It takes a village to raise a child.

hi Loulou
Examples of African societies with proverbs which translate to 'It takes a village...' include the following:[2]

In Lunyoro (Bunyoro) there is a proverb that says 'Omwana takulila nju emoi,' whose literal translation is 'A child does not grow up only in a single home.'
In Kihaya (Bahaya) there is a saying, 'Omwana taba womoi,' which translates as 'A child belongs not to one parent or home.'
In Kijita (Wajita) there is a proverb which says 'Omwana ni wa bhone,' meaning regardless of a child's biological parent(s) its upbringing belongs to the community.
In Swahili, the proverb 'Asiye funzwa na mamae hufunzwa na ulimwengu' approximates to the same.

@sogdianrock I thought you were using village as a metaphor for older and experienced 😄

I was trying to answer the question. I guess young people find connections where it matters to them on social networks. I was talking humanistically.
