  11. Yea people may not understand but the ripple effect it would have on the girl"s performance would pay at the long run... Parents and caregivers must understand the effect of motivation on a child. Wish her all the best for the future.

    1. Exactly!! Don't mind all the idiotic hypocrite calling the girl and people olodo.its the same way year on year u fail God's test yet heaven still encourages you that your future will be still be bright. ANYONE HERE LAUGHING AT THIS FAMILY or calling them names will reap what they have sown.

      Delete
  12. Well they are trying to show appreciation in little..challenging God and believing that the next result would be totally wonderful ..i join my faith with yours and pray for the wisdom from above for your child in Jesus name. Luke 2:52 @Bishop_Dammy

    1. Amen, it will get better for the girl. See how they appreciate God for the very little step up, but nigerians even God cannot please them, see them calling the family names.

  20. I don't find this funny. I knw my lil sisters former class mate who suffers from down syndrome and repeats every class twice or thrice, and each tym there is little improvement in her result, the parents buy her gifts etc in order to encourage the poor girl. Most of us wt normal, healthy intelligent kids will not really grasp wat some parents of kids with disorders go thru.

  59. A psycological encouragement philosophy in the form of rewarding every good performance. Perhaps the ward would put in better performance in expectation of bigger party as incentives. Thumb up for the family this time. Better than scolding or caning

  86. i think that will encourage the child to buckle up and work more harder. whenever the child remembers the joy and gifts awaiting her at the end of a term

    ReplyDelete
  87. The Parents are so loving, to keep encouraging their daughter regardless of her not doing so well in school. Sometimes when people start slowly, they tend to be great in life. I can relate myself to this story, because In my early days in school i used to under achieve, but i motivated myself a lot and now am very successful and highly knowledgable. Please parents and guardians encourage & motivate your young ones.. Linda it sounds funny, but we should not be sarcastic about it, cos every child is different.
