Yomieluv: Spanking is good,where necessary,don't leave a bruise.

The heart of a child is strong,only cane soften it.

Am a living example,if not mum's use of cane,I would have gone bad,the thought of the cane always put a strain on my activities at times.

aolatunde00: I told myself same thing and it's becoming increasingly more difficult to abide by with my 21month old son.
He runs the water dispenser almost everyday completely running it out on the kitchen floor at least once
He goes to his clothes drawer to empty the neatly ironed and folded clothes.
He empties his laundry basket too;at least twice a day
This is minus going to turn off/on wall sockets as soon as no one is around.
He's also pulled a standing wall mirror on himself crashing it in the process and slightly bruising himself.
I have introduced spanking on the bum to caution him
Have I also mentioned he's a pro in climbing any and all things?chairs,dinning tables,centre table,climbs into his own high chair amongst many others?
He needs to be cautioned before he endNgers himself unknowinhlu

bebe2: its very possible to raise a child without beatings.

i have lots of friends, who swear they ve never been beaten and today they are perfectly behaved.

i was beaten as a child mainly in school and am not better behaved than any of them,

there are also boys i know, that were beaten mercilessly in those days, canned till their backs were raw.

especially one called pule. but that hasnt done him any good.

last i heard he was working in a motor park as a loader, and fights at the slightest opportunity.

shizzleStar: Beating becomes a necessity when a child is unruly or unrepentantly sturbon. Nothing wrong with it

iwakolewa: I believe it's possible not to beat a child if you want to,my kids are very hyperactive and they do the naughtiest of things. ...all I do is apply patience and wisdom,many parents do not have the patience to deal with kids especially kids that are ages 18 months to about 8 years...I spanked my 4year old daughter in the presence of my mum one time,and my mum was so upset,nothing wey she no talk that day. ...that I was worse than my kids at stressing her and so I shouldn't beat my kids again,she then took her time to tell me the things I did as a child. ...it was so funny, so I decided that my kids were just being what they are,children. So I'd rather discipline and mete out what I deem to be punishment,like for my almost 5year old daughter, anytime she gets naughty,I make her count 1-200,if she makes mistakes, she'll start again, and it has helped me and her too.....or I tell her to lie down and sleep,na by force sleep o,she hates siestas...once I say,lie down,she'll just say mummy,sorry, I won't do it again

CyberEBOLA: I JUST ASKED MY DAD AND AFTER TWO SLAPS, HE SAID NO.

Bleep America. They are not a standard. Check out almost every precinct there has a gansta unit with guns ready to blaze at slight provocation.

Even their president is a gay sympathiser possibly one too albeit having a wife. A country that threatens to sanction other countries because they are against men opening yansh for fellow men to ram home. Abeg!

Xcapist: Wait, wait, wait! you mean one seriously can't even spank his toddler in the US? Seriously serious?! I don't mean beat with cane oo, because I don't condone that myself. I my dad flogged us ehh, hmmm, we chop igabti no be small and like magic we all turn out well, none will need therapy for sure and my elder siblings are often grateful for it.
For me o, I've tried shouting, eye contact, bribing, and spanking with my nephews. Them lads love to be bribed with icecream but even that is not as effective as spanking! And I think it's bad to bribe kids but sometime you'd do anything for some sanity. And the belt is the ultimate means of controlling those duo. I never go as far as to use the belt, because I never had to, I just pull it out and a pin drop silence is what I get. That's because their dad uses belt and they have incredible reverence for it.
I also discovered that using a little 'psychology', mind games works well, rewarding good behaviour as an incentive for further good behaviour, and I find that if I tell the younger one to keep an eye on my laptop and not allow anyone touch because I trust he's my pal and would run to tell me, it's done!

kulboy: In my state of origin according to my Nigerian passport, it is practically "IMPOSSIBLE" because that child's gonna grow up to very Disrespectful and Rude.

ITbomb: People who are against beatings are mostly the ones who got more than enough and maybe from anger rather than correction.

Extreme spanking is counter productive. A child's mind is an open book to be written upon. Reasoning is limited till later.

Beating should be without anger but love and understanding for the beating. Reward also should follow up for good behaviour.

Kachisbarbie: Yes na...my parents have never laid their hands on us and we very responsible and all...
If I open this my big eyes, better fear go catch ma pikin, I no need stress ma sef to beat am. I actually have other measures I use, a child is child, we know how to handle them without beating.

Sixix:

You think you all did but sorry you all didn't. Violence always leaves a scar and it is transferable. It will manifest when you least expected it.

However individuals differ

Davidbanky:


I think it depends, when u giver birth to a child around mushin, Oshodi and the rest, mhen, u got to flog o, cos as the area is having a negative influence which I assure you will, the Cain will serve as the corrector ... Lol
