Tommy34: Sadly in this part of the world failure is seen as too negative and it is bad. Great things have been born out of failure bt the negative mindset people tag with failure has driven alot of people downhill. 1stly never lie to urself and 2nd to ur parents especially when they sponsor u. Say the truth early and let it be dealt with. U may seem like the black sheep doesn't mean u can't or shudnt succeed bt that can only happen when do the right things and carefully make the right decisions. I personally prefer to burst the lie Now and deal with all the consequences, the sky won't fall, start afresh and clean bt if u can't do that then u must have or make a perfect plan along with sm1 close like a family relative or dependable frnd and work at achieving ur goal in a clean as possible way. Ur already in a mess don't get into more mess. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Tommy34:Guy, you have erred already as a human being. But with Supreme Divine mercies, you will be forgiven. My advice: Do not run away. Tell your parents the Truth and the reasons behind the Lies. At first, they will be mad at you. But on second Thought, they will give you another second chance. Remain blessed 1 Like |

go back home and explain to your parents in details. secondly, stop lying and speak the truth always. thirdly, discover your passion and pursue it .successful people are passionate about what they do in life. if you want to go to school, try else where .all the best |

You remind me of my own very ordeal as the exact same nearly happened to me. What usually prompt people into such ignoble actions is the social pressure of measuring up. At certain age if you've not gained admission into higher institution of learning, the stigma, especially from over expectant parents could be unbearable. It is even worse when friends and relatives who are your contemporaries have been admitted to schools. What you need to do is tell your parents what had happened and set out a target for yourself during the next round of admission. Read very hard and don't permit any distraction. Also, pray harder. You can join a faith based church like "Winners" to buoy you up spiritually. Those were most of what I did and they worked for me. Today, I am a proud graduate of OAU! All the best. 1 Like |

It is very simple, first of all, do you want to study? If you do keep trying if you don't, go and learn farming. |

i understand ur frustration. Only that in this part of the world,most parents are engrossed and obsessed with the hype about going to school.. but they soon forget that the movers and shakers of this world are mostly school dropouts . Well,there's little you can do here than to be real Irrespective of the consequence. You only fail when you accept failure. |

I once read a story of an unlucky but determined fellow. he was the black sheep of the family too. he tried virtually everything but failed. even his younger ones graduated while he was trying jamb. then an Angel or demon whispered a plan to him, he lied to his parents that he got admission to study pharmacy. then went to the claimed school and look for one pharmacist for apprenticeship. he opened up to the man what his life has been like. so his parents pay his school fees for five years, including house rent, clothing, feeding and other things. his boss played his part by allowing the guy to pay visit to his parents during vacation and then resume when other students resumes. the boy at a point improved in his lies by telling his parents he has some after school jobs doing, so he don't spend most of his holidays at home as before. after five years while his mates were graduating, he invited his parents for induction just as many kids did but while his parents were expecting to be lead to the convocation hall, he lead them to the opening ceremony of his pharmaceutical shop. I read this story sometime in my third year and I can remember the argument in my class as many wish they saw it before then. hey bro if not that your parents have found you out, I would have recommended same. just be wise in what you tell your parents cause you and you alone knows them better us landers. |

We all make different types of mistakes at one point or the other in our lives, you shouldn't let yours push you down further. Muster up the courage, be a man, talk to ur parents, mum first. I knw you might be scared of being disowned as your dad threatened but telling more lies wil only worsen the matter. Apologise Wholeheartedly, tell them u didnt make d cut-off mark n was scared to let them knw, reason u lied at first. Let them knw you're really sorry that u'd turn a new leaf (and pls do). your parents only want d best 4 you since you'v earlier given them reasons 2 be tagged "the black sheep" of the family.Don't leave the house when u haven't been sent out. Also try on other skills you can lay ur hands upon. All the best young man |

Then you will regret it.Mark my word! Very unfortunate that people in this group might encouraging you to do so.They can tell you all sort of sweet words,but the consequence of your action shall be bear alone by you.Even,if your parents are not rich,you don't have any audacity to give them problem.
