Nigerian
mothers are special. This is because there are so many unique things
about them. One of which is the way they make conversation with their
children.
Rolling of the eyes
Your
mum has visitors. You do not need to be told to leave. However, some
kids stay to listen to their conversation. Trust mothers, the way they
will roll their eyes, it is a sign that you should leave. If you do not
get the signal and you are close to her, she will pinch you. By then, a
clear message has been sent! If you still refuse, you will definitely
receive a dirty slap from your mum after her visitors have left.
Hot slap
She
has been warning you to stop being naughty but you did not listen. She
said the same thing repeatedly and no changes. When she becomes
frustrated, the next thing is her five fingers on your cheek. That
should retune your brain temporarily.
Caning while sleeping
You
went to play football when you were supposed to deliver a message for
her or you lost money because you were too playful. You would think she
has forgiven you. But alas! She has not. In the night while you are
sleeping, she will come for you with her bare hands
Promise to buy them something just to getaway
A
child is crying and your mother is going to work, she will promise the
child sweets and biscuits. This is in a bid for her to getaway. Of
course, they will buy the sweets and biscuits for you when they return.
Food denial
If
your mum does not want to have a conversation with you through the
aforementioned, she will punish you by simply denying you food. The most
painful food denial is dinner. You have to go to bed empty.
The pep talk
This
is the real conversation and many consider this as the most
excruciating. The pep talk can go for over an hour. She tells you all
your life history and the need for you to accept God and change. You
will even give prefer them to flog you so that you can leave.
