Thee High Societea (Episode 6): Nigerian Mothers Then vs Now.

In this episode of High Societea, in honor of Mother's Day the hosts dive into mothering. The hosts discuss disciplining children, comparing Nigerian mothers “then” versus Nigerian mothers “now,” including differences in attitudes toward mental health, school, corporal punishment, and how parenting has shifted toward more conversations, timeouts, and balance. One host shares experiences of strict discipline and public punishment in Nigerian boarding school and leaving home at 11. For “this week’s tea,” they talk about a man who allegedly burned down a Scott tissue warehouse over living wages and now faces serious jail time, leading to an unpopular take that workers should be paid what they deserve.
