The End
Mr. Okafor’s message to parents:
“To all parents, I urge you to be mindful of the way you treat your children. Avoid comparing them to others or to each other, as this can create unnecessary rivalry and resentment. Instead, love and appreciate them for their unique strengths and talents. Don’t use one child’s weakness against them, but rather offer support and guidance to help them grow.
And when it comes to marriage, be cautious and do your due diligence. Conduct thorough background checks on any potential suitors for your sons and daughters. Remember, you are entrusting your child’s future to this person, so it’s crucial to know who they are and what they stand for.
Let us learn from my(Mr.okafor) mistakes and strive to be better parents. Let us create a supportive and loving environment for our children to thrive in. Together, we can build a brighter future for our children and our families.”
