I truly admire the sort of values your mum placed on you guys and agree very much with them.<br /><br />Have learnt a few tips to use on my own kids in future.<br /><br />You sound way wiser and mature than someone in their early twenties, really cool. I attribute that to wisdom gotton from home as well.

...Thank God you took the home training dished out.<br /><br />Like Mee said, parents face so many pressures when it comes to bringing up children nowadays - and not everyone has a good support network<br /><br />However, a lot of parents nowadays think discipline is not 'cool' N.I.L (Naijamum in London)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15874463908664570341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297258085201168083.post-72551756188625344872012-11-02T21:21:19.991+00:002012-11-02T21:21:19.991+00:00I think I had the same experience as you growing u...I think I had the same experience as you growing up, though I believe I took something from our own kitchen, probably meat. That was not allowed either and it was my dad that dished the cane. Thank God for their investment in us, glad too they had limits that did not cross into abuse. I pray I can use some of their lessons when I become a parent too.Mynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07595087387069634003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297258085201168083.post-31258733087211546252012-11-02T17:46:53.629+00:002012-11-02T17:46:53.629+00:00GOD rebukes those HE loves, and the bible says SPA...GOD rebukes those HE loves, and the bible says SPARE THE ROD, SPOIL THE CHILD....i believe in spanking really good, because i got my own fair share from my parents..and it instilled some morals and principle in me...STEALING is what every parent hates most! <br /><br />As for the Aluu victims, my heart bleed and cry for them anytime i come across it like now....if a child falls sick and dies, it is a different matter entirely, the parents would accept it as nature and heal gradually but to be killed brutally and names tarnished is like stabbing a knife in the heart of the parents that the wound will never heal completely. Their souls rest in peace and the murderers will never find peace!<br /><br />The pressure meet the needs of the family, have made many parents to leave the upbringing of the children in the hands of nannies and relations....it is never a win-win situation. The GRACE of GOD we seek, if not....

Whilst in school most of the people that stole and lie were in their 80's and 90's so what happened to the discipline?<br /><br />Anyhoo, it is not only parents its also individuals too using their common sense. <br /><br />I agree people are busy chasing DONKEYS as my pastor will say and the basic upbringing is lost in the process.Daughter of Her Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13153158836293987110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297258085201168083.post-86139285053835568572012-11-02T14:20:16.345+00:002012-11-02T14:20:16.345+00:00Hello Jelony, thanks for visiting...I agree ask an...Hello Jelony, thanks for visiting...I agree ask and if not available let the person know... well said. <br /><br />I think it is also a conscious/conscience thing to be aware of.. worse of all some people will steal and lie...?

These days, I think the pursuit of money, the desire to provide the “best things in life” has limited the time that should be spent with children and therefore some parents can’t pass across the values learnt during our time to them. The economy is not helping matters and the western world has also infiltrated and widened our understanding of our roles as parents. <br /><br />We were taught to be wary of strangers, tread with caution, listen and show respect to elders, be self dependent, rise above challenges and never say never. <br />Sykikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03852200510942634180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297258085201168083.post-33873119908733893032012-11-02T12:41:09.227+00:002012-11-02T12:41:09.227+00:00Great post.

I don't remember ever stealing anything myself and being punished for it but I was always taught that stealing is wrong from when I was a little child. I don't even feel right taking things from family members without their permission.<br /><br />Whenever I find myself in a situation where I need something and the owner is not around to gain permission from I always try to call them on the phone. If it's a family member I will use the item and make sure I inform him/her as soon as I see him/her. If it's not a family member most of the time I just don't use the item or if I do I again make sure I tell the person and if it's something that needs replacing I make sure I do so.Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14772972835576957742noreply@blogger.com
