Teespice: Well said.

Nothing hurts than being compared to other children/peers.

chelseabmw: Lol everyone is guilty

Can this really stop?

Nahh I don't think so

Boland: Sometimes it helps the child to be more constructive.

jomile: Wish my dad could see dis,always comparing us 2 our neighbors children,nd telling us how worthless we r,but now d case is d reserve

Princeojua: It is truely said. But sometime it's not call compare. It's contrast. You won't be direct but you indirectly tell the child that 'Junior, You ain't living up to expectation. I know you can do better than Mike or Jenny. You have better head and brain than them. Do your best.

obayaya: Hahaha!!!

My papa and mama wan use comparison kill person. I changed secondary school back then because someone told mum I wasn't as good as she thinks I am. That if I'm in the school her son attends, i'll come last in the class. When I got to the new school, the son in question was dragging first position from behind

The truth is Comparison has its pros and cons. It can be used to motivate and it can also be used to malign. It all depends on how it's used.

My parents will never appreciate or commend you in your presence. Instead, they'll always use this line "Other people wey dey do am get 2 heads". But if you hear them talk about you outside, you'll be

But there are other times they'll make some comparisons that makes me feel so bad and unworthy.
