Dear parents,
Stop turning your child(ren) to gossippers. Stop being inclined to listen to their gossips to you and stop gossiping to them. You are ruining them!

Too Late.... social media is a gossip world... and parents who are active on social media can not help it.

Too bad. You need to hear what children talk about these days!

How I grew up....You dare not speak behind anybody...If caught, you will be severely punished ...


I grew up knowing nothing about back-talks..... You dare not mention someone's name when they're not within or around.....



But, kids these days, will gossip you to your clothes and shoes to how you walk and talk....

No bi lie.

If I don't gossip (talk) with my kids then tell me who do I then gossip with.... The only thing is for them to know their limits.

Depends on what u call gossip.

Children are the main gossipers here cos they will tell you about all that happened in their class, each person and it's your duty to listen and correct when it's needed.

When pops is not around the kids come next but we should be guided what we discuss with our kids.

So what you are saying is that the 'gossip' must always be there either with pop or sb else? Must one gossip another?

To them, they are reporting. Choosing what to listen and act upon depends on you.

It's wrong outright to discuss another person with your kids (even if it's their sibling).

It depends on what you call 'gossip'. So we should sit down in our house and be staring at each other isu ni'su?

There are a thousand things to talk about. In mine, we'd discuss about school, about goals (most times, theocratic goals). Kids wouldn't even hear wife and I discuss negatively about anyone. Zero tolerance too to side talks or speaking at people's back (except of course it's praising them). You can be a perfect mom.

Do you have kids?

Tell them, i so much hate that act. Instead of you to discuss ideas, latest inventions et al na gossip your life centre on.

It's private. My social life is different from reality.

Where did you get the 'perfect mother' spin? Only someone who doesn't have kids will say a person can be a perfect mother.

I get your drift. 'Perfect' there means in line to the discourse of gossip and not being everything a mother should be. I sincerely understand you.
