Your Yoruba neighbor's kids are the representation of the whole Yoruba race? Imagine your assertion and conclusion.

Shame.

We're discussing your neighbor's kids, not me. Don't shift the goal post. Learn to have a decent conversation. Don't expect a response from me again.

Good day, fellas. Most Nigerian parents focus more on their children's education but ignore their children's moral behavior. E.g Greetings, respect, good manners etc. I'm really disappointed in some children these days.

In my own words what they are demonstrating towards their children is a dynamic hate from the pit of hell.
If one decide to itemize them ground go full.

This is the type of community training we all had while growing up. But today you dare not correct your next door neighbour's children from doing wrong thing... You will hear, leave my children alone, na you help me born them.

Our society is gone.

You're right, but not all child or children turn out well..that I know for a fact, hence if you're saying adhering strictly to the way of the lord, bro it does not guarantee that he or she will turn out well from others..no it doesn't

*Just my 2cents

BennyDGreat:
If you adhere strictly to the way of the Lord, they will turn out well and different from other kids.

A child raised up in the way of the Lord that didn't turn out well chose not to. He/she will face the consequence alone.

Raising a child in the ways of the Lord is the right way to go because it covers all aspect of discipline needed to produce a responsible child. That's why the Bible says, train up a child in the way he should go and when he grows, he will never depart from it.

Exactly my point too, a child or some children may decide not to abide by the teachings of the lord.

A mother shaking yansh up and down social media with the daughter... That's what you get when immoral children have grown to become parents

Them no fit buy iphone for them! They out of control

I tire o and it can be very annoying because while you are trying your best to train your child morally, they are mixing with the untrained ones due to laziness and lackadaisical attitude of their parents towards them.

. My Brother, most parents have failed in this regards. Imagine me seeing a 9 years old child of a neighbour who believes that God is not real, the second one that believes said he wants to be like God and create like him.

I now see the reason some parents dissuade their children from mingling with or playing with some children. Bad influence from corupt children or poorly upbring children is REAL. Formerly, i was against parents who tells their children not to mingle or play with some kind of children. I now see the deadly reasons.

bluestone2015:
Don't blame the parents, blame you and I who cajole people into marriage when we can see clearly that they are not prepared for it.
' your mates don marry '. This is part of the result and we will all suffer the consequences.

They need to talk to kids and admonish them whenever they do something wrong is very important. I'm majorly talking parents who notice some bad behaviours from their kids and still pamper them or ignore them.

TheFreshVanilla:
Their parents are also on Nairaland raining insults on one another. So, what do you expect.

I can't stop laughing

nautybride:
You don't give what you don't have.
I have seen badly behaved parents, what do you expect children to learn from them.
Check out some comments on this platform as a case study.

You have nailed it. Children would rather immitate than to take or follow your instruction.

Kay25:
It's not their fault when most of them are struggling financially it wouldn't be easy to check on your child's moral

But if they are observant, they will notice some negative behaviour from their kids and admonish them.

Sure but they ain't observant they are all engrossed in money and money

The annoying part is the over pampering. Not that it isn't good to pamper a child but not to the point that the child misbehaves and you ignore or refuse to instill discipline. Some years ago, while i was still teaching, i dealt with a child for playing while i was teaching and explaining something on the board. This boy reported me to his mum, his mum reported me to my headteacher telling her that her husband said that he would withdraw the child if that happens again. Omo, my headteacher sent for me and advised me not to beat the child. So whenever the child misbehaves and i threatened to beat him, he would say, he would tell his mum and his mum would withdraw him.

Parents wey Dey pursue young girls up and down, entering one hotel to another Dey train kids for moral behavior

So, the kids' religious belief is a sign of failed parenting? How does it even tally? Shame.

What happens to freedom of religion and association?

You were physically abused and you couldn't tell your parents because they were like your teacher too. Failed society.

Stop encouraging abuse.

Says a boy with no prospect, ambition or future. You're nobody. Menial worker! You're still living from hand to mouth!

You can't give what you don't have... Most of this parents don't even have the Moral behavior.

BrickDevo:
From August 18th mod nawa oh

Naso dem dey do at times

I am a Nigerian parent and I DO NOT ignore my children's morals.

There goes your statistics!

Truvelisback:
Nobody vex me ooo. I just noticed that kids of this century have lost it. Although, I don't blame them, I blame the parents. Awful things we couldn't do as kids in our time are what nowadays kids are doing and it's really astonishing.

Parenthood is not easy in today's world. Children handle TV remote control and smartphones nowadays, so they learn from all angles. Most children's behavior is not what their parents taught them.
