Indeed this life isn't balanced. Imagine a lawmaker breaking his own law. That's what type of African Parents.
Those who grew up in the same continent as I would agree with me that the greater majority of our African Parents are PRO LIERS who lie to get their kids to say the truth.
Imagine an African mother telling you that "If you tell me the truth I won't beat you" but end up beating heaven and hell out you for saying the truth.
You are right
Now I hate myself for falling for their scam lines.
If many could turn back the hands of time I'm sure many would go back in time to undo themselves falling for the scam phrase that got them flogged.
