ProudBiafran:
You can punish your kids without physically abusing them.

The video shows that the man was throwing money at a problem and not looking at the root cause.

Your child does not just start skipping exams all of a sudden.

What makes you think the father is blameless?

Is the father smart himself? Did the dad make straight As?

Is the kid spolt? How did he become spoilt?

Do you need to blame the child misconduct all the time on the parent? That kid is a grown ass man with a father ready to spend crazy on him. I am not saying the parent is a saint o but we know what youth exuberance can do

ProudBiafran:
Dude, the dad could easily have killed the kid.

Never ever lay your hands on your kids in anger.

The video shows failure in parenting which ever you look at it.

The kid skipped exams

Why? Do you know?

A lot child skipped school because of not anything close to what their parent did. Except you’re not a child we should understand how youth exuberant works.

Laying your hand on a child is one way of correcting a child though not when you’re angry.

And please don’t blow it out of proportion na, which one is “could have easily killed the kid” ? So just because of two slaps he would have killed him easily haba abi you didn’t watch the video?

ProudBiafran:
Slapping your child can never ever be justified.

Filming it was good because it has brought to light the beast in the so called father.

it can’t be justified, yet it ain’t the worst crime against a child. I feel the father was so annoyed and got his temper off. His fault actually but how he apologies is another thing to reckoned with. The ultimate damage is the video surface on social media which plays the memory fresh and fresh again. In my own story me and father have gone through rough and tough and we are together. I have wronged him with weird ideology as a child so as him with weird ideology as an African parent. But now we are past those stage now because
1. We have left those ideology behind us and learn how the modern data work.
2. Our motive was for the greater good.

Omo na was for you! How can you be drawing up such conclusion?
You just want to paint disciplining a child very evil just for whatever reason
Now I see u r simply bent only on the negatives

no now you know I haven’t done so. Even me would discipline my child. But I am trying to make you understand that your child is a human on his own. For the fact you’re his father makes him your son and not your slave so you technically don’t have an ultimate power over him. Instead you have the power of a father. The video that brought up the discussion ain’t bad in my own view but I suspect the video recording is a problem. Why throw that in the public

Ahmedie28:
I,am an intermediate level php programmer, had designed so many softwares using php, some of my designed softwares are electronic voting, sch management, e - exam etc all this softwares were designed from scratch .
Due to much talk about php frameworks particularly laravel , am seeking an advice from my fellow programmers ,if there is need for me to learn laravel. pls advice me
Note: am familiar with WordPress in designing websites for clients.

just like PHP is a framework of web technology, so is laravel a framework of PHP. A framework is a platform where things happen. Laravel is platform for PHP web dev. It was fine tune and crafted by best PHP code artisans and coders. Learn laravel to get new ideas. Don’t make it a de facto because others are using it.

Look here Mr Sweet Mouth you don't tell a father how to run his family
You got sweet mouth others got Sweet koboko
if the father deems it fit to train his less than 18yr old child by slapping him who d 4k are you to question him?
Stop talking NONSENSE

Do you know Nigeria has the child protection Law/Act? Have you read it?

This same ideology lead a father to sell his child because he taught no one can question what he does to his child.

Fortune118005:
This question has been bothering the mind of a guy.
According to him he is desperate to have a girlfriend at the age of 19
Should he go ahead

If a child can wash is hand properly then maybe he can be allowed to eat with the elders. This so called 19 years old what and what has he done with his life so far should be the question.

Did he see a girl he likes and plan on starting a relationship or he just wanna follow the bandwagon of I am an adult and must have a girlfriend? That is the second question!

Third, how do you know the guy is bent on having a girlfriend or is it that you are the 19 years himself?

thedeedray:
They don't understand that the op is human and he has to have such urges...... I have the same situation like him (same age bracket, introvert).
1. He should try to communicate more with people
2. No matter how you try to keep your mind or body busy, your emotions will still show up (you can't suppress it)
3. Stay away from porn (that shit doesn't work, i tried it so many times)
4. Leave your forking shell,
5. Communicate with people, try to have a good and healthy relationship with the opposite sex

Now you are hitting the point. Being an introvert could lead to depressed behavior and make or mar you. It depends on where you direct your energy to, this is because introvert don’t have many social activities and they take strong hold on the one they lay their hands. Op should find a way of improving his communication and social confidence. He will later find out that spending quality time with friends give much pleasure than porn. And hanging out with a beautiful lady is more self satisfy than pleasuring a porn star in your head.
Op should get out of his small shell and become more self aware

Don't preach NONSENSE to my hearing again...

And what happen to wande coal and two face that dropped out and their father didn’t beat them? Timaya forsake his mom advice to become a banker and ran to Lagos, you know the rest?

Kanye west forsake his Mom ( who was a senior professor) and left school. Where is he now?

The parent didn’t beat them and yet they succeeded. Life isn’t black and white. When you know your children very well then you would know who to beat and who you won’t.

