I met him as a new learner in Jss2, he just came into our school few days ago!
The head teacher called a brief meeting to say 'the new student here was brought in with the tag, he knows nothing, hence i want you to teach him like he really knows nothing is that okay?'
Yes Sir, we all echoed in Uniform and left the office.

I went to J.s.s. 2 to have a brief talk with the child who was said to know nothing to gather a brief information about him and of course the home he is coming from.
Name witheld said: My Mother is a Banker and my Father a Business Man, I have no parental care, i was very intelligent at elementary school. I started failing in my 2nd term at Junior secondary school 1, when It became dawn on me that i needed to draw the attention of my parent away from work a little to myself.
It gave them a huge concern when i didn't do well in school but i was shocked they could still neglect me and not show concern. The only concerned my Dad showed was to take me to a more expensive school thinking my former school has fallen below standard. That's why i was brought to this school Ma.
Oh really!
This was really not the best option for the parents of this child!

Wives, mothers, women, lets take a look at how we feel when our husbands, fiance, begins to show us less attention?
Husbands, fathers, men: lets imagine how we feel when the attention of your wife is no longer on you often times when children sets into the marriage!
If adults feels so bad about been denied attention, how much more a child?

Here is what we are saying!
Not performing up to expectations in school work has a lot to do with the interest of a parent in the academics of the child.
I stand to be corrected: go to schools and ask of the performance of children whose parent takes cautious effort to be part of their growth in school, such kids are either the high fliers or really doing their best to become better because they know their parents are expectant.
Unlike the children who knows that their parents do not care. The only time we see some parents in school is when they come to clear the bills and pick up the receipt and they really do not have any business with the class teacher or head of school, their business is with the finance department.

I am not saying that the total failure of a child should be blame on the parent yet i am not saying it shouldn't be blame on them.
What i am saying is Parents should be actively involve in the school activities of a child. It is important.

Our children should be our priority. And we should understand that adults can even manage lack of attention for a while, better than the children, they should be more important than our jobs, cars, house and even money itself...they are our future.
