NO! It is never an ideal practice as it sure would always backfire. There is a Yoruba adage that says "Bi a ba ta ara ile eni lopo, bo ba di owon, a o le rira" meaning, when you say bad things about your relatives, you only make them lose respect before people and that is the way people will treat them as well.
