A Nigerian teacher described her interaction with a student who refused to eat in class.
The teacher, identified as @hayzed0709 on X, tweeted that she asked the boy why he was not eating.
He said the food served by his mother was not excellent, while the maid who serves delicious meals has yet to return from Christmas break.
However, when the boy’s mother arrived to pick him up, the teacher respectfully informed her about his unwillingness to eat in class. When his mother asked why, he admitted that only their maid cooks great meals.
In a tweet with over 1.3 million views, a teacher stated that in her school, failing to report a child who refuses to eat results in a penalty.
Read her tweet below;
So a child in my class brought food to school today but didn’t touch it.I asked why, and he said their house help hasn’t returned from Christmas break.
Now, in my school, if a child doesn’t eat and you don’t report it or inform the parent through the communication book, you’ll be penalized. The funny part? This particular parent never opens the communication book.
I still wrote it there and, when she came to pick him up, I politely stepped aside with her and said, “Good afternoon ma’am, your child didn’t eat his food today. I don’t know why.” I pretended like he hadn’t told me anything.Only for her to turn to the boy and ask,
Why didn’t you eat your food?. And this boy confidently replied, “It’s not sweet now. Shebi it’s only aunty Mercy that knows how to cook very well.
