That's what happens when you allow your children to have everything their way.

Modern day parents need to learn how to say "NO" and mean it.

If you allow you child/children to have everything their own way then expect disaster the first time you will say "No" to their request.

BTW, this kain thing no dey happen from the place I came from, cause.

1. Even rats no fit see where mumsy dey hide money.

2. Who give you time to watch television?

3. Who are you to say yes when mom said NO?

You can't nah.....

I totally understand that the mother acted out of frustration or anger. $720 is quite an amount to throw down the drain like that. However, the major issue is parents are not allowed to hit their kids heavily, especially if it results to body damage or psychological after-effects. Spanking is permitted, especially as a form of correction to let the child know that it did something not right. Where it gets bad is when the spanking becomes excessive, frequent or the child suffers physical or emotional damage as a result.

It is usually said that black mothers spank their children more often than white mothers.

I came across this story online and I was flabbergasted.

Danielle Whipple, a 24 year old single mother was arrested for beating her child who flushed their rent money down the toilet because she (the mum} refused to watch TV.

The woman's neighbours reported to the police because they heard the child crying and heard the sound of smacking. When police arrived at the scene, they found Whipple' child, whose gender and age was not released, with a black eye, a bleeding nose and a red handprint on the face.

Subsequently she was arrested and now faces a charge of felony child abuse.

Now, I am in no way in support of child abuse, but i want to throw it to Nairalanders: How would you react if your child deliberately flushed N162,000 house rent money down the toilet because you refused to watch a movie with him/her?

Note that $720 is about N162,000 in Nigerian currency.

The good Book said "TRAIN your child... and he/she will give you REST"!
The corollary is that "if you fail to train your child, he/she will cause you a lot of grief and heartache".

So, who do you blame for the grief that Mother is going through?

Most children in the "WEST" (a.k.a Abroad) are over-pampered, untrained (common to greet elder sef, na so dem go open thattheir big lips dey look you like otondo! ), disrespectful, lacking in spiritual and moral values and spoilt to the core!

On a serious note, If that Parent has been instilling "morals and values" into her child, that child wont be so wayward.
To now beat her to the stage of bloodshed.... that is unacceptable!

I dont wish she is jailed and her child siezed but she need to be taught a lesson: Dont ever scold your child ...IN ANGER! That is child abuse!

Let the anger subside first (Wooh, l go kill this child o! )..... then "Lovingly like a loving parent", talk some sense into that child.. and you may add some cane, mildly for "effects"!

Lmao!! I trust Nigerians.

If I were a 24 year old struggling single mother and I just managed to hustle up our house rent, and my child now flushes that money down the toilet because I no gree watch film...

Kai kai kai kai...wo, I will beat shege out of your life. After beating you I will massage your body with hot water and give you kiddies paracetamol

In your life when next time I say no, you will know mummy means NO

White people ehn...That's why their kids grow up spoilt rotten. They carry guns and gun their peers down because of this useless sense of entitlement they have. No home training.

moshoodn:
I see lots of people saying maybe the child doesn't know the value of money....


Hmmmmm. . The child does know. The child knew very well what would pain the mum. It's like a vendetta..

Why not her pills, which may be easily accessible.

Why not tear her clothes or smash the remote controller of the TV.?

Why the money?

The child obviously knew that would make the mum go wild... And she sure did.


********************************************************
Addendum: Train up your child in the way that he should go, and when he grows, he will not depart from it. .

As a parent, the onus is on you.
