Hmmm...
Beaten to the point I asked my Mom who my parents really were and longed for a day they'll tell me some1 else was my Mom...
Dad didn't really beat me much.

I remember my Mom beating me mercilessly because I sold stuff above her normal selling price and kept the Surplus to myself...
Guess What? After beating me I had to still go and sell the next day.

kennyman2000:

In my own case, my parents werent d beating type. But e get one special chair for my papa room dat time.... Cheiii d worst punishment in my house den was to go and sit there. U go just sit there like statue, ur only entertainment na to watch d ceiling fan rotate. Ur prayer go be make God just touch eem mind to say those magic words.. "u can go". The worst thing dat can happen to u was for him to forget and NTA 9 oclock news start... Omooo, na dia u go sleep because no hope till 10... And depending on wen d punishment began, e fit be say u never chop night food. Kaiii dat punishment dint use to be funny oo. At times u fit sit on dat chair from 5 in d evening till 10. Dat time we de wish say na beat dem de beat us oo, because highest 10 mins u don cry finish forget matter.

The kids rolling tires look happy while "mr bicycle looks dispirited".....life

Abbeyunique2:

Igi guava is bad ...then I don't know there is gonna be a time that I will be free from cane

beating because you ate in your friend's house (longer throat) beating because you went to game house (na die that day)

kennyman2000:
Lol... These indomie generation will find it difficult to understand why one will be beaten for those offences.. They'll never understand.

Some will even have sleepless night thinking how would one be beaten for this and that offence.

Some will even turn it to a research project.

Indomie generation just dey enjoy anyhow.

Watched my niece pick up his dad's phone anytime he's a call and be speaking with the caller before handing the phone to his dad.. You'll hear, ''daddy, Mr kamoru want to talk to with you ooo'' while when i was his age, i couldnt even near the TV remote for months when we bought a Tv then.

All thanks to technology!

May God bless our hustles for our parents to reap the fruit of their labour bountifully!

It's totally wrong for your niece to pick his dad's phone when he has a call. It has nothing to do with 'Indomie generation'. Stop her from it...
Thanks...

Person suffer then no be small.

Two of the most significant for me were:
1. While learning how to read time. Dad constructed a paper clock and 'exorcised' the mumu spirit in me.
2.while learning the 'ami ohun' in yoruba.
Oboi

Do you see a pattern? in normal countries, the punishment must fit the crime. Parents in Africa beat for every single reason. This is one of the reasons people think it's ok to burn a suspected thief for stealing maggi. Don't get me wrong, I gave my kids a good asss wooping when they were younger. Not all the time, but just enough. I stopped when they hit ten years old. Their brains are already formed; it's time to start explaining things to them.

I agree with you 100 %

I remember wen my mama give me #2.50k to go buy Coca Cola come for her from mama nene place. Sharp Sharp i don enta my short nicker, pick race n before u knw, i don land for mumsy front. It was a hot afternoon n d drink was so chilled. I follow mumsy enta sitting room as she prepares to sample d content. I find space, sat opposite her, waiting for d best news from her... D way wey i take channel my attention on her, even film like Robin hood, renta-ghost, Dr woo, voltron n one Chinese film wey we dey call "I trust my leg" no get my attention like dat.
As mumsy dey gulp,wey emptiness dey find space more n more inside d bottle, nai my throat dey salivate dey dry at d same time. suddenly,without looking at my direction, mumsy stretched her hand wich was handling wht was almost "d pillar of life" to me at dt moment. as i move wit amazing speed, stretching my hand to get d drink, to feel some long awaited relieve, d sound of d knock wey land for my fore-head go leave thunder strike filled wit envy.
I just hold my head, suffri find my easy way go outside. It tuk me almost a day before i reach mama nene place to return d bottle. Our mamas, i tuale. Dey r d best.
