The woman was the one that fell from sky. The woman's DNA, family history etc iare absent in the child's abi? She was born by vigin Mary abi? She no get bloodline or family?

It takes two people to have a particular child. Traditional marriage and every other bloody event are [b]formalities[/b] that doesn't add or remove the fact that it takes two human to have a child. They have equal right over the seed that flows from both of them.

The child cannot have two mothers. Any mother that cares about her child will not remarry a man that does want a child to be with his mother. To hell with stupid roof, house and other stupid rubbish that doesn't mean shit!!!
You call traditional marriage bloody formalities?

I don't have any other thing to say

A child belongs to his parents. It took two people to birth a child. In the absence of the father, the father's family has no right to take over the child unless the mother wishes or is incapable of taking of the child. If she likes, let her marry a million times. It is her child. That child is a relative to everyone else.
Let me ask you a question. Why is traditional marriage done? Even before churches sanction you for a wedding, traditional marriage is done.

A man owns the children according to traditional marriage. The man came out from somewhere, a family or bloodline brought him to the world, he didn't fall from heaven. So the man and his offspring all belong to the same bloodline.

Woman going to marry another man cannot bring another man s children under the new husband, that's why the guys people talked to the new husband, and he clearly understood and saw reason with them.
And his dads family are taking good care of him till his teenage years. He is representing his father in that family history.



My case is totally different from this case.

...and the difference between that and seizing is what?
Its different. Because the child belongs to the man. He paid the bride price. So its his offspring. But as long as woman is not married to another man, she can keep the baby or children, but once she remarries the children becomes the mans peoples own.
I know a friend of mine it happened to his brother. The guy died when his wife was 7 months pregnant. The guys family continued taking care of her and the child, but a rich man saw the girl and wanted to marry her, but she wanted to go with her son. The family talked and explained everything to the rich man, and the man gave the girl ultimatum to chose between being his wife OE following her son. Of course she choose marriage. Today that child is a teenager, very well cared for by the mans family,

chalantmike:
Really, because of political correctness, that's why girls misbehave ?. Do you know why the term sexual assault is very broad and 80% of the home training methods used here in Africa, especially Nigeria would fall under some sort of abuse ?.

Prostitute are women with daughter issues, or early age of sexual or emotional assault, it's a well established psychological fact.

The kind of girl that becomes a prostitute tomorrow, that is what using the rode produces, cause that is an assualt not love.

The kind of girl, that is brainwashed into believing a man/boy is more better than her, more valued grows up needy for a mans attention, love that her father cannot give.

All those girls you are referring did not spring up from a emotional stable, mature loving environment. I actually bet you that.

Lemma ask you this.
- putting pepper in a girls private part, does it take the urge away ?.
- do you count sexual urge as something humane or something abnormal ?.

- if no, and you think it is human, isn't learning to control it, embarrassing it as something natural rather than embarrassing a better fit ?.

-how is pepper and flogging a way of controlling this urges.

-in this scenario, everybody me included keep hammering, please where is the boy ?, It's not like she was using a cucumber.

What the man did is not out of love, plan and simple. It is out of insecurity and hatred, he's probably feeling vulnerable so he is lashing out on his daughter. In his mind he feels defiled so he is defensive. He thinks having a girl child I'd weakness, and his weakness has been exposed. He literally feels like he just got screwed sexually, and men pride themselves as men, they hate that feeling, cause their ego is invented in that idea " I do the screwing".
Aunty all these you are quoting is just academic exercise. The man flogging his daughter I believe is an American from the video. Not even an African.


Talking about home training failing, is because children are no longer disciplined like in previous times that's why young women are messing up and bringing shame nowadays


Talking about girls brainwashed, but that's how majority of women are raised in our society. That's our culture. Very minute or insignificant number are doing otherwise. Even with exposure to Western education, majority of our women are still raised to play the rightful role as responsible future wives and mothers. And I don't see it changing even in the future because that's our African way of life



Why emphasis is laid on the girl child is because the proper building of future homes and saner societies rests on her. That's how my sisters were raised and they are doing well in there husbands homes even with all there education (2 are medical doctors) and that's how I also plan to raise my daughters, to go and be good wives to there husbands, because that is our norms and values


I believe the major reason our societies is turning into something else is because many parents are failing in there duties of raising well behaved children because of NP proper discipline again.
The father was very right to flog her. He would have used cane to drive the lesson into her head very well

Her choice ?, Suffer the repercussions at 12 years old?.
Didn't watch the video, speaking generally on the scenario and comments.

