The flogging of a thing is a culture forced on us by years of slavery. You will find it all over Africa but nowhere else.

Not like Oyinbo no dey spank kids o but we go dey flog pikin like theif till he/she is 17 sef.

Growing up, dem flog me die from house and school. It only made me more rugged because I'm not a cow.

Don't complain to anybody when your child destroy your room because you seize his/her phone later on the future

Hello nairaland family

Before I begin let's define toddlerhood;

Toddler: 1-3 years. Preschooler: 3-5 years. School-aged: 5-12 years. Teenager: 13-18 years.

Is it necessary to start flogging toddlers?? I married a yoruba man And I noticed his sisters like flogging their kids including their toddlers. I'm not used to seeing little children being flogged not to talk of toddlers and I get this cringe feeling when I see it. Is it a cultural thing? Is that how the whole tribe Is like? Does flogging a child actually make him or her better Or is it not just child abuse
I do feel somehow seeing people flogging 2yr old, 3yr old kids. I feel somehow. What do you guys think

Flogging was part of
Those days

But with this present generation, counseling is the way out

I think you should just advise her but am sure, she is just pouring her anger on those little children

You may not know what she is going through that made the children to be the recipient

Flog your child when necessary, please (especially 2 and above). You don't want him/her to grow up and become a spoilt brat.

I think some young parents get soft with their children because of the media or what they observe from rich men's kids. Such will end up breeding a terribly rude, badly behaved ones.

The Bible says if you Beat him with a cane, he WILL NOT DIE (prob. 23:13).

Just don't cane with hot anger or lose your temper in the process.

God bless.

Metting out physical discipline on your child isn't as vicious as the Gen Z generation of adults are trying to make it come off.

Communicating with kids, work.
Spanking them with their size of cane also works.

Just find out which of these techniques works for you and make sure you raise them in the fear and admonition of the Lord.


God forbid we raise kids that would make us regret birthing them.

Toddlers are to be spanked in the bumbum I no dey miss that one I'm breastfeeding you and you bite me oh mehn I will spank you your papa go tell me thank you! As they grow you introduce the Cain.

Better don't let the whites deceived you when it comes to punishment. Certain punishment works for us here do to our upbringing and environment. Anybody flogging a toddler should be arrested..haba they are too small. You just spank them. Moreover use what works for you as parents. Don't try to copy others just study your kids and apply necessary punishment that can bring them to order.

Many of the best things we're using now such as the computer or phone you're using to read this, and almost every day to day items were invented by people who don't flog their kids and adults that were never flogged as kids. Let that just sink in. The world is moving forward. Spare the rod and spoil the child no dey work again. Those words were written thousands of years ago. Haba! Them flog me tire...na me spoil pass.

For me 'cane' hasn't yielded better results than 'words' used by the whites. All the areas we were flogged growing up , the whites tend to be doing much better. Areas like punctuality, hygiene, sincerity, not-stealing, Truthfulness, avoiding unnecessary noise making, avoiding unnecessary begging, orderliness, etc... the whites are performing better than us. Beating makes us see virtues as punishments

Bro, caning a child (2-15) when necessary is good. From my own personal life experience, and having dealt with different levels of students as an educationist.

It doesn't always work with older children, but it's perfect with anything 2 to roughly 9 or 15.

But once they get immune to flogging, then it's too late. You might as well be trying to correct a healthy He-goat. Cos you failed to start earlier. And being rude, wayward or stupid as become normal or praiseworthy to him/her.

The bible says you shall Beat him with a rod, and deliver his soul from hell... (Provb 23:14).


God bless.

Which one is child abuse in trying to correct a child?

I want to believe for every age you listed, there's a size of cane. Every child needs some form of dicipline to help shape them into well behaved humans however care should be taken in carrying out such disciplinary measures to avoid abuse.

For toddlers, I'll suggest a little spanking here and there to make them know when they've crossed boundaries.

My twin has a two year old who's been potty training for sometime now. When she gets carried away and pees on herself, she gets a little spanking on her bumbum and this has made her more conscious and she quickly runs to the bathroom/potty whenever she's pressed.
Now, she hardly pees on herself.

Spare the rod and spoil the child.

It depends. I don't believe in flogging a child however, there are times you need help a child remember what you have warned him/her about but definitely, not a toddler. Notwithstanding, tou can spank a toddler to help pass a message something is wrong. For example, if my toddler needs attention and you are not giving it to him on time, he tries to inflict pains on you with his fingers. A few taps have helped him reduce it.
Re: Flogging Toddlers- Is It Really Necessary? by NaBanga: 9:28pm On Sep 18, 2022
No there is no reason to do so. Most people in the Western world have shied away from this. It creates little angry monsters that grow into angry hateful adults. You can't even watch a Nigerian movie without insults and shouting. It's because it's hard to find a Nigerian adult that doesn't behave in that manner. Look at all the frustrated people in Nigeria, then look at the smiling faces in the Western countries. Forget the exceptions you see online and tv of violence in the West. The good far outweighs the bad.

Ask yourself why do babies beat people or haven't you seen babies fight.
It's a natural thing correction is not necessarily beating yet due to natural configuration of human even babies in the womb fight, but unethical flogging is bad.
Every child understand flogging by default even when babies bite during breastfeeding as habit they are spanked.
So it's not a Yoruba thing wait till you experience it yourself.
Invention of Antichrist in form of western adulteration and distortion of nature is probably the baseless sentiment you are considering and if you are from the South East also watch it has some parents from that region only practice parental negligence not what true Igbo discipline entail.

Every child or in this case a toddler has their own size of cane and the way you use it on them is different from the way you use it on child above that age. If you don't start on-time to correct a child or toddler, it may be difficult to correct them when they grow.
Exactly. It might not be what she termed flogging tho.
Just a way to correct when necessary. Some children of nowadays can be very stubborn and troublesome grin
