So most of you cant take your child to a phychiatrist for check up or mental discipline? Hmmmmm wen we talk of discipline, ur mind switches to beating, shows hw u will discipline ur child. Anyway as for me, i will discipline my children as a parent and do my best to choose the right environment where my children can be disciplined. Buh pplez replies shows hw average nigerian thinks, if nigerians keep thinkin lik dis, am average we wont develop. |

@Op. Do you mean 'ask' or 'allow'? If it's 'ask' like you have written, i wouldn't be a bad parent as to 'ask' someone discipline my child. But if it's 'allow', then, i definitely will. Why not? If it's done justly and with love, why not? |

Yes, but it depends on who is disciplining my child and the severity of the discipline. I would allow a school teacher to discipline my child. I would allow my brothers and sisters to discipline my kids if they go wrong, they are even allowed to beat them reasonably. I imagine the idiot I would have become if not for the beatings from my Mom and teachers. It puts a certain degree of fear in kids. Even the Bible says 'spare the rod and spoil the child'. We shouldn't try to be like the west. A society where kids can use the 'F' word on parents or elders without any fear. No wonder you have kids shooting up schools in the west- they were brought up without discipline and fear. If my kid goes wrong, please, Nairalanders, give him a little and reasonable dose of spanking to put him in line. There was a day a 5 year old son of my neighbour hit me with the sole of his mother's high heel shoes when I was in their house for a visit. The kind of slaps I landed on that boy that day in the presence of his Mum... Hmmmmm. I was waiting for her to protest but she kept quiet and apologised for her son's folly. If she had protested, I would have shown her my mad side too. 4 Likes |

Callotti: YOU are only allowed to correct them. . .as in you are not allowed to do this or that. No way in hell will I be picking up the phone to call you because if I am not allowed to discipline your child, I would not be taking charge of them in the first place. And if it is not even a case of me being in charge of them, as long as what they are doing does not affect me, I would leave them alone. Let them play football on expressway, I would call my own child in and leave them to it. @ OP, Obviously it is not a funky proposition but I can let other people discipline my kids. It would obviously not be the whole world or just any adult but there are several friends and family I would be happy to allow discipline my kids. And, trust me, I would love my child as much as, if not more than, you love yours. I am just not a funky parent. I don't think my sister-in-law and brother can ever dare say I can not discipline my nephews because no be me born dem. If they step out of line, I would smack them. The prats are lucky I have not done it so far. The only case of smacking I gave was when the older one was always playing very rough with his 1 year old brother. He was actually trying to show love and play with him by hugging him but he was so forceful as a 3 year old, yanking the neck, squeezing him too tight and also doing it too frequently to the frustration of the 1 year old that just wanted to exercise his freedom to explore and rearrange the house (like an interior designer). You tell him to stop but 5 minutes later he is doing it again in a dangerous way that he could actually hurt the younger one. It was me, my mum and the nanny that were home. Even my mum was getting angry at the frequency and everytime I tell him to stop, he would only stop and then do it again in a few minutes. After a while my mum was saying "What kind of uncle are you sef? Smack him jor". After a while, after the umpteenth time and I saw he was not stopping, I took him and gave him 2 slaps on the bum bum. He looked at me in shock and self-pity. Mummy and Daddy usually smack him but Uncle has never, only kisses. Little prat. No need to say the smack worked magic compared to the silly negotiations with a child. He stopped and was now playing on his own and sometimes with his brother but with little physical contact. After a while, I too felt like showing the cute prat some love and decided to give him a cuddle. It was when he was deep into playing with a toy and he was enjoying it and just wanted to do that, so he was wriggling to be left alone. "Oooooooooh! Really?" Evil uncle just saw his opportunity. I grabbed him and hugged him hard and a little rough and held on to him kissing his face till his frustration was high. After about 20 seconds, I left him and he was slightly pissed and he was almost crying. I then told him, "You see how annoying it is. You see what you were doing to your brother and how he was irritated"? My mother was giggling and saying "Agbaya!". 3 Likes |

debrief08: When we dedicated him in church when he was born, the whole church was asked to rise and they all affirmed that they will as a community love and correct him helping us to raaise him according to the will of God. Beautifully put. I am sure your kids are very likely to respect adults and easier work to nanny far more than a kid that only the parents can discipline. There was a lot of shyt I couldn't do as a kid because even the neighbours will be the ones disciplining me. No need to say I am still in contact with all my neighbours as a kid till today, very close family friends even though we live on different continents and even different towns in Nigeria today. While I don't say more than the customary "Hi" to my neighbours in London today. 3 Likes |

favouryemmy: Plz would you ask another person to discipline for child for misbehaving?Sure. It depends on my relationship with them though. It does take a village to raise a child. Kids can be really naughty sometimes and why should that child not be corrected simply because I'm not around at that moment? |
Re: Would You Ask Someone Else To Discipline Your Child For You? by KDULAR: 12:59pm On Dec 23, 2012 |
Most definitely yes but to someone I respect regard and I adjudged sound because some types and aspect of discipline that are necessary, some of us as parents and individuals cannot dispense or handle adequately. To those who will not allow their child to be disciplined by someone else well nothing bad with that I just advice advise likewise that they should not ask for help or favour of any sort from someone else for their child |

If it's like verbal cool. anything but physically. put your hand on my child? haha! imagine that. some folks don't have boundaries especially if the child is not their blood. so...i don't have any yet but when i do, touch them at your own risk!! |
Re: Would You Ask Someone Else To Discipline Your Child For You? by Originalsly: 3:12pm On Dec 23, 2012 |
What do you mean by discipline your child?.... and why would you have to ask someone? If you have to it means you have failed as a parent to discipline your own child and if you ask....you cant be mad with with the person for whatever method he/she chooses to use. |
Re: Would You Ask Someone Else To Discipline Your Child For You? by agiboma(f): 3:26pm On Dec 23, 2012 |
@ OP when you say "discipline" to you mean hit/beat your child. I dont beleive in spanking so i would not beat my child nor will i allow others to do so. If for example my son is in School and he does something wrong certainly the teacher should verbally correct him and thats it noting more. |

I Would not mind if someone else should discipline my child. But the problem is that just as the mechanics drive rough when they want to taste their customers vehicles, the same thing happens when some people want to discipline other children, some people would like to discipline other children harder than they could do to their own child making the parents of the child to bcom angry. |

I know I'm more likely to do it with love than someone else, the purpose is just for correction. But I'll make him/her realize why I'm doing so. |

No matter the method you choose, if you dont correct your kids when they do wrong they would grow up that way and might be a menace to society. You shd be able do it urself. |
