When you refuse to apologize to a child, you’re unintentionally teaching them that you are always right and that saying “sorry” is a sign of weakness. But children learn by watching you. If you never apologize, they grow up believing apologies don’t matter especially to you. As they get older and become exposed to the “magic words” of courtesy; sorry, please, excuse me, thank you, pardon me, they start to see the contradiction. That’s when some children begin to look you straight in the face without saying “sorry,” no matter how much you expect it. And that’s where the frustration begins. When children realize you demand what you don’t model, you lose moral authority. Eventually you’ll find yourself negotiating basic respect from them, simply because the foundation wasn’t laid early. So yes, children deserve apologies and explanations. Not because they are small, but because they are humans learning from you in real time. When you show humility, they mirror it. When you normalize apologies, they grow into adults who can own their mistakes.
Do you think children deserve apologies and explanations?

1.5 million housing units (attempting). They also just delivered on a single 5,150 MW power plant and added all of it to their grid. Mind you, they have significantly lower fiscal space than Nigeria: Ethiopia earned $21.3 billion in 2025 while Nigeria earned $76.6 billion.

₦100,000 put into these US companies in November 2016 would be worth this today: Nvidia: ₦33.7m Tesla: ₦14.1m Apple: ₦5.84m Microsoft: ₦3.95m Alphabet (Google): ₦3.45m Costco: ₦3.26m Amazon: ₦3.23m Netflix: ₦2.43m Meta: ₦2.34m Visa: ₦2.29m S&P 500 fund (VOO): ₦1.56m Coca-Cola: ₦1.06m Naira kept as naira: ₦100,000 The official rate then was ₦304.75 to the dollar, so ₦100k was about $328. On Thursday it closed at ₦1,358.50. That's share prices only, dividends not even counted. Ten years ago buying a US share from Lagos meant a foreign broker and a dom account. Now I buy mine from my phone on @hisanigeria. Coca-Cola, the slowest name on this list, still turned ₦100k into over ₦1m. More of that came from the naira falling than from Coke rising.

FG Reopens Free CAC Registration Portal for 250,000 Businesses: How to Apply Read more: legit.ng/business-economy/ec… Applicants should follow these steps: 1. Visit the official SMEDAN portal portal.smedan.gov.ng/ 2. Create an account using the required personal information or log in to an existing account. 3. Complete the MSME profile by providing accurate business details. 4. Select "No" when asked whether the business has an existing CAC registration number, provided it is not registered. 5. Review the information carefully before submitting the application. Business owners who previously created accounts are advised to continue their applications rather than open duplicate profiles. Applicants should also ensure that their contact information is accurate to avoid missing important communication from the agency. SMEDAN warns applicants against unnecessary payments One major attraction of the programme is that successful beneficiaries will not be required to pay the covered CAC business name registration fees. Entrepreneurs should therefore be cautious of individuals or intermediaries demanding money to secure registration slots or guarantee approval. Importantly, submitting an application does not automatically guarantee selection. Applicants must satisfy the programme's requirements, while SMEDAN is expected to communicate subsequent steps to eligible participants. Read more: legit.ng/business-economy/ec…

i refuse to live on autopilot. i want to experience life consciously, question what i have been taught and remain curious about things i do not yet understand. i give myself permission to change my mind when new information challenges what i once believed. i do not consider admitting ignorance a weakness and i will never allow pride to become a barrier to learning. today will be a good day. i affirm 🌱

Here are 4 interesting things you should know about sperm and semen; 1. Semen can contain millions of sperm. A single ejaculation can contain tens or hundreds of millions of sperm cells, although the number varies considerably. 2. Semen doesn't always contain sperm. A man can ejaculate semen without sperm cells being present. This is called azoospermia when it is due to absent sperm in the ejaculate. It can happen for different medical reasons. 3. Sperm and semen are not the same as sexual pleasure. Ejaculation is the release of semen, while orgasm is the pleasurable sensation associated with sexual climax. They often happen together, but they are separate processes. 4. You cannot determine sperm quality by looking at semen. Semen can look perfectly normal while sperm count, movement or shape may be abnormal. A laboratory semen analysis is needed to assess these factors. The easiest way to remember Sperm = The reproductive cells. Semen = The fluid that carries those cells. Just like passengers and the vehicle transporting them. Same journey, different things! And one important takeaway: Pregnancy happens when a sperm cell fertilises an egg, not because semen itself fertilises the egg. Biology is fascinating when you break it down, isn't it?
Sperm contains lot of nutrients, its has all 8 classes of food. As a woman make sure you recieve sperm in your body, stop running away from pregnacy, sperm is different from semen. Sperm will make you fresh and all.

He sacked José Mourinho He sacked Ole Gunnar Solskjær He sacked Ralf Rangnick He sacked Erik ten Hag He sacked Ruud van Nistelrooy He sacked Ruben Amorim Now he’s sacked Michael Carrick Manchester United are too blind to see the cancer of a player in their squad. Don’t matter if Pochettino is here. He’ll still be sacked as long as that guy is in the squad.
