I remember the day my dad gave me a resounding slap.

He woke me up as he was preparing for work very early in the morning. So I wasn't happy. I stood before him, looking into his eyes with anger, as he was assigning me some duties to do after school. The next thing I heard was "ta"! On my cheek.

That was the last I looked into his eyes when he's talking.

Sorry baby cry

MsFaith:
My former neighbour always beats her daughter for every little thing. They are always locked up in their 1 room apartment so there’s no way one can interfere to control the woman or the little girl to at least run away from this emotionally injured mother of hers.

It’s always so painful hearing this girl cry for help when she’s under torture. It’s one of the reasons I packed out of that house. My heart couldn’t take it anymore.
Most of us Nigerians are mentally and emotionally damaged. and we justify it with everything we can manage to. Religion. Culture. Bla bla bla

TVTKOKO:
that's a big lie! The kids back then are the grown ups of today, causing all manner of havocs!
So what happened to all those so-called discipline??
Are the kids that are now adults the ones causing havoc today? The so called social decadence is stemming from the disciplined kids, now adults failing in their duty to discipline their children...
Just like Solomon would say, "A child left to himself, brings his mother to shame"...
You know why? Because foolish is bound in the heart of a child but a rod of correction drives it out...

So leaving a child undisciplined, we already know the outcome.

Pinkzebra:
But we were abused in all of these just because we are kids and we do not have true relationship with our parents .
We felt humiliated, we hated our parents. This unnecessary beating is responsible for the high rate.of dysfunctional adults we have . We carry this burden of guilt and not knowing how to love truly or maintain healthy relationship with people .

Today I discipline my kids and do not beat them for every 'error' I mostly admonish and it works and we have close relationship. We the millennials guide and discipline in understanding while still maintaining good relationship with our kids .

Our parents do not seek to understand they themselves are broken so they try to fix their own brokenness by breaking us even. The cycle continues , but a new breed of parents are cropping up. But we must create a balance for we can break a child when scolding and discipline is absent for "allowing " a child to do whatever all in a bid to show love and understanding is dangerous in itself.
Thank you. Excessive beating is just not it. I was told that when i grow up i would understand; I still don't.

I will definitely do better as a parent when it comes to discipline.

Dunkin', otherwise called Dunkin' Donuts, is an American global espresso and donut organization. It was established by William Rosenberg in Quincy, Massachusetts, in 1950. The chain was gained by Baskin-Robbins' holding organization Allied Domecq in 1990; its obtaining of the Mister Donut chain and the transformation of that chain to dunkin donuts menu worked with the brand's development in North America that year.
