African discipline is inarguably tutorous,
By instinct the first correction a misbehaving child gets is a WHOP.
It could be by the slippers, belt or even a spoon, all our parents know is, a screw has been loosed and needs to be tightened so that you can function properly again. Lol, the good old day

Let me amuse you with one of my experience,
I was seven then, restless and sleep denying, unfortunately my stomach joined in.
It was late, didn't have time to check the clock, my mission was a go
I stood up from bed, off to the only food I knew wasn't sealed, the Pot of Soup.
like Tom Cruise I tip toed target acquired, pot found all that remained was to open and dip in.
Before my smart brain could process the smartest steps for the theft
Koom!! My Head....
At that moment my entire 7 years of existence flashed before me, alongside the milky way, I could have sworn I discovered a new planet that day.
It seemed before I could execute my mission, Mum had already spotted and known my intentions, waiting for just the right moment to literally restart my thinking.
Well, she succeeded, I didn't near the pot for another 2 months...
Ohh.. boy you should have seen my face.
A failed mission, how do I tell Tom Cruise, his prodigy was caught by an African Mom.
