The issue of corporal punishment has been a solid ground for arguements among cultural moralists all over the world. Be that as it may, it remains an option for african parents up till date. The expression, 'Spare the rod, spoil the child.' has been the anthem in most homes. This is not limited to blacks living in europe and other parts of the world.
However, from another perspective, it seems ridiculous to pick a cane and hit a child with it. Some even go to the extreme, using broken bottles, pressing irons and pretty much anything they can lay their hands on. Some believe a child should be talked to, not beaten.
This is not an issue of whether it is right or wrong, it's a matter of wondering if this will still remain part of a culture that seems to be fading away with the winds of time and civilization...

lacidi:
There is nothing like 'an hybrid'. The correct pronunciation is 'a hybrid'. The 'h' is actually pronounced and is not silent. That you cannot pronounce 'h' does not mean you should also write the way you speak. There is nothing like 'an house', 'an honda car', 'an hole,! Do you guys write like this in secondary school? Na wao!

Ogbeni, wetin be ur own? And if u must correct someone, at least do it in a civilised and respectable way.

eleojo23: In addition to the poster's opinion, some points in this post were gleaned from separate articles by Sylva N.I, Niall Doherty and Leigh.

You could be right, but It doesn't mean a thing. I liked it. We liked it.

blackchukky: Perhaps because the butt is cleaned with the aid of the left hand after an excretion operation

I know some who use their right hands... Baba, you might have shook hands or exchanged money with such a person, who knows?

Personally, I see nothing wrong with the left hand. It is just as useful as the right, but what can I do? No one can fight against a culture as immense and deep as the african culture!
