Reacting to the viral skit, Mr Macaroni cautioned parents and guardians against the urge of making children go extreme while trying to explore their talents. He admonished everyone to apply caution and make them showcase talents in ways appropriate for their age.
Macaroni noted that doing so will nurture and develop their talents for a longer lifespan
Taking to the X apol, Macaroni wrote, “Dear parents and guardians, I understand the urge to want to make the most out of our uniquely talented children.
I however strongly believe that we must apply caution while doing so.
We must showcase their talents in ways appropriate for their respective ages.
We must put our children first and groom them right.
That way, we are able to develop the durability and longevity of their talent as opposed to a short viral moment.
We owe them and our society that guidance.
My love always.
Children are uniquely gifted. While I believe in catching them young, I also understand that we must groom and direct them to create at a pace suitable for their respective ages.
As they grow, they can be allowed more creative freedom.
One step at a time.”
