3. The Silent Treatment
Nothing hurts than swallowing spit or not given the chance to explain yourself. This is one field a typical Ghanaian parent is adept at.
In the Ghanaian setting, so long as you’re a young girl or boy ,no outing for you. Parties are completely out of the question— home must be bae. Woe betides you if you go out without their permission and worsen it all by coming late.
Just know that your life as a nun or pope has just began. The thing is they will not even have to tell you not to step out, you just know better than to do otherwise.
They go silent on you so much so that of a pin is dropped in their midst, one would hear the sound and if in the name of Satan you mistakenly do something that on a normal day will be not much of a big deal like changing the TV channel, the stare that they would give you will awaken all your marrows to full glee.
After they show you this horrid side of them, even if it is a school program you are going for, better present all the prove they need including a note written by your headmistress herself.
