Mindfulness:
I grew up around Westerners who were raised in a different way. My parents were extremely strict but the other kids were more responsible than me. I changed with time but I know that I will raise my kids differently 'cause not trusting your kids and being over-controlling does not lead to the desired results. The Nigerian society is proof of that.

When in Rome, do as the Romans.

Western contries have benefit system to cater for jobless/homeless adults. An adult is one who is 18yrs and above. Parents are only responsible for their kids till 18yrs. After that the Child can go and find job and live on their own. No matter how E bad reach, the child can always collect benefit from government.
It pays for such parents to do Friend-friend with their kids.
-
in Nigeria, there is no benefit, no social care. Nothing. Your parents continue remaining responsible for you till you whatever age you can start paying your own house rent and generally f**k off from the home. So you better obey and respect them otherwise they fling you out to the main road where you will grow Dada hair ad slowly deteriorate like many of the mad people you see walking around in Lagos. Nobody cares about them.

First of all, I never said that the parents of those kids I grew up with were doing friend-friend with them. This is a misconception that you have there. Frankly speaking, I did not know and still don't know any parents here who do friend-friend with their children. I am not saying they do not exist but I claim they are the exception.

And your f*ck off from home when you are 18 is another misconception. Nobody tells their children to f*ck off from home unless they are some dysfunctional family.

If African children are well trained then why isn't their behaviors reflecting positively on the society?

what are you talking about? West Africa is still pretty much resisting western influence on the upbringing of their children. Western values and morals are still looked down on in Nigeria, there aren't that many parents in Nigeria raising their kids with western values and beliefs and morals...

Getting a job or passing an exam on merit

Nigerian parents will make sure they hook you up with someone they know or pay for a special center instead of leaving you to get the job or pass the exam based on your own effort

Then they will go to church and give testimony to Jehovah grin

I didn't grow up in Nigeria. if you are talking about Africa before colonialism then I might have to agree that the society was very much saner before we came in contact with the Europeans... however when it comes to upbringing of kids , much hasn't really changed in the way African children were brought up before colonialism from now..
