Jane Obi has some advice for parents and caregivers which emphasizes the importance of being a positive role model for children.
The popular Nollywood actress wants parents or other influential grown-ups to understand that children learn by observing the behavior of their parents because they look up to them and try to imitate their actions and attitudes.
In other words, if the child observes positive behavior and attitudes in those around them, they are more likely to internalize these values and behaviors as they grow up.
