My point is..... DAT its a generational belief doesn't make it old SKUL or wrong....because it works! Nothing can change DAT!
it may not necessarily be wrong, it may work. But those methods arose based on the prevailing conditions at that time.Animal hide covered our unclothedness didn't it? but we've all moved on to silk and what have you.

normal na. spoonfeeding, bottles and all. usually wat was force fed was akamu. u sure can't force feed peppery food? more friendly foods are out, cerelac weetabix maize, e.t.c. you have bottles that can keep the food warm for a period. sometimes gan, force feeding was to prevent wastage. u know akamu doesn't stay long.
