Hello nairaland family Before I begin let's define toddlerhood; Toddler: 1-3 years. Preschooler: 3-5 years. School-aged: 5-12 years. Teenager: 13-18 years. Is it necessary to start flogging toddlers?? I married a yoruba man And I noticed his sisters like flogging their kids including their toddlers. I'm not used to seeing little children being flogged not to talk of toddlers and I get this cringe feeling when I see it. Is it a cultural thing? Is that how the whole tribe Is like? Does flogging a child actually make him or her better  Or is it not just child abuseI do feel somehow seeing people flogging 2yr old, 3yr old kids. I feel somehow. What do you guys think 14 Likes 4 Shares |

There's no injustice worse than beating a child. Whoever hurts a child will suffer the consequence(s). There are other ways to discipline a child than torture. 46 Likes 3 Shares |

Every child or in this case a toddler has their own size of cane and the way you use it on them is different from the way you use it on child above that age. If you don't start on-time to correct a child or toddler, it may be difficult to correct them when they grow. 207 Likes 12 Shares |

What I don't understand is why you made it a tribal thing, let's hope it doesn't get to FP, the ethnic warriors will so derail your thread ehn. As for the topic, I don't support flogging under 3 year olds, correcting yeah,discipline when they misbehave yeah but not flogging with cane or any other thing. Thats the time you instruct, do this, don't don't don't do that. 16 Likes 2 Shares |

No, disciplining a toddler should not involve flogging. In as much as some Nigerians do "glorify" the beatings (some qualifies as near murder as brutality was normalized) they received as children (personally, I regard it as unhealthy coping mechanism), we need to ask how that has manifested in the adults we have in Nigeria today. Oyibo dey spoil pikin, na the same spoilt pikins who become adults they manage their countries and many Africans with the severe beatings as children, are the ones queueing up at the embassy for Visa to those countries. 37 Likes 2 Shares |

For me 'cane' hasn't yielded better results than 'words' used by the whites. All the areas we were flogged growing up , the whites tend to be doing much better. Areas like punctuality, hygiene, sincerity, not-stealing, Truthfulness, avoiding unnecessary noise making, avoiding unnecessary begging, orderliness, etc... the whites are performing better than us. Beating makes us see virtues as punishments 36 Likes 6 Shares |

The flogging of a thing is a culture forced on us by years of slavery. You will find it all over Africa but nowhere else. Not like Oyinbo no dey spank kids o but we go dey flog pikin like theif till he/she is 17 sef. Growing up, dem flog me die from house and school. It only made me more rugged because I'm not a cow. 28 Likes 4 Shares |

No it's not. Toddlers go through a hard time trying to figure out themselves, the world and their emotions. Not all they do should be taken seriously. Some of us expect too much from them. To correct them, tell them what they did is wrong and punish the behavior by taking away something they like for a short period of time, when you can get their attention, tell them the right way to behave. Reward good behaviour, punish bad behaviour but not by flogging. The moment kids reach 5 years, the flogging can begin. 28 Likes 5 Shares |

I do flog to correct my ward, I rarely flog but if I do my ward have provoked and frustrated me. Flogging should be act of correcting a child not to cause body harm or pshycological effects on the child. You want a legit, trustworthy and reliable data merchant? See my flyer 3 Likes |

I'm a strong advocate of corporal punishment but never for toddlers. Only a sadistic person would do that. A sharp word or a good spank on the bottom should suffice. 14 Likes 1 Share |

Some parents overdo things, instilling fear and discipline is required for parenting, the advice is don't flog a child when you are very angry, use the cane only when you are totally in control of your emotions. Flogging a toddler is not necessary but sometimes you can smack them gently on their bum with a strict angry face as a way of correcting them and they will get the message 3 Likes 1 Share |