Children born of this generation are generally more intelligent and curious than, the previous generation. Has something to do with a higher IQ.
Sex to her at that age is probably, an act of curiosity, than a decision she enjoys. She's probably curious about her body and the act. While she might be curious as a result of a better generational IQ, her parents have better life experience, which they should guild her with.

For example, even when she manages to fathom out what sex is, she'd probably have no idea on HIV, pregnancy and definitely not how to avoid them.

This is where her parents comes in.

By not sparing the rode, he created an environment where is can not ask questions, cause in her mind, sex is bad and daddy will beat me.

Probably right now a neighbor has been sexual like abusing her, or an uncle doing things to her, how is she gonna ask, report after the dad did all that ?.

The father himself, is probably a backwards person who evaluates a woman's worth based on her virginity or sexuality.
Right now, his looking down on his daughter, cause to him, she has lost her flower, the word flowers with regards to a woman's sexuality should be offensive.

He is subconsciously communicating all this negative notions and impression on his 12 year old daughter, whose only fault is been curious. It's not like she sat down, decided that sex is a sin and decided to sin.
You are just sounding politically correct.
Do you know that girls caught in past times misbehaving asexually, there mothers ground pepper and smeared it on there private part. Then in this modern times its flogging belt you are talking about.

That girl I saw in that video is still a kid
The dad did the right thing
He should have even used cane to discipline her

Its because of political correctness today that many young women are turning into something else. We are raising a terrible generation.

Any girl child caught in such act should be severely dealt with.

Oga, at the tender age of 12, he was lucky to have caught his daughter having sex, some girls start early or are sexually abused and can't tell anyone about it.

That was an opportunity to Foster an intimate relationship with his daughter, as well as guild her on such matters, and he has missed it, by using the rode, because nao she's going to be having sex in secret, hidding her flaws from her parents, flaws her parents are the right person to help her with, catching this things in time, would spare her a devastating future.

This is how Nigerians ruin their lifes and those of their children, guilt. He is only reacting that way because he is conscious and guilty of the same act, it is that hatred towards his self, the act he is festering and transferring that aggression on his daughter not love, that act does not come from love, it comes from hatred and guilt.
Did you even watch the video?
That man ain't a Nigerian
His accent sounds American
The man did the right thing
If she want let her be doing it codedly after chopping the beating.
That one na her life
She will be the one to suffer the repercussion when she grows up. If she continues in that life

I didn't reason it that way that someone close to you is passing through difficult situation and you know the person is hardworking and you give him and his wife money to continue their business and the man is trustworthy. Along the line the Alhaji that he paid money to in order to supply him loads disappeared with the money. Both my money and other money that he borrowed from people. And he has been doing business with the Alhaji for one year and no complain. It wasn't my fault that I tried to help. They have all promised to pay me back when they get to their feet but it has not been easy.
Bro I am telling you from experience.
I used to be like you. But I learnt bitter lesson. I have lost millions, almost everything I had.
People are not what they seem to be.
They will take advantage of your soft nature. So I understand you.

But that's not how life is lived.
I help people financially still, but I don't borrow people money. Rather I dash those in need according to my capacity. But to borrow someone money, I don't try that.

I believe life is training you to get wiser.
Learn to guard your money. Doesn't stop you from helping people in need, but to borrow people money, don't ever make that mistake again. Be wise
FamilyRe: How Does It Really Get To This Stage In Marriage?? by djon78(m): 6:27pm On Jul 10, 2019
The major issue is human nature.
The truth be told average humans are very selfish, self centred and lacks the capacity for real true love.
What most humans call love is not love.
It is just more of a feeling, most times based on physical leaning and sensual passion which most times burns out with time.

True love is a spirit it is not physical
It supersedes/superior to human feelings and passions
True love is not selfish and self centred, it considers the other persons feeling.
Men and women that have this understanding of what love is meant to be do have good marriage.

I didn't give him to hold and sell for me. I gave him to go and show his friend that was in another town to see and buy and I was busy that day cos I would have fone with him. We bargained on the phone and the person agreed to pay the next day. On his way coming back was when the car caught fire.
The people I gave loan to were people that I thought could pay back as at that time and circumstances beyond them made them not to pay back. So am like why am I not lucky when dealing with people? Even people I never expected to fail still fail me
You don't borrow people money, you are not bank. Most people don't pay back when you borrow them.
See making money is not easy, you are meant to. Jealously guard the one you have.
Learn to be very wise with your money. Life has not thought you lesson the hard way that's why you will be dashing people money anyhow.

