It's back to school

27/06/2026

Do you really know your child?

Not their favorite food.

Not their grades.

Not the school they attend.

Do you know your child?

Let me ask differently.

If I asked you who your child spends most of their time with, would you know?

If I asked you who influences them most, would you know?

If I asked you what content they consume when you are not around, would you know?

If I asked you what they are angry about, struggling with, hiding, fearing or becoming, would you know?

Because many parents know their children's report cards better than they know their children's hearts.

And that should concern us.

Somewhere along the way, parenting became heavily outsourced.

We outsourced it to schools.

To teachers.

To boarding schools.

To smartphones.

To social media.

To friends.

To the internet.

Then we occasionally check academic performance and assume everything else is okay.

It isn't always.

A child can be physically present and emotionally absent.

A child can be passing exams and quietly losing direction.

A child can be sleeping under your roof while slowly becoming a stranger.

And the dangerous thing about influence is that it rarely arrives with an announcement.

It arrives through company.

Through conversations.

Through repeated exposure.

Through the people your child admires.

Through the people they spend hours with when adults are not watching.

Most parents worry about what their children are doing.

Very few ask who they are becoming.

There is a difference.

Because character is contagious.

Attitudes are contagious.

Behaviors are contagious.

And eventually, the company a child keeps starts shaping the person they become.

This is not about becoming suspicious of your children.

It is about becoming present.

Have conversations beyond school fees and report forms.

Know their friends.

Know their struggles.

Know their dreams.

Know what frustrates them.

Know what excites them.

Know who they are listening to.

Because parenting is more than providing.

It is paying attention.

And sometimes the most important question a parent can ask is not:

"How are your grades?"

But:

"Who are you becoming when nobody is watching?"

Do you really know your child?

Or do you simply know their name, their school, and the version of them that appears when you are around?

Schools teach subjects, but homes teach character. And in today’s world, we are expecting teachers to perform miracles that even parents refuse to attempt.

A child arrives in school confused, undisciplined, overexposed to the internet, emotionally fragile and addicted to screens.

Then after eight hours in class, everyone wonders why the school did not “transform” them. It does not work like that.

A teacher can guide, but a home shapes. Schools can correct behaviour, but homes create it.

When a child has no boundaries at home, they will test every rule at school.

When a child is raised without respect, they will disrespect teachers.

When a child is raised on unlimited entertainment, they will not survive focused learning.

When a child is trained to negotiate every instruction, they will refuse every assignment. You cannot undo in one term what took years to build.

And this is the uncomfortable truth.

Some parents are outsourcing parenting. They hand children phones, tablets and TikTok, then expect schools to repair the damage.

They allow their kids to talk back, argue, be rude, sleep late, watch anything and access everything, then expect teachers to magically create discipline. It is impossible.

Schools are institutions of learning, not rehabilitation centres.

A school can support a child, but a home prepares that child to be supported.

When a home is chaotic, unstable or careless, the child carries that energy everywhere. Teachers can only work with what they are given.

If parents handle values, teachers can handle academics.

If homes build foundation, schools build the structure. But when the foundation is cracked, the structure will keep falling no matter how many times you rebuild it.
