A Germany-based Nigerian woman has revealed the measure she took to prevent further losses after her son broke two TV sets in one year.
The woman, identified as @aunty_temi on Twitter, took to the microblogging platform to share her ordeal and the tweet has garnered over twenty thousand reactions.
According to the frustrated mom, she was forced to buy a projector after her son destroyed two TV sets because she didn’t want him to break another one.
She posted photos of her son standing in front of a cartoon image projected on the wall and wrote,
“After breaking 2 TVs in one year , I bought projector. Fool me once , shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me ????????????????????”
The now-viral tweet has stirred hilarious reactions online, especially from parents, who also shared their experiences with their kids.

It makes them very careful and responsible.
For someone like me, I will buy the TV but he will pay back even if it takes me 18 years to keep deducting his money.”