FamilyRe: Men Are Loved On The Basis Of How Well They Can Provide. by djon78(m): 7:13pm On Jul 08, 2019
Its a mans duty to provide for his family. If you are worried, try to at least the one that appreciates your effort and sacrifices as a man.
Naturally men are wired to hustle and take proper care of there wife and children. It also gives the man more control.

Not everyman even fancy a woman with a lot of money except if she has very good character and qualities. Its not a must a woman should have money but the best wives are those ones that will encourage you, comfort, support you. Those ones are the best wives. It is not always about money.
I have a dude that was pursuing a venture like that, a point came he wanted to give up, but his wife was his only encourager and support. She so much believed in him, more than he even believed in himself. At last, he broke through and became a massive success. He always owes his success to his jewel of a wife.

So dude look for women that are appreciative and encouragers, they are around you. Those ones can make life sweet for you. Materialism doesn't move them.
Avoid materialistic money conscious women. Those ones are no no. They are only in it for what they get. They are your worst enemy. Very big danger they are.
Christianity EtcRe: Christianity In Nigeria: Irrelevance Looms by djon78(m): 5:09pm On Jul 07, 2019
Duggedised12:
In summary, because Islam permits marrying 4 wives in rotation, they are more at an advantage interms of population, as one Muslim man can have 70 children.

Also fake and unfocused pastors are making people backslide ,thereby making the relevance of Christianity decrease.
I believe the main issue with Christianity in Nigeria is more about ideological leaning.
Many churches are losing there impact, there might be so much crowd, but lives are not truly touched.
For example look at the impact Hillsong Australia, some leading Evangelical preachers in America, preachers like Joseph Prince are making around the globe. When you look at them you see genuine honesty and truth truly in there lives. But take a look at churches in Nigeria and you will see so much dishonesty and a lot of things muddled up.

And the younger generation are seeing these things., many of them are losing there faith, which is a future danger for Christianity in Nigeria. The writer is right from human standpoint, although from God's standpoint, God will begin to raise up sound ideological preachers away from what we have now.
RomanceRe: I Just Broke Up - Aussieplayboy by djon78(m): 1:57am On Jul 07, 2019
Still trying to get the sense of this article but my observation are these;

Women are attracted and respect men of purpose

Also don't suck up to a woman
.
Be your real self, say your mind, don't be a respecter of person

Women also respect a man who knows where he is going, a leader that can give her direction, she can look up to for sound counsel/advice

In being real, show your vulnerable side sometimes, that you are still human not a robot. Because if you become too mechanical, you are becoming a zombie or robot.


If you exhibit these traits, you can get a woman with sense, wise and smart( which is a good plus to your life, because wise and smart woman can add great value and help you to build your life. But I mean smart ones not brain dead ones, which are disasters to a mans life

Thanks so much. Please make it louder. Chinese in Malaysia have been discriminated against so much yet they earn more money than ethnic Malays. Same Malaysia kicked out Singapore (which is predominantly composed of ethnic Chinese), yet Singapore picked up and became more developed and richer than Malaysia today. Same Singapore was occupied by the Japanese, yet that didn't hinder them from progressing and being best buddies with today's Japan. Same Japanese enslaved and committed heinous atrocities against Koreans yet that didn't stop the Koreans from advancing and being a major trading partner with Japan. Yet again, same Japanese committed atrocities in China but the Chinese did not allow that slow their development. Today, China is Japan's biggest trading partner.

If after more than 400 years, some people still blame slavery (whereas every race has once been under slavery), then they are deluded!
I beg to disagree, slavery of blacks in America lasted for over 200 years. I used to say the same thing you said until I did exhaustive research on black American slavery, and I can tell you that no set of people have suffered worse things than they suffered. The Asians never suffered such not even the Jewish suffering during Holocaust comes close.

What did not suffer;

Only one sets of rags for an entire year called clothes
The children were not given clothes till adulthood except rags for covering
No shoes, they walked barefoot even during winter
They work in the plantation from 5am till late night, no rest
The food they were worse than animals food

When the British abolished shipping of slaves from Africa They were now being bred like animals, where one man is locked up with plenty women to impregnate them.

there was no family unit a mother, child or father can be soled off any time because they were possession that counted for nothing

Very many atrocities were committed on this people, it will be too long to list them all out

And it has affected subsequent generations

It is even we African countries you should be comparing to the Asian countries that we gained independence same period but are well advanced than Africa.
We never suffered anything, we were allowed free reign to rule ourselves but nothing to write home about. A very shameful set of people.
Black Americans are even better off, at least they are forever Americans. But our own people run away from Africa to experience a bit of progress.

People will come online and be arguing.

