This is how my mum lost my sister's love till today. My sister still claim till today that she was able to end up with that monster called husband because of our mum's action that very day. Though, she claims to have forgiven her, but honestly, the bitterness is still very obvious.


Parenthood is not an easy task, we need wisdom and tact to raise these children. And the best way to get the best from our children is to come down to their levels, make them your friends and let them be free with you, that way, they will see their parents as their confidant.

Any parent whose child/ren cannot confide in, is not good parents.

Very touching.

Parenting isn't an easy task at all,it takes wisdom,patience and tolerance....not by making threats that won't come to pass,that child will just know that "shebi na to lock me out for like four hours cheesy them go soon come open door" before you know it,the so called child is mingling with all sorts of bad people in the neighborhood.

I'm not forming my dear,it's not good to use this method on someone,be it your kids,siblings,maid or spouse...' If you don't do this or that,don't come back to this house,that person may very well not go back to that house.

It was nothing but all a terrible experiences! I could remember vividly, though am still young to forget, i slept on the verander thrice, when i was 15 and so many! To me, it is not really good, parents of this new generation should kindly not embace this, though we kids do misbehave some times and look at our parent like kinni won fe se! What we they do

I remember the day I stole my mom's money to play Sega, I returned late and she disgraced me in a compound with not less than 50 people and sent me out in an empty stomach. That night the only thing I could think of was "suicide" I wanted to run into the road so that one of those big dangote trucks will run me over but I was afraid of the pain I'll feel. I wanted a pain free death and couldn't find any means to it. cheesy Guess that's the reason I'm alive today

Terrible experience $ to think that I was coming from Church ~ choir rehearsals. Step dad though, I doubt that my dad would do that to me. Slept at my friend's place, she was so mad. I caught a terrible cold that night that affected me for month cos I was waiting for three hours 9pm till 12 thinking he was kidding.


Just doesn't make sense, no parent should do that.

I don't like people using others to make their mistake look like others fault. I disagree with your 1st paragraph cos a similar issue played out with a friend.

I don't know her own story ooo but Parents action or not, as adults make ur decision and when u realise you made a mistake walk out and find a better life

Our own punishment was more like "sit down there, you are not moving an inch"


Why would sane person chase a child out the house, let alone at night? Ha!

True. But my parents don't do the sleep-outside method.
Anytime i break a plate or something, mum's always like,' i will keep it and package it as a wedding gift for u.' but funny enough i am still the one who disposes them.

African parents are strict, but that hasn't stopped corruption from eating deep into the very fabric of the Nigerian populace. I won't beat my kids, I don't believe in spanking
