This story remind me of when I was growing up I think I was in SS3 1 then and my daddy was given a brand new Sony TV for his 20th service award at work and in less than a week, you know me as a curious engineering aspirant student i dey build thing dismantle things to understand the working principles. This faithful day there was holiday, he forgot something at home and he came back to pick it,the whole Television thing on the floor with i trying to understand how it works . I heard his footsteps I quickly use the curtail to cover it but immediately he heard my "welcome daddy" he knew something was amiss,he drew closer to me open the curtain and saw his valuable t v being dismantled on the floor. that day na to die remain as iwas frozen to death But because of the love he has for me he just shook his head and just told me" osha bodo sise ni temi",he went inside took his envelope and left . if you see the way I was so happy that day anytime I look back and i think it was that particular incident that truly convinced them that I was born and designed to be an engineer.Even if mommy is shouting and warning about me using wire to join wire inside and doing my engineering stuff he will just tell Mummy leave me and that I will be fine. I'm so happy today at I'm a mechanical engineer 14 Likes 3 Shares |

achimendy:my brother when I said overlook, I meant in some things that are trivial. It is not everything you beat a child for. There are times that even mere words or scolding work better than beating or flogging. There should be a balance. I have a cane in my house and I still flog my children st times, but there are times you need to calmly talk to them to correct them. Life is all about balance. 2 Likes |

achimendy:I I had a friend who was flogged and beaten for every mistake, yet she ended up in bar beach as a prostitute even with all the beatings and corrections. She got so used to the beatings that it meant nothing again to her. She would say, no be beating, I go chest am. My father hardly beat us his children while growing up and are very good children , raising up wonderful well behaved intelligent children. My dad did more of scolding and silent treatment and waking us up at midnight to scokd us. It didn't make us useless. Like I said life is about balance. If you beat a child to death and that child wants to be a rebel, he will even rebel against you in the grave 3 Likes |

Hmm. Children. Where will one start. Anything I see these days, I will gladly swallow it. My husband cous bought a very expensive designer handbag for me as wedding gift and I no dey use this bag anyhow. My 3 and half years old decided to learn how to do colouring with it using red nail polish and palm oil. How he got the 3 is still a mystery. Shock no gree me shout. Just took the picture and send to his uncle. Guy said I made his day at work. Imagine. 2 Likes 1 Share |

One decided to cook. Washing gel plus palm oil plus egg plus milk mixed together. Mummy I want to cook. By the time I reach kitchen, traces of the mixture was from the kitchen to my room and everything poured on my bed. That he wanted to come and show me what he wanted to cook and then slipped. Mattress, pillows, bedsheets and everything on the bed, replaced. Just last two yrs Christmas, one decided to wash the living room tv. That was how tv spoiled. Replaced. Nothing shocks me anymore. Few months ago my eldest did something bad and felt I will reprimand him so he decided to wash. My new non stick wok had many colours by the time I entered house. If I should start adding the money I use in replacing stuffs, hmm. I didn't do reach like this to my parents na. I was a good kid I'm keeping good record. Payback time |

Mummyfour: I remember I talked about using diplomacy to correct your children, maybe you didn't see it. As you said is good to balance up, but some women are totally careless when it comes to correcting children, they even support their children when they do wrong or even keep quiet and watch, no home training from their parents. Some women even love their children to the extent that they don't even shout at them talk more of beat them. I love the combination of my parents, mum is cold dad is hot. Good mixture. |

achimendy:well noted.. you are right Like me o, I discipline my children, I flog when I have to, I scold, scream, beat, yell and talk calmly I do. Truly bringing up children in this era is truly difficult, it takes more than discipline but more wisdom, prayers and patience I |