Grow up

inspayard:
Am not an advocate of physical assault but you don't expect a man to keep his cool over his son's failure nd bdw torture is simply inflicting severe pain on someone,its not like the man is a monster or something so stop painting him as such.

I am not, first who recorded it is a question to ask. He should have discipline his son at home Jeje and keep quiet.

Let us assume that there is more than than eye can see and the police didn’t just call him for just a small discipline on the son.

inspayard:
Am not married and what you just said is irrelevant to this post,am still an undergrad and the point am trying to pass across is that this is an issue that ought to remain within the family and be resolved amicably, people are just exaggerating the whole issue because it made its way to the media, assuming it was a case of torture that is something different entirely.

what do you call torture?

Bleak future better than the illusion you crave

No wonder Africa has remain like this. With all our legacy look where we are. The father beating his son is not much of a crime but thinking because you paid for him and he is your son makes him a property to you is backward thinking. People with more positive mindset train children because they see it as a responsibility. We over here see it as a choice and the benefactor should see it as their privilege

Gilbertase:
let the society have him. That man has done no wrong. Pple get whooped for far less. Give your child all the freedom to do whatever, since he/she somehow is an ADULT who you have to walk on eggshells around. Cheers

Misinterpretation. I haven’t condemned the mans action. I was only demystifying the believe that your son is a property and since you brought him to the world you can maltreat him. That shouldn’t be too hard for anyone to understand

Well, I guess you don't know much about the spirit and the word. Hormonal imbalance?... Okay oh wise one, you're right.

The demand for Front End JavaScript developers keeps rising in the west.

So if you are self-taught, I would like to know how you learnt Javascript, your do's and don'ts, your regrets etc.

Plus if you attended coding bootcamps, please share your experience as well.

Merci

mine was off and on but I learnt JavaScript so well and am good at it. “The Definitive guide to JavaScript” was like my best book also together with many online resources.
I also read “You don’t know JS” series for in-depth knowledge.
I also later went ahead to learn
Introduction to JQuery

SHARAP just SHARAP!

When the argument gets technical the less intelligent ones gets angry.

arthorjnr:
Truth is, its your decision.
If you decide to continue, you'll have to fight the urge. Its natural you're feeling this way and it's heightened because of the inactivity you're facing at the moment.
If you're a devote christian, I suggest the bible. It always works. Konji antidote.

If you choose to have sex, still your decision but I have to warn you, most times, it won't reduce the urge. If you end up having sex with a pro, my hommie, you gone. Lol.

What I'm trying to say is, staying without sex ain't easy, I admire your strength... But know that once u hit it and hit it good, there's no going back.

Focus on your future young blood.

do you understand? A person is saying he have a high sexual urge next thing you say is to read bible? As I would advice Op not to go in the way of Fornication. What is actually wrong with op is hormonal imbalances. He need to start reducing pleasure activities little by little.

pitamah901:
Am 20 and not had sex before, am an introvert and getting a girlfriend is not in my plan cause of the the responsibilities involved and have to focus on succeeding before getting a fiancee no time for gf things. But this sex urge is getting too too much and masturbating is not solving it at all,it used to before until this very strong urge that I can't control anymore took over.

Another thing is I come from a very religious home where no one taught me abt sex education or that I would have this sort of urge at this stage of my life, all they say is abstain till marriage and all that, like they didn't pass through that stage too

How do I go about it.

you are having dopamine problem. In other words it is called dopamine tolerance.

FuckDaMods:
Ahn ahn! On top my own money and my own son? Is Zambia truly an African country?

Your son ain’t your property .... you are just his biological father and have a duty to train him! Why? Because you brought him to the society. But that doesn’t give you the authority over his life. The society is placed above you on what and what happens to your son.

SavageMaster:
People did similar things abroad

How does it change anything? Are abroad the yardstick of what is stupid or not?

IlovePMB:
See what Buhari caused. People are seeing covid-19 in Nigeria but what is in Nigeria is actually karma-19. By the time coronavirus is through with Nigeria, Everyone including all Yoruba muslims, all Northern Muslims, all South South and South East APC, Mbaka, and even Buhari himself would know that Buhari and APC is a curse used to punish Nigerians for prophesying and electing the same old leaders with bad records as president. Not just for first term but for second term. 4+4 = covid 19






Why didn't he hear the early cries of concerned Nigerians to stop flights into Nigeria and close borders when the virus has already started dealing with Italy? But no he won't listen. He and his supporters like you would call us wailers when we tell this useless government the truth. We warned earlier but you called us fools. Now everyone is in it. This covid 19 would reduce that population APC normally use to win and rig elections. Kano, Kaduna, Katina, Borno, Lagos etc are in serious trouble. Mbaka can't do his adoration again. Covid 19 has shut it down. Anyone thinking that covid-19 would be defeated in Nigeria is day dreaming. Karma is real.



