Little kids are fond of crying on their first day in school, reason why @odenibo was surprised that his son didn't follow the trend.

Social media users flooded the comment section of the post and explained why the little man didn't cry.

Tweep with the handle @Kepler_banks commented:

"Can't you hear music? Baba sef dey dance. During our time, the sounds of one student crying following some proper lashing was enough to stimulate the tears."

Reacting to @Kepler_'s comment, @_Kelvinee_wrote:

"Swear this was the reason children cried a lot back then on their first day, schools felt and looked like prisons. Grey walls, sounds of lashing and children crying at every corner, why I no go cry??"

@Easerael_tweet reacted:

"When school sef set with nice music playing on the background unlike those school wey we go during our own time."

In a previous report by YEN.com.gh, two adorable little boys went viral for dancing to Master KG and Nomcebo's hit song - Jerusalema.

The 58-second clip starts with a boy in a blue long sleeve t-shirt dancing on his own before he is joined by a friend in red.

The two boys showed off their amazing synchronisation and dance skills with each having a solo at different times. At the 30-second mark a third boy, with a white t-shirt, joined in but did not stay for too long.

The cute video of the little boys was posted to Facebook by New African Woman Magazine and it gained millions of views.
