Unnerve: Ahhh, she's a drama queen that girl. I laughed so hard when I watched that 'calm down' video because he reminded me so much of her. I was shocked when I found out it was an act . . she was barely 5 then. I never knew children that age could be so manipulative. May God help us with them . . . Amen! 1 Like 1 Share |

UjuJoan2: I am glad you see spanking as the last resort. I have found a thread here today where people narrate stories of the punishment they received from their parents during childhood. Go through this thread and maybe you will better understand why I am alarmed whenever I see a child cry and beg like the boy did. I can't stand the sound of it and I won't apologize for it. |

realtalk19: Fear is a wrong teacher. It can achieve you your goal of getting compliance but it can mess up or warp the mind of your child. Most Nigerian parents use the line, "my parents beat me and I still turned out great" to justify child abuse or using violence to train their children. If you all turned out great as being touted Nigeria wouldn't have been this bad, unruly and ill--trained as a nation. 1 Like 1 Share |

I was just laughing throughout ,Its only someone who hasn't raised or lived with children that would find the video unusual. They can be so dramatic. Would I record my child displaying such -Yes Would I upload on SM - nope This one is not abuse at all. 1 Like |

I'm a mother and I do spank my kids when necessary but.... I couldn't watch that video for long, the way the kid was crying uncontrollably made me feel like crying. Call me emotional, putting out a video like that was all shades of cringyyyy. Well what do I know my fellow Nigerians say he has has blown all thanks to the video!! 1 Like |

Hathor5: That video protray some of the reasons, why Nigerians can't protest and fight for their rights. Most Nigerians were intimidated by their parents during the growing up stage and so, fear has sticked to their minds. 1 Like 1 Share |

Usorohtheman: They celebrate the boy for 'speaking up' and negotiating his way out of the punishment but at the same time refuse to get rid of disciplining methods that silence children. I put speaking up in quotation marks because they boy is begging and pleading and not really encouraged to speak up. |

lilioj: The last thing I would think of is to take out my phone to make a video when my child is in such an emotional state. |

When people will know that lady did a despicable thing is if she want to migrate to a sane environment or got an international post e.g. UN. Just reference that video and that's the end. Look at them celebrating child abuse proudly. Where has this training landed Nigeria and Nigerians? U have been using this method donkey years, it hasn't produced the desired effect, so why continue? And it's ladies that are championing this abomination Grow up and see that the world have left you all behind. |

I don’t find the video funny and I don’t know why the video went viral. From the outside looking in its cringeworthy a mother will video a child in distress but we have to know it’s only the mother that knows if the child is really in distress. Some children are extremely dramatic that distress to an outsider is what the mother faces daily. While I will never video my child and post on social media, I think it’s a stretch to say the child is abused without knowing the child. For the person that referenced abroad and visa etc even a welfare worker will not jump to conclusions, he/she will interview neighbors, family, teachers etc. I remember when social services was called on me because my child always came to school distressed and looked like someone that just finished a crying bout. My child absolutely hated breakfast, she would start crying once she sees you dishing the food. Now that she’s grown it’s a running joke how she would have been in foster care now. 4 Likes |