Say this after you survive corona and hunger due to shutdown. Hope Buhari has given you your own 20k before you come to Nairaland to beg.

you could have made sense you know? But the moment you entangled your statement with the conspiracy of the leader are the only problems and that the problem of Nigeria is because of APC. Then I understand your post is nothing but the political game we have been doing playing all along. I would rather not engage cheap talks.

yes I did

here is the code

<?php
session_start();

require_once 'config/db.php'; //this the config file

$errors = array();
$username = '';

$errors['username'] = "Username Required";
}

if(empty($email)){
$errors['email'] = "Email Required";
}

if(!filter_var($email, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)){
$errors['email'] = 'Email address is invalid';
}

if(empty($password)){
$errors['password'] = "Password Required";
}

if($password !== $passwordConf){
$errors['password'] = 'The passwords do not match';
}
//this code checks if the email has already been taken
$emailQuery = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE email=? LIMIT 1";
$stmt = $conn->prepare($emailQuery);
$stmt -> bind_param('s',$email);
$stmt ->execute();
$result = $stmt->get_result();
$userCount = $result->num_rows;
$stmt-> close();

if ($userCount > 0){
$errors ['email'] = "Email already exists";
}

//tip: Try to implement this for username
//We do not want two usernmes, do we?

//this code runs checks that there are no errors
if(count($errors)===0){
//encrypt the password to avoid damn hackers
$password = password_hash($password,PASSWORD_DEFAULT);
//generate a token for security
$token = bin2hex(random_bytes(50));
//verified is false until user clicks verify in the email
$verified = false;


//now query the database
$sql = "INSERT INTO users(username,email,verified,token,password)VALUES(?,?,?,?,?)";
$stmt = $conn->prepare($sql);
$stmt -> bind_param('ssbss',$username,$email,$verified,$token,$password);

Note: when I print_r session, it returns an empty array

If you’re experiencing this then I suggest you insert static data into the $_SESSION variable e.g
$_SESSION[‘username’] = ‘Stanliwise’;

after this then try print it in the other page, if it works then it means your bind_param() didn’t bind anything to those variables or your form submitted empty $_POST variables.

Also I wonder how you called bind_param() method on already existing variables, do you understand how $stmt works?

dometome:
You will never go through a PHp tutorial without the presenter parroting the MVC system. But when you actually try it, it completely falls flat on it's face. It is impossible to move the variables, from one file to the other, how can session work in one file and when you pass that it to another file, be it via include, require or require once, the session simply throws away the variables and returns empty handed? The stupid array returns empty. And there is simply NO solution. But when I do everything in one page, the whole thing works flawlessly. It is all complete garabage. I wonder what type of hickory pockery those YouTubers do to make it work on their computers, I have tried everything, spent the whole day on stackoverflow. Edited the PHP. ini file, Nothing. I am sick and tired of that rubbish.

Dont hate what you don’t understand.

You were saying you’re trying to pass session from one page to another.

Wait let me ask you did you start every page with

session_start()

?

MISTAICEY02288:
Good initiative... Even though Prisoners in Nigeria are not properly managed and they all gey jam-packed like Sardines in rooms..... In advanced countries, there's proper management and handling of prisoners as they get comfortable accommodations unlike the ones here. 50 inmates can be in a single room in Naija prisons. Good they're getting released sha. I just hope they place them on some rehab program too so they wouldn't be a problem to the society

Many of the prisoner being released are even a bit more rugged than they were we they got in. Taking freedom from a man wasn’t the original idea of prison but it is secluding them from the world so that they can be corrected and reformed before sending them back into the society but I am 99.99 percent sure this ain’t the case in Nigeria. If they are serious, they should release very old prison inmates and inmates whose Crimes are not violent or murder related. Also they should make thorough look into cases of people whose reason for being behind bars has not solid proof to back them up and also prison inmates who could be bailed and left to rot in prison probably over small cases. Left for me we have a long way to go concerning our correction facilities in Nigeria.

very true, I wasn't saying she shouldn't be punished for her act...I would have sort the bill if I was there and at the same time, I will make her see reasons why what she did could av cost her life and as well inconvenient the owner of the goods..alot of people are really suffering, make God epp us in dis country..NB: I thought she stole those things for her children to be able to eat ..

yes true considering this pandemic case as much as one is not out there to harm anyone, I see no reason why such babaric attitude is being displayed by some dimwit as if they don’t understand the country is hard but when they see our Goverment that steals the billions that left us all in jeopardy they will be some persons to greet and run after their cars. It’s a pathetic situation we find ourselves in Nigeria.

Perfecttouchade:
And the idiot of a man is rich and can't even tell the lady to go with the items for free..

The barbaric act of unclading the lady was uncalled for despite that we shouldn’t encourage the act of stealing whether from the poor or rich. Atleast the lady should have asked rather than stealing also the dumb so called pharmacist should have handed her to appropriate authority. Infact declaring someone is a thief with evidence is enough humiliation except the person is a shameless theif.
