One phrase i dislike when my mom uses to use it (Momo) I didn't talk to my own parents like that, and don't forget your own children will do the same |

wow, poster. . . .the worst my mom ever told me was "why can't you be patient, you rush things too much." " you're too stubborn, ask anyone, i was never like that when i was your age" " i am your mother, anything i say goes" "dnt argue with me, i know what am talking about. " "i told you, didn't i? you just dnt listen. i know what i say when i say them" |

Re: African Parent Cathchphrases & Punishment by Nobody: 11:26pm On Mar 19, 2008 |

"I hope your kids are not stubborn like you because its not heredity" see this woman wey dey talk, she's more stubborn than me but my mom scares me sometimes with stories of what happens when you dnt listen to your mother. . . man, i know i should not believe, but she's a good story teller, so i rarely misbehave |

Re: African Parent Cathchphrases & Punishment by HRhotness(f): 11:35pm On Mar 19, 2008 |
Anybody that says I did not train you well, thunder will fire you and the person lol, thats hilarious My mums a big softy so when i gets angry she gets brutal just to make a point her favorite was "as long as u live under my roof u will do as i say" ( i tried running away a number of times but i had no where to go ) "u devil child, i will beat the evil out of u" or "i will beat the uselessness out of u" (depending on how bad i was and then she'd proceed to whoop my ass) LOL, those were the days |
Re: African Parent Cathchphrases & Punishment by Gamine(f): 11:46pm On Mar 19, 2008 |
My mum hardly said such lines. YOU DONT HAVE ANOTHER MOTHER!!!!!! was her favorite. Then she'd just use anything in her reach to beat you. Cane Bottle pot keg shoe that thing they use for turning eba/amala/semo e.t.c |

Re: African Parent Cathchphrases & Punishment by Nobody: 12:05am On Mar 20, 2008 |

Re: African Parent Cathchphrases & Punishment by bigfather(m): 12:08am On Mar 20, 2008 |
Mothers can be very funny atimes ,my father hardly ever complains. My mum usually goes; Omo ti o ba so pe iya ohun o ni sun,omo na gan o ni fi oju kan oru n ! Meaning : A child that says his mother will not sleep,the child will definately not sleep too ! And another annoying part is that she compares me with the neigbour's children,saying those ones are far more better than i am,meeennnn that statement really got me so crazy then but thank God she is really enjoying the fruit of her labour. No more odd statement ! |
Re: African Parent Cathchphrases & Punishment by Nobody: 12:10am On Mar 20, 2008 |
My mom when she got angry would say These children,you people won't kill me. God will not allow me to utter any bad word I won't say your kids should treat you the way you've treated me yet she said it I'm not training you so I can eat you , it is for you to be useful to yourself then the one I hated the most,since I was a tomboy growing up,loved to climb trees and play ball with the boys don't you know you're a girl,what do you call those things growing on your chest the above made me maaaaaaaaaaaaaad |
Re: African Parent Cathchphrases & Punishment by Dreloaded(f): 12:14am On Mar 20, 2008 |
It's either you bend or you break big father: My brother gets this all the time. |
Re: African Parent Cathchphrases & Punishment by Nobody: 12:14am On Mar 20, 2008 |

Re: African Parent Cathchphrases & Punishment by Nobody: 12:16am On Mar 20, 2008 |

Re: African Parent Cathchphrases & Punishment by Nobody: 12:16am On Mar 20, 2008 |
nwando:lol. . .i seriously hate when my mom tells me this " You'll not continue to be as stubborn and disobedient as your father, as long as i am your mother" and "If i slap you, you will meet Jesus and come back to earth" |

morenike09: that line is too much. love it. Anybody that says I did not train you well, thunder will fire you and the person The above from stillwater is still cracking me up I think most mothers used thunder in one way or another but this one is not just for the child but for any one that questions her motherly skills 2 in 1 thunder ROFL |
Re: African Parent Cathchphrases & Punishment by Gamine(f): 2:06am On Mar 20, 2008 |
My mum used to teach , so she had canesss i think they distributed them at her school if she sent us to get , we wld not return besides she didnt hv dat tym. My dad never spoke harshly to us, the highest thing he did to me when i stayed out very late at a friends was to write on two fullscap sheets "i will never stay out late again" one of my most memorable punishments was to drink 10 bottles of water! one wikid aunty like dat, cnt remember what i did! |
Re: African Parent Cathchphrases & Punishment by sweetberry(f): 8:20am On Mar 20, 2008 |
funny that i can relate to some of the post!!!!!! oh my daddy when we have done something bad he always say "go and choose your belt" and we tend to choose the medium one cos if you choose the small one he will go and choose the biggest of all my mum never beats you suddenly apart from slaps, what my mum says is i will beat you this evening, oh the mental toture!!! i won't be able to eat, play or whatever all i will be thinking about is the beating i will be getting that night when my mummy is really angry she tends to end all her sentences with "nonsence and ingredient" |
Re: African Parent Cathchphrases & Punishment by sweetberry(f): 9:32am On Mar 20, 2008 |
i have a younger brother (16 years) anytime i go home they always arguing bro: If you touch me I'll call social services Dad: If you call them, I'll beat them, then I'll beat YOU! & my favorite Mark this day on your calender you were reborn!!!!! |
Re: African Parent Cathchphrases & Punishment by Scopium: 9:59am On Mar 20, 2008 |
sweetberry: [size=13pt]That's real funny. Let your bro come to Naija and call social service.[/size] |
Re: African Parent Cathchphrases & Punishment by Scopium: 10:15am On Mar 20, 2008 |
[size=13pt]There was a certain time my parents thought I've gone BADDER than I really was when I was in the boarding school and that annoyed me. They accused me of things I never even imagined. They said if I don't listen to them I'll grow up useless. My mum will always say When you walk in the street people will point at you and say 'see that useless child'. One day I was so pissed and my mum said that again and I retorted When you walk in the street people will point at you and say 'see the mother of that useless child'. She was so shocked. From that day she stopped saying that. And I felt very bad. I planned for eternity on how to apologise but couldn't do it. That's like 10 years now and I didn't grow up useless! [/size] |
Re: African Parent Cathchphrases & Punishment by Glorya(f): 11:30am On Mar 22, 2008 |
my mom is the 'i will beat u' type who never gets to doing the beating. The only weapon she has is i will tell your daddy, then come and see begging. All the mummy please and mummy i promise will then come out from our mouths. |
