Popular Nollywood actress Esther Ene has taken to her social media to share some essential human values that parents should teach their children before school resumption.
The 42-year-old actress, in a lengthy post via her Instagram page, admonished parents to teach the correct values to their kids.
Listing some of the values, the actress explained that parents should teach their kids that there’s nothing wrong with wearing the same shoes or clothes daily.
She said it is okay for a parent to teach their kids about bullying and how much it can hurt another human, adding that by all means, the spread of negativity should be shunned.
She ended her message by saying it all begins at home.
Her post reads, “School is almost starting and some started already. I want to ask you a favour… Sit with your child /children for 5 minutes and explain that there’s never a reason to make fun of anyone for their height, their weight, their skin tone, their accent, their home life or, the things they enjoy or even how their performance in school is.
“Explain to them that there’s nothing wrong with wearing the same shoes or wearing one cloth every day.
“Explain to them that a used backpack carries the same dreams as a new one.Teach them not to exclude anyone for “being different.”
“Explain to them that teasing and b****ying hurts and that school is for going to LEARN, NOT to compete or spread negativity. Remind them some kids don’t go home to loving families so it’s important to be kind at all times.
“It all starts at home!”.
