I almost misunderstood your post. I thought you were trying to say the dad doesn't have the right to beat her.


Let me mention here that I'm only lucky to have disciplinarians such as this as parents. My dad will beat me and my mum will be supporting him, same when my mum beats me with Amala stiring rod, broom.. any beating material in sight, my dad will be right there by her side... . This shaped myself and everyone of my siblings into moralists.

Even while I was a student and under terrible influence, the home training made me unpredictable and kept me alive and now doing well.

I think a more stringent law should be in place, for those who just snap/record and upload people's actions without their consent.
I am more angry with whoever uploaded that video.

IamPatriotic:
The person that recorded it is a fool and the person who uploaded it on sm is a compound fool and a complete idiot! What do they intend to achieve by being stupid.


N.B: I don't with parents disciplining their children, but of what essence bringing the video to social media platforms?

luminouz:


Good. Was the dad excessive in that video?

this is the way most of us were brought up and we turned out to be good people for ourselves and our family so its not about the fact that she’s 18 its about not making mistakes you should be making in ur 20s and 30s in ur teen age so you won’t ruin your life. As you get older the discipline reduce and it’ll get to a point your parents won’t even caution you anymore.

luminouz:


Lol...I still prefer the African model to the american model. It shaped my life and that of my siblings and many on this platform. The vices you mentioned are clearly testaments to the fact that those people were not raised right. No child has a mind of his/her own except what she/he has been taught to love/hate. Reason why child soldiers and book haram thrive in the North.

But no system is perfect,so there will be flaws. I dont see you suggesting the alternative model since 'we have to try something different'

Hell, even the japanese with strict upbringing still commit suicide.

Your last paragraph applies to every people from every continent,no just Africa.

Ohizman73:
who told you my mother had repeatedly told me. Even if we grow as tall as palm trees it doesn't stop her from disciplining us even if we don't do right. And till tomorrow even as adults we dare not do wrong. As my parents would not hesitate to discipline us. They used the rod unsparing. And that mounded is upright. And such values of morality and hardwork they imparted to us, we took to our adult lives.the dress code they imparted on my sisters is what they imbibed. That is why I wonder on the module of dressing of gals today , which they wear out from their parents home. My and their mothers don't give a hoot about that. Just as we boys have to dress decently no sagging or rugged jeans asuch. Not to talk of wearing dread or punk hair styles. Just as habits of drug use age or what ever were never dreamt of .all norms being exhibited today is as a result of failed parentage, nothing else. The flogging given to that girl reminded me of the style my father used on us when we went astray. My mum was always by his side to that effect to the very last.it is very sad of the decadence exhibited by youths today which basis lies on poor parentage. Most of the street urchins did not fall from the sky , they were born by people who failed tin their responsibility to mould them into good citizens.

Absolute crap.

A short story
A child does bad
Public: leave em he/she is still a child

A child becomes an adult, does more bad
Public: dont touch em, he is an adult, just advise and pray

Adult commits felony
Public: blames the parents for pampering the child
Moral lesson:public is a hypocrite

onadana:


Yes.As you get older the discipline reduces.Well said.Brought my son up without sparing the rod.Now he is a teenager. I do more of talking.

david22uu:


you that your dad told to leave here ... with all the flowing did you hear word?

luminouz:


Out of point because you included politicians and the police. The police do their job and likewise politicians are elected. Cultism and herdmen killings are societal banes,so I'd address them

Cultism and herdsmen violence is directly related to failed parentage/upbringing. Inculcating strong moral values early in life had always helped African children.

If you still feel otherwise, train your kids the way you want but dont barge on that man who corrected his daughter,his way. Some of us were corrected that way and we turned out better, morally. I still maintain my stand that children are meant to be trained and moulded right with core values that upgrade,not degrade the society. Sometimes,these training might be verbal but other times,a good smacking to drive the point home will also do the job.

Father of the yea mehn!! That lady could possibly be a Nland feminist!

More of fathers like this will drastically reduce the rate of social media hoes, misandrist and feminists in the society.

This is what Bobrisky's father lacked!

Kudos to the man!
A real African DAD!

God bless the man. I pray we have more fathers like him. Do you know how many girls have got into trouble and died because of social media?

A 14 year old girl recently left home and stayed with a boy in a hotel. When he was done with her, his friend took over.

If parents can discipline their children the way this man did, the society will be better

Farki:


Are politicians and police not part of the society? Shouldn't the beatings have shaped them into not stealing public funds or harassment, extortion and unlawful killings of civilians?

All this talk about "moral values" yet Africans especially Nigerians are a global laughing stock known for corruption, stagnation and barbarity.

The global black community can keep deceiving themselves but the result is clear, this doesn't do jack anyone who thinks Africans have better morals than anywhere else is plain and simple deceiving themselves.

The same Africans will still run to the "less moral" countries because they know they will get their salaries on time and won't be killed for rituals.

If you replace "daughter" with "wife" watch as everyone here turns on the man and insults him because usual flogging is not done out of a desire to correct but because the person doing it wants to vent his anger on something.

magicminister:


Thanks for being respectful!
Often times, when i engage peope here, they resort to insult and personal attacks.
So, probs to you!

While i am not against using the rod in cases of extreme misconduct, i still maintain that the punished meted in that video does not fit the misdeed.
Her only "crime" was not heeding to the words of her parents. That can easily be corrected by withdrawing privileges.
Take away the phone, take away the laptop and see if it will not have a humbling effect.

luminouz:


Wrong.

I still dont agree with you,so long I and many other African kids turned oung or anyone


Conclusively, the African model of child upbringing has helped to mould kids lives in the right way. I'm a living proof so i will train my kids with loving BUT firm hands. Once you give birth to yours, do whatever hommie.

Have a nice day.

tollyboy5:

I'll still try to follow the argument gently but I must reply this. I believe people don't think beyond the walls of their knowledge . thats the problem of black man. Whenever they talk about awoken black, many don't really understand this concept that these are people who's mentality has almost total revolution . we talk of slave mentality I guarantee you that many africans has that mentality.
The way people see African mode of decipline children its not because its actually working or its right. They been brought up to believe the system and it won't be easy to rethink the whole matter. They'll always see the positive result of such decipline.
Its more like telling someone who grew up has a Christian that he should know about kemet science which should belong to Africa not the British Christianity, such person would see you has a devil incarnate even though you show enough reason why not to be a christian.
Now it not because both party are wrong but there is an already embedded mentality that can't be changed. Thats just how it is for African style of decipline, many thought they've achieved a lot because their parent where deciplinarian.
I once lived with my dads uncle and I was massively deciplined. If I spend most of my life with them I would okay by now working in a good company and start thanking them for all the decipline I received . but thing are not rosy for me because I actually left their place back then. But I'll tell you , I'm more exposed to reality presently and I see many potentials killed by our African style of upbringing, children are not expose to pursuing goals everything is about having nice family and giving back to parents. Such African mentality and mode of upbringimg is the cause of our blind leaders , Internet fraudstar , almost all ladies in this country are poor with little or no vision in life.
If such decipline favor some children it should be just ℅10 of them. Im not against flogging in this kind of matter, what I'm saying is , we were being brought up in a way that'll be needing to be caned. Seizing the phone would have been a better option

They are no better. We have senseless, irresponsible and unreasonable people all over the world. It is not lack of spanking that makes one reasonable.
