achimendy:well noted.. you are right Like me o, I discipline my children, I flog when I have to, I scold, scream, beat, yell and talk calmly I do. Truly bringing up children in this era is truly difficult, it takes more than discipline but more wisdom, prayers and patience I |

achimendy:I I had a friend who was flogged and beaten for every mistake, yet she ended up in bar beach as a prostitute even with all the beatings and corrections. She got so used to the beatings that it meant nothing again to her. She would say, no be beating, I go chest am. My father hardly beat us his children while growing up and are very good children , raising up wonderful well behaved intelligent children. My dad did more of scolding and silent treatment and waking us up at midnight to scokd us. It didn't make us useless. Like I said life is about balance. If you beat a child to death and that child wants to be a rebel, he will even rebel against you in the grave 3 Likes |

achimendy:my brother when I said overlook, I meant in some things that are trivial. It is not everything you beat a child for. There are times that even mere words or scolding work better than beating or flogging. There should be a balance. I have a cane in my house and I still flog my children st times, but there are times you need to calmly talk to them to correct them. Life is all about balance. 2 Likes |

jaxxy:of course like the topic indicated unintentionally. And if you read through the post, you will see where I said he is playful and absent minded, but extremely diligent. For teenage boys that playfulness and being absent minded is part of them . But there is a balance which is that his good sides will make you forget about those bad sides, but it is worth mentioning though |

Once, I travelled to the village with my siblings for the holidays. I was 12 or thereabouts. We went visiting an old neighbor who carelessly gave us this very very sweet palmwine. I drank the whole cup that we were all supposed to sip from and boom! My eyes started spinning. The next thing was I entered a bush by the side cut out a long cane and started chasing everyone while shouting nzogbu nzogbu. My friends and cousins dragged me home and when my poor grandma came out because of the uproar in our compound because of me, I collected the cane forcefully from the cousin and flogged her. Later as I was told, my grandpa asked what happened and later lured me into the house, gave me a bath and gave me palmoil mixed with blended charcoal and I slept it off 3 Likes |

My oldest son emptied that biggest jar of Vaseline and the big container of Johnson's baby powder on an expensive white single couch his father bought for 250k some years back. The reason: he just gave the couch a bath and was rubbing it cream and powder. My husband's boys from his janitorial services company was called in to clean the couch, but even with the whole expertise and chemicals used, the Vaseline patches refused to fade off. Another one was my daughter that had to start school at age 1 year and 3 months, just 2 weeks to the close of school term. The school proprietress told my husband to leave it till the next term, but oga refused and promised to Even pay extra fees The reason: my first daughter went to kiss the eyes of my premature baby with ketchup in her mouth. .we initially thought it was blood coming out of the little premature baby's eyes. I was already crying because I had suffered so much on my premature twins, I didn't need more pressure. As I was crying not knowing what else to do, my older daughter looked at me and said " mummy I kish baby eye" it was at that point I realized it was ketchup and not blood. Infact she started school that day by 12pm without uniform or any thing for school. My husband just dumped her in school, said she even waved at him, and didn't send him or cry. By 1:30pm school closed and she came back home ;π€£π€£π€£ 123 Likes 12 Shares |

There are children that would just do things to provoke you, just like some of us did to provoke our parents, some unintentionally though. Like I have a son whom I love so much, but he can be playful and absent minded at times. I teach my children to do chores and they really do that without complaining. My youngest son is like the onion slicer whenever food is being cooked. He is fifteen and when his sisters run away from slicing onions, he will always play the role of the super man, even if it means him screaming and slicing the onions and shedding tears while doing so. Sometimes he even runs to the bathroom, wash his eyes and still goes back to continue π€£π€£ Last week he sliced scent leaves for me, and carefully arranged it in a plate. I carried the bowl of scent leaves and poured straight into the pot of stew without washing it and by the time I realized it, it was already cooking together with my stew. I called my son to confirm if he washed it and all he could say was "Eeewooo!". He said he thought he washed it. I said how could he have neatly arranged it in a ready to be cooked way without washing and he couldn't answer me. I was angry. Very angry. He is a diligent boy, always ready to help fix things in the house, but he is the type that will mistakingly pour sugar into a pot of soup, or if you ask him to cook noodles, would use all the pepper in the house and he will end up helping you to eat it, while telling you "sorry o, it wasn't deliberate" ., And probably offer to help cook another one with less pepper or get you something else.(He tries in cooking for his age though) If you have a child like that or you did that to your parents, let's share our experiences and laugh it out.
