I remember someone talking about spanking her child for mistakenly spilling water so I asked her what she did when she spilled water. She was like I get a rag to clean it, so I asked her why she didn’t spank herself and she was like “it’s a mistake”.

That broke me cause it is conditioning. That after hurting you you need to seek reassurance from the person that hurt you. That’s why we have domestic violence thriving
I just hope we can reflect on our actions as parents. I’ve been in Maraji’s position, and it’s not one of my proudest moments as a parent, I don’t want a medal for that….It doesn’t teach a child what we hope it will.
What breaks my heart is when they come close afterwards, looking for reassurance, asking for a hug, wanting to know if they’re still loved. We teach them to use kind hands, then turn our own hands into something they fear.
May God help us make better choices for our children.
You turned out fine but can’t resolve conflict without blowing up.
You turned out fine but any discomfort you run away.
You turned out fine but you’re scared of authority.
You turned out fine but resist healthy love.
You turned out fine but struggle to express yourself.

Why friend (will not be tagging her because you people are animals) who has never hit her kid for one day, has raised one of the most emotionally stable and aware child, I’ve ever met.
Very intelligent boy that knows that actions have consequences, but is still aware that we never put our hands on people.
You people are lazy and do not want to actually parent and that’s why a frustrated child frustrates you to the point of hitting them.
They’re children. Children.

That’s why it’s easier for the rebuttal to be “it’s because you’re childless” and not them thinking to themselves that something is wrong somewhere.
You don’t have to beat a child to “discipline” them btw.
When Sola Allyson said “many of us our first abusers were our parents” was too real.
Just cause something is common/ normalised within a culture doesn’t make it right.
Yuppp; I’m also glad that era of Nollywood actresses selling brightening/ bleaching cream is over. Or at least died down. There are soo many better businesses to venture into!
