewoman.

Core childhood memories. When life was still simple before T-pain came like a thief in the night and stole people's joy.

Seems like there is no place for childlike happiness for an adult man.

You should have a 'Peter Pan' friend to counteract that .


Nothing beats a childlike wonder and worldview. And one is not even necessarily exclusive of the other in my opinion- you can be largely responsible for yourself and engage in and enjoy things that make your inner child happy.

Their headaches.


All I sha know is that Peter Obi will never be president.

Mtcheeeewwwwewwwwwwwwwwwww.

So much.

Even looks like Sanwo-olu himself.

The world is buried under western hegemony, hence we dont see all this beautiful tech in everyday life. I follow the development of China very closely, and I can see how their cities and way of life is way more futuristic than the west.

Hm. I see. Maybe this explains why I didn't see any source for that news in any Western media outlet. Like it's a huge deal! I couldn't believe it wasn't trending, and kept scrolling and scrolling on Google search pages hoping I'll see one US scientific or technological website post about it. And I was actually beginning to doubt that such surgery took place since I could not find it on any big media outlet, and was about to dismiss it as an unverified news, until I found that video and saw with my eyes and heard with my ears.

Most Nigerians still see the west as the best place after heaven, but lots of places outside west are more heavenly.

Let China sleep, for when she awakes, the world will tremble - Napoleon

Interesting. While one country is a sleeping giant, another is a crippled giant. 😭🤣

All these body and soul destructive jobs are where AI comes into into play.

AI can be integrated with industrial machines and robotics to do these jobs so humans can enjoy life.

Few days ago, China built an over 150km roads using 100% machines without human physical intervention. Our world should progress to that phase.

This would interest you. (This is me assuming you don't even know about it already lol).

A Chinese doctor, all the way in Rome, performed a 'robotic surgery' on a cancer patient in Beijing.


It's mind-blowing.

We don't connect, we are two different people. It's a good bye from this end and we don't have to go back and forth on this. Best of luck in your life endeavors and please don't bug my phone.

This is more than harsh na lol.

It's giving low vibrational energy.