God prospers and blesses people.
Joshua 1 vs 8, Psalm 1 vs 2 to 3 talks about God prospering his own.
But on another side it is not to worship money.
The major problem is that blacks are too materialistic because of poverty mindset.
So they pursue money, worship money and look down on those that don't have.

Money I believe is for solving problems, blessing humanity and also living comfortably.
I say it again, poverty is an African thing, poverty of the mind. That's why we have leaders with poverty of the mind, rich people with poverty of the mind. And pastors that follow in the same footsteps. Look at our politicians, where else in the world do you see the mind of money wasted on politicians like Nigeria? Even US don't waste money on there politicians like here.
So it is a cultural thing.
Big man will oppress you. Politician will oppress you pastor will oppress you. All with there money, because money is worshiped in this society. Which is the foundation of underdevelopment in this Nation.

But does God bless? yes. Gods blessing is the best. Should someone accept lack? No. Everyone wants a better life. But the balance is to not worship money or Mammon, but you still want a better life as a human. That's the balance here.

Sometimes they want to come over for the hols, it used to bother me but now I'm used to it. They are responsible and don't cause any problems but I just don't like having people around.

Mostly poor girls like you have that ownership or entitlement mentality. Because you ain't used to such things. My mother is very independent she even supports her husband's family if any need arises or if she's being asked. Broke girls like you can't do such because you don't want your husband's money to finish but rich people don't care.

I don't see myself dating someone as horrible like you.
I'm exposed but when it comes to my family i go by the traditional way no matter what. You can't shut your entire family just because you're married.

If your marriage go sour where will you run to? Of course the same family who you abandoned because of dick.
Always know how to balance the scale, sometimes life may be hard on you the same family will support you and your kids which you want to abandoned all in the name of marriage.

They're some situations where the husband or the wife will get sick if either spouse can't handle it the next thing is to take him /her to the parents house.

Better be a good wife stop doing only me and my husband when e set you'll know the importance of family.

Ladies used to go for wrong reasons when it comes for marriage and that's why they are abused and disappointed.

A recent story between my wife' friend and options opened for her then.

The lady in question was 30 then, I intervened because my wife used to nag then that when guys slept wt her friend, they used to leave and on many occasions they will not even give her transport fare.
Meanwhile there was particular brother in my church that wanted to get marry then and he wasn't into any serious relationship. I told my wife to inform her friend about my intention of match making her with my church brother which she obliged, the guy is handsome, working in government establishment and also have his own job.
The guy as a xtian, intended to marry this lady without having premarital sex with her (don't forget she complained to my wife, which happen to be her closest friend, that guys used to leave her after sleeping with her)
She travelled down from other state to meet the guy in my apartment, when the two came, I introduced them to each other and advised them I latter left them to discuss one on one, the guy left that day and came back 3rd day for further discussion, to cut story short,
This lady refused to marry my church member just because he met one particular guy online. Even though there were handwritings on the wall that the guy would not marry her
The guy he met online has no job, not to talk of setting business for her, the guy ready to sleep with her immediately and with no plan of get married soon even though the girl in question was 30 yrs old then
Yet the lady blindly and foolishly followed online guy just because they came from same town while my church brother came from other state (that was excuse she gave my wife)


Today at age 32 she is still wandering in the wilderness of singleness,to God be the glory my church brother married with kid

NB she left my house and meet the online guy from different town, the guy impregnated her and denied the pregnancy, she later delivered still born baby
God delivered that your Church brother.
God would never allow him to marry her because she would have damaged his destiny.

Many of them grope in darkness
They can't see far. They can't see when good is coming
Because they judge by the look of things.
And any man that marries them, his destiny and future generations are damaged, except divine intervention.

This is too long and too mechanical

That's the problem we have with christiandom in Nigeria

You overcome by exposing yourself to God's word.

Bible said faith comes by hearing. Hearing God's word strengthens your spirit man to dominate your flesh.

You don't overcome your flesh by your own power. In fact your own power is no match to the flesh. But the flesh cannot stand God's power.

That's why you see people held for years prisoners to all manner of addictions, encounter power from God's word and they get transformed


Christianity is not mechanical
It is encounter with the life of God, Zoe.
Mechanical Christianity is more of the letter.

Paul said that the letter killeth but the spirit gives life

Jesus in John 6 said it is the spirit that quickens, the flesh profits nothing, the words is speak to you are spirit and life.


Mechanical Christianity is the reason there is so much noise around but no impact, no life changing encounter, no transformation in the life of many

David said in the Psalms oh taste and see that the Lord is good. Mechanical Christianity leaves you to dos and fonts. But there is more to Christianity it is not dos and donts but enjoying the sweetness of God's very life and very nature.
