Hello!


 Welcome to "Surviving The African Parent"!

 I am ecstatic you decided to visit my blog. To celebrate its launch, there are three posts present on each page. However, from next week, expect a post on each page per week. Expect new updates every Wednesday by 12 A.M. West African Time. I encourage you to comment and air your views- I hope my blog can also serve as an outlet to all African teens that visit it. Unfortunately, I may not be able to respond to all comments at the appropriate time- or at all- because I attend boarding school and spend approximately nine out of twelve months there. Despite this though, my posts will always come in at the aforementioned time. 

At the end of each month, there will be a 'Tip for teens' and a 'Tip for parents' (should any decide to visit). Please do not be deterred from airing your views by the possible presence of parents, if they are here, it means they are eager to alleviate their relationship with their teen, so your comments will be helpful. 

Enjoy!

The Copy Machine

  A big thank you to the lady who told me this story. She gave me a new view on babies thanks to an intriguing conversation. My little brother reached the stage that he copied everything that everyone said. As a result we were really, really, really careful. We once said poop in his presence and that comprised the majority of his vocabulary for one week! Back to the story. My mom always carried my brother with her to greet my dad whenever he came home from work. She always said "Welcome home honey" One day, as my dad came home, my brother broke free from my sister and I and ran up to our dad yelling "Honey! Honey! Honey!" at the top of his lungs. We were shocked. My mom was worried. My dad look faintly disturbed. How were we going to wean him off this?

The Sleepover Story

  'Mom, dad, can I sleepover at my friend's house next week?' 'Sleep-what? You can be with them all day, why do you need to sleep in their house? Why can't they come here?...' A lot more questions follow that. From the experience of teens, more often than not, parents believe that you should play out all day and come back to your house to sleep. It's not a bad philosophy.  You don't really lose out of not sleeping over at your friend's house. A huge pro is, when you are older, hopefully, you'll sleep in your own house most of the time, which is a great way to remain safe.
