who told u they attend birthday party

oga that doesnt mean they dont socialize, do you monitor them when theyre at school during break and leisure hours?

dont they go and play with other kids?

so are you gonna block their ears when the noisy Marlian neighbours decides to crack the neighbourhood with Zlantan and Naira Marly on their decible kings bass home thearter?

the only best thing you can do is to change the enviroment they're growing up in and limit their social exposure (which is a very dificult task in this modern computer age)

Oga find somthing else they would pick up interest in.

hahaha it's a serious issue but I can tell you even if they don't listen to it on the house their mates will sING it to their ears ....train them in the way the should go let them know the difference of what is good and bad not just hiding it smack then if need be but not all the time .talk to them listen to good songs along with them sing along I tell u they will follow your lead.

Lol, format their memories. If you are Christian, play gospel songs in the house, there are gospel songs for children too. I remember growing this way till today no interest to deliberately listen to secular songs and even when others play it around me, I am irritated and it doesn't stick.

This is true...it works.

CANDYDADDY:
My Two adorable daughters at age of 5 and 10 years have being cramming up what I thought to be immoral songs lately.

One of them sang Naira Marley's 'Opotoyi' when she was doing house-chore this morning.

I have almost put all my electronic gadgets on parental lock just for them not to be carried away by immorality.

One of them is even singing 'Omo oni di rabata', I almost beat the hell out of her.

Have bought them various educational song CDs and all sort of things

Help!

this is what I did with my kids;
1. Don't recharge ur DStv or gotv, jus buy them cartoon CDs they like. My kids only watch DStv at they granny's place and I am always there to censor
2. If u live in a public housing, please try move out to a place where they won't mix up with other kids, until they come off age. The kids in the neighborhood can influence them more than u can ever imagine.
Isolate ur kids so u can mold the way u want

Lemme ask you a question. ..How did you arrive at the conclusion that the kids attend birthday parties?

I just used birthday parties as a general term. It may be school parties a as well. Their parents may allow them to all them to watch all thsee nigerian music stationa too like hiptv and Co. Also maybe inside the car.

I don't listen to radio. I rather play tape inside the car. I don't watch Nigerian music stations so mine can't tune to it as well eve when I am not around. Then in school functions, they don't play Nigerian gbedu except Christian music because parents don't allow it. Finally we don't go to any form of parties.

Children learn very fast these days. One day my daughter came home and she was singing Olamide shakiti Bobo at age 4 or so And. She was even raising her legs. I was curious to ask her and she said a girl in her class was singing it and showing them the moves. I had to tell her it's bad song and discussed with the teacher the following day

So if they don't pick it from home then check out other environments

Nothing bad in watching dstv. If you don't tune to some stations, you kids won't go there. If you are frequent there, they too will be there

We don't watch all these Africa magic stations so my daughter won't go there at all. She watches only her carton networks. I watch zeeworld and if I am not there and my program starts she will ask if I am watching if I tell her no, immediately she changes back to hers.

So what we watch or listen to also matters to them

CANDYDADDY

For it to sink deep, you too must not listen to them. It is like telling your kids not to watch porn but you have videos galore on your phone. They will at best just feel you want them to exercise restrain when dealing in sexual matters.

Call them and talk to them. Ask them questions that reach the heart?

The 10 year old is close to puberty. Have you given her some sex education (Deut 31:12) The Law contained matters relating to sex and the kids were also to listen. If you don't teach her, she will learn outside

Ask her what does she think the songs mean? She might be clueless. You can explain to her, reaching her heart all the time by asking probing questions.
You can ask that if a song is encouraging loose sex, does she realize that loose sex can lead to unwanted pregnancy? It can lead to abortion. It can lead to her getting raped. Show her what Ephesian 4:29 says. That if a rotten word must not pass through her mouth, must it pass through her hears?

Tell her what the female organ is. Tell her the proper word for it and she must never use vulgar words for it. You can also warn her of sexual predators. Tell her no one is ever to play with her private parts. That anyone (adult really but some kids are....) who attempts to, she should tell the person to stop. If the person said it is our little secret she should say no. She will report them to her parents if they don't stop (That normally sends the paedophile into a panic). Ask her if anybody has ever played such with her. Inform her that if someone played such game and she did not report the person, you will be angry with her and you will not be her friend. That if someone does something bad or painful to her, she should tell you that you love her. That if she does not tell you, the person will do it again!

school end of the yr party nko

You must be careful not to injure these little ones, so you don't end up in jail and they then would have a filled day to sing. You have to correct children in love; you also most have been naughty while growing up but your parents didn’t injure you, that is why you are here today. I don’t like excessive force while correcting a child and besides the world has changed from the one you grew up in, you have to be proactive with the way you deal with issues nowadays.

So where did they hear it from?

THEN WHY ARE YOU COMPLAINING TO US?

sir my family is diffrent from 'one'

y'all failed to observe the Op's signature and see that his kids are following suit gradually. the apple didn't fall too far from the tree.

I traveled down to Edo state few weeks ago.

Went out to get something when I heard girls of about 10 to 16 singing and dancing to one song I don’t know the singer but I could hear them shouting “body fineee, toto sweeeeet”


They really emphasized on the “toto sweet”

What is happening to Nigerians and it’s parenting system?

That's how you know it's Edo state ooo world center of Italian hustle

skentelelady:
Why locking gadget when they still attend birthday parties where they play such?? What do you and madam also listen too? So check well before you start to complain

it's not even about birthday parties...
It's because those songs are frequently played by the parents...

Be my dream wife.

A kid that will spoil will spoil. A kid that will not will not.
Raising a kid is never by strong hand or over discipline. It's makes them misstep the more. These days, it's only by the grace of God to raise a good kid.
Limit them from some certain things, always advice them on everything and finally pray for the grace of the almighty to lead them.

I was at a Christmas event and do u know what? They played no Christmas songs, but songs by Naira Marley and other crazy songs... Come and see the happiness in the faces of the parents... Trust me, being a parent nowadays is as tough as life itself

Saw children dancing "party after party" at living faith Christmas party.
We are running from the world and the church isn't helping matters.

lilmax:

Hahahahaghaha.
Werey re oooohhhhh

You really didn't need to beat her though, you could have simply told her never to sing that song again. I mean didn't you yourself sing naughty songs when you were young, i'd like to think you turned out okay despite that, am i right?

CANDYDADDY:


who told u they attend birthday party

Locking up electrical devices, locking them up at home, almost beating the hell ouy of one of them will not curb the love for those trashy songs.
You need to sit them down and patiently explain why such songs are not welcomed in your house.
Often, the forbidden looks very attractive and children are very curious. They'll always find their way to it. Even if they don't go out to party, their mates sing it at school. So patiently remind them every time you hear them sing it, till it sticks to their subconscious. You'd be shocked how powerful the human mind can be.

Been over protective has it own negative effects as time goes on

I think the church nowadays is only making rebels instead of soldiers... The church is no more a solace for a sinner running from sin, it's become the home of sin itself

For you to lock gadget, it means you listen or have those songs. They are o ly copying you.

Ban those songs all over the country




Problem solved

Very true one doesn't know where to run to

bigass123:
Truth be told, good parenting is increasingly becoming more difficult.
It takes a lot of discipline, commitment and close monitoring of your ward. You can control what they're exposed to within your house but what of when they get outside the house. The school, among friends even the church. They pick up stuffs from their peers.
May God help us in this generation

Rightly said...the whole idea is to keep playing your role as a parent as much as possible while praying and leaving the rest to God..
