MrBrownJay1:
today flogging a child is considered abuse, even though majority of us are great human beings today because of these same "abuse"... so make sure that you A) have kids with a woman who follow your school of thought and B) live in a country where flogging is allowed-

no wonder kids in the UK (and all over the world) are now out of control!

techbroX:
Well, it seems more like abuse than beating cos he was reported to have beaten his kid with a "metal stick."

At the same time, the mother and the child should be ready to take care of themselves without the husband because that man may not forget that incarceration... It's not gonna be easy to reconcile after 3 years in prison.

webcrafty:

Check well my man. The most people making UK function today are foreigners/immigrants not the "knife wielding youths they are breeding".

Reference:


Cannot agree more.

Fear, coercion and the threat of violence has always been the glue that held most African relationships of every kind together. From marriage to parenting, from work to politics, leadership to public service. Its always the stick.

The problem is that fear can only take you so far. It can buy short term loyalty but cannot spur independent reasoning and the liberty that fuels aspiration and creativity. You have tons of families here where children are bred like one trick ponies.

The Nigerian man, before he was jailed for three years, had told the London court that his action was a move to instil standards in his son.

Flogging is punitive, destructive and barbaric. It never yields any positive result but instill fear and forced submission.
Furthermore, there are better ways and methods for correction

Shut up,

Try travel out from you village 1st

cococandy:
Clearly the hospital reported the man not the wife.
All healthcare workers are mandatory reporters. If you suspect abuse you’re required to report it.
The bruises on him required them to report it.

Unless you’re saying the mom shouldn’t have taken the boy to the hospital. What if he’d died? Then y’all would have still blamed her for not taking care of her kid.

All the man had to do (if he’s so bent on physically punishing the kid) was to do it in a non violent way and not cause him bruises and injuries.

TUANKU:
That's why there's a shortage of primary school teachers in the UK, children with almost zero respect for adults.

Blitzking:

Omoh na to dey save beating come naija oo..just buy diary dey record am...when offence don plenty say junior we are going to Nigeria for you to "collect" once junior collect finish fly am back go youkay

Cmanforall:

Possible reason.
I've got a friend that said her pupil told her to shut up cos she was trying to correct her.

Imagine if na Nigeria

Ulunne777:
I used to do the disciplining before but when I noticed my kids tilting towards my husband and him even reporting them to me or asking them if I have seen what they did wrong,I stopped.


We must agree together on the punishment or watch them spoil together.

Stop reporting your kids misdemeanor to the other spouse.The parent present should trash it out or wait for joint punishment.
It potrays the discipliner wicked before the kids

Spot on

blaquemyc:
The bible they brought to us said "spare the rod and spoil the child".

matm:


They claim to be respecters of human rights.In other words, they claim to be more humane than God.
They accept and respect every thing that they feel make one happy like homo,Lesbianism, sex with animals, marriage with trees, nudity in public places, and lack of discipline of kids.
What a debauchery!!!
Africans need to take d gospel back to the whites.

Ireportlive:
Na why their kids are wayward

cococandy:
I don’t know the kind of beating you think will make a 15 year old who didn’t previously respect you to start respecting you. If the foundation is right, you won’t need to beat them at that stage

Ulunne777:
But the wife Sha.
If she didn't want the man to punish the child,why didn't she do the appropriate punishment instead of reporting to the husband.
It makes the man now look as the abuser whereas he was trying to instill"discipline" of course overboard in a woke country.She Still took him to hospital where they will see the strokes well instead of giving paracetamol.
A child you paid for online classes is playing computer games.

richmond500:
everybody is schooling in UK just to win an argument.
If it's an argument that involved Abuja, you will tell us you school in Abuja.
If it involves Borno, u will be schooling in Borno.

■ If 50% of Americans live in Nigeria, a lawless country, Nigeria would have ended a long time ago.
■ Laws and enforcements keep you in check, not necessarily home training.

one can be there all his life and still stick to a particular school of thought and way of life. this is what a discussion for an agreement would've revealed to his partner

NaBanga:
■ I hope immigration employees of Western countries read this website for nonsense. I don't even know where to start because most Nigerians do not understand how to treat people. You really think the child could have gone to school without the school noticing the abuse that occurred? What if the child had internal damage from all the metal rod beating? I won't even talk about emotional trauma because almost every Nigerian is suffering from such. I will say it again. Nigerians deserve every bit of suffering they get. Leave civilized people alone.

You missed the point. That's ok.

Montaque:
■ Are you talking about adults or kids? Because if you are referring to kids, they need to have fear of something as they don't understand certain things or their implication. For instance, I tell my son of 3 years not to touch a hot pressing iron or climb the railing at the balcony. I need not explain myself because he won't understand it now, he needs to fear my discipline so as not to fall or get burnt. He will understand in due time when he matures. If you have kids, you got no time to explain every instruction, and even if you do, they wont understand fully. There is something like exuberance in children, they always want to try out risky things. And its your fault if you let them. So yes, fear keeps us safe and is of good use in raising children.

ModCaller:
They learnt it from their parents

Kobojunkie:
1. Those 50% currently live in America and the country is doing better than Nigeria, so how did you arrive at this claim of yours?.

2. So, it isn't that children are raised to value and respect the law but rather that adults are kept in checked by their direct encounters with the law enforcement that leads to their being law abiding citizens? Has anyone assured you yet that you are a genius!
