4 Interesting Things you Wish Parents Allowed You do When You Were Young
Growing
up with Nigerian parents is always exciting. You may not like their
style of discipline but when you eventually age, you will definitely
appreciate their efforts. Despite this, some people wish they could turn
back the hands of time to engage in certain activities which their
parents denied them when they were young. This may be partly because
said parents were very strict and dealt unsympathetically with
inappropriate and antisocial behaviour.
In this regard, Jovago.com, Africa’s No.1 hotel booking portal rounds up 4 things you probably wish your parents allowed you to do when you were young. Enjoy!
Attend your friend’s birthday party
Birthday
parties were out of bounds for some young urns! And no matter how hard
kids tried to convince their parents or guardians, all plea fell on deaf
ears. If you recall the birthday parties you may have missed, as you
grow older you may begin to question why your parents didn’t allow you
to go to these parties in the first place.
Bring your girlfriend home
Perhaps,
some parents may overlook this today but, when most current adults were
young, they dared not bring a girl home. In fact, when they thought of
the consequence of your parents ordinarily seeing them with a girl, the
fear alone spelled trouble.
Stay out till midnight
Remember
wanting to hang out with friends downing bottles of different alcoholic
beverages but because your parents had set a curfew for you to return
home, you had no choice than to leave. If you dared miss this deadline, a
heavy punishment, usually from your mother followed suit. Such fond
memories may bring laughter at the moment but it felt like pain at the
time.
Eat as much as you can at any event
If you reside in Lagos, you already know that people in this cosmopolitan city love to party. Hence, every weekend, there is an owambe happening in one corner of town. If
you attended the party with your parents back in the day, your
intention may have been to eat everything and anything that was being
served. But this was usually an impossible feat because your mother’s
piercing gaze will set you off with sweaty palms as she expects you to
put your greed in check. If you ignore her and eat like a glutton, you
will face her wrath as she will not hesitate to tongue-lash you when you
arrive home. And many people prefer to be flogged rather than their
parents chastising them
