mädchen: Are you kidding? Ask for a reason? do you want a slap? Anways, I guess they did that out of love. We grew up in a rough town and they were just trying to sheild us from the indigenes. It did help in some ways cos when I tell people where I grew up, the find it difficult to beleive! stillwater: rotflmao I faced the whole 'fear' thing too . . . damn why do they do that? I out grew the fear of my dad but fear for mumsi . . . |

Ujujoan: Lol. There wasn't like a no friend rule in my own house. But for some reason (I guess it's that fear again) I didn't have the nerve to bring friends home. |

[b]Mom's mistake is that she relates everything that happens in our house to some supernatural stuffs/As the cause of witches . Even if a mosquito over-bite mom or any of us mom will immediately carry her bible and engage in a verbal war with some unseen spirit and all we hear is "die die by fire die by fire shira baba buska buska shaba shaba " . This attitude changed my younger brother's attitude that they view any unfortunate occurrence or petty accident as the handiwork of the devil, Like when my youngest brother came third in his class' promotional exam though he used to be the first he came home saying " it's the handiwork of the devil that somehow in the exam hall he could not see anything .Dad's hot slap descended on his face before he finished and mom took him to her room laid her hands on his head and was buskaing shirababaing roboskotoing , Damn ! it really got me pissed , Dad's mistake is he never allow us to stay in the kitchen when mom's cooking . Mom believed that she's teaching us to cook but dad always object and he made mom stopped it , we thought it was a good thing not until i had to start cooking myself , I burnt foods and added too much salt to the food .I could not even make a pap and the garri(eba ) do have lots of lumps [/b] |

Parents do Abuse kids thinking that they are punishing them, some do have a permanent damage to the Child I once failed to promote from form 4 to form 5, my parents called me all the names in the world, i couldnt touch the TV, video, stereo, I couldnt go out, I couldnt ask for food before they reminded me about my recent result, Practically I was called a failure and fortunately for me I made amendments, Because you fail doesnt mean your a failure, failure is an event not a person, but our parents would bang it constantly to a point that you would accept that your a failure, An English parent would say Better luck next time, meaning you could do better, encouraging the child to do better, But beating a child because he failed is purely child abuse |

i remeber this one wella. we were for a long time, the only muslims on my street as a kid. one sallah we found that 90% of our neighbours ('born agains') were basically throwing the ram meat we gave away we always enjoyed the sallah meals our neighbor sent us, when i was a kid. however, after i was grown, a friend [not from my area] told me she never eats such food because of the superstition attached to it.[fear] now, this was in a different town so these things might vary from place to place. |

mädchen: I seriously doubt that! Where are you from |
Re: Things Our Parents/guardians/elders Did That Was Wrong Back Then by spikedcylinder: 5:36pm On Sep 21, 2010 |
Ujujoan: mädchen: Ok then. I just hope you realise that no one hates their parents for choosing to bring them up the way they did? It's how they knew best. |
Re: Things Our Parents/guardians/elders Did That Was Wrong Back Then by madchen(f): 5:36pm On Sep 21, 2010 |
mydreamz: 100% but my parents didn't 'thrash' me for talking, And to assume that it's 'Nigerian' for parents to mistreat kids is wrong in my opinion, To each their own |

dayokanu: Ujujoan, I meant asking your parents today! I don't think they'd slap you today. I'm assuming everyone's grown |
Re: Things Our Parents/guardians/elders Did That Was Wrong Back Then by Nobody: 5:38pm On Sep 21, 2010 |
dayokanu: ROTFLMAO I guess that's the fun in being the last in a family of 9. My parents were tired of flogging by then! |

Re: Things Our Parents/guardians/elders Did That Was Wrong Back Then by Nobody: 5:40pm On Sep 21, 2010 |
mädchen: Oh you mean asking them now, Jeez, why would I care? It was how they knew best to raise their children and I hold no grudge whatosever against them. Really, I couldnt care less why the did it now! |
Re: Things Our Parents/guardians/elders Did That Was Wrong Back Then by spikedcylinder: 5:40pm On Sep 21, 2010 |
Ujujoan: Exactly! By the time it was my turn, my father was tired. My mum was another matter sha. International beater, that woman. |

I think we should make another thread for ordeals of first born especially male first born. At some time, I was so convinced they were not my parents, And I even formed pictures and scenarios in my head of how "my real parents gave me up for adoption" I was wondering how my real parents can be this tough/wicked on me |
Re: Things Our Parents/guardians/elders Did That Was Wrong Back Then by Nobody: 5:43pm On Sep 21, 2010 |
Ujujoan: Me too, by the time it was my turn, they couldnt flog anymore Even my dad had to agree that am soooo spoilt |
Re: Things Our Parents/guardians/elders Did That Was Wrong Back Then by Nobody: 5:46pm On Sep 21, 2010 |
dayokanu: LOL My elder sister once ran away from home and lied to some 'good samaritans' that her parents were dead and she was an only child! It took the grace of God for them to find her cos the couple had taken her in as their child. And she was only 10! |
Re: Things Our Parents/guardians/elders Did That Was Wrong Back Then by madchen(f): 5:47pm On Sep 21, 2010 |
Ujujoan: Ujujoan: Those were my words exactly in this thread earlier. I'm not asking anyone to hate their parents o! (Although I'm sure some do ) I'm yoruba! someone asked! |
Re: Things Our Parents/guardians/elders Did That Was Wrong Back Then by Nobody: 5:49pm On Sep 21, 2010 |
mädchen: Nodoby hates their parents. I would give anything to have my dad back, even if it would mean him flogging me again. My mum thank God, is still alive and I would give her the whole world if she asks. But were you born and bred in Nigeria? Or did you live all your life overseas? |
Re: Things Our Parents/guardians/elders Did That Was Wrong Back Then by madchen(f): 5:52pm On Sep 21, 2010 |
mädchen: Born, and raised in Nigeria! I don't know for a fact if you can say that no one hates their parents. People resent their parents for many diverse reasons, and some don't even have anything to do with hitting a kid, or 'disciplining' Good for you that you were not traumatised by ur parents 'disciplining' you. |

My mother threatened to stop my brother's school for wooing a girl It took the begging of the whole neighbourhood for her to come down Good thing dad wasnt home when it happened, I swear that guy would miss the WAEC he was preparing for that time |
Re: Things Our Parents/guardians/elders Did That Was Wrong Back Then by madchen(f): 5:55pm On Sep 21, 2010 |
