Child's name, origin and determinant

Image
  A CHILD IS BORN According to the tradition of every family from ages, When a child is born the next thing that  happens in his or her Life is a celebration that a new creature has entered the earth and at this point a name will be given to the child. But the name which is given to this child may be determined by the society at large or by direct members of the family of the new born baby or even by the Parents alone. According to the understanding we have about every name. It is widely accepted that one’s name is predicated upon his/her future. These may be true because the meaning and origin of a name has to connect us with the life experiences that our people, parents or society had suffered or benefitted from before our emergence on earth.

  Schools and running costs   Schools in Nigeria are owned either by government (public)  or individuals (private), the public was known to be less costly because of the government involvement in the management and running of the school both the primary and secondary schools.

Child bearing and shape in marriage

Image
 I was watching a movie today titled "homeless home"  and there was this lady that destroyed her home and marriage because she doesn't want to get pregnant and loose her shape so that her husband will always see her attractive. I have been wondering what exactly a lady will be doing in marriage if she doesn't want to bear a child for her husband and this scenario has left me in the verge of asking is it wise for someone to venture into marriage if she or he doesn't want to bear children?  Can a man truly love a woman who truly does not want to give him a child because she is trying to keep her shape for him? I am yet to figure out what youths of nowadays see marriage as regards to what is happening in the world today I am afraid to say that marriage will be very bad. Divorce is everywhere, husband's and wife cheating every day even the unmarried young women intentionally and proudly date married men. The only thing that matters to them is the pleasure of the t...
