‘If you can’t discipline your child, don’t bring them to public places’ — Lady criticises ‘gentle parenting’

S Nigerian lady has sparked debate online after expressing her frustration with what she described as poor parenting disguised as “gentle parenting.”

In a video, she argued that many parents excuse bad behaviour instead of correcting their children, leaving others to deal with the consequences in public.

According to her, children who are old enough to understand instructions should be taught to sit still, greet elders, respect boundaries and obey simple corrections.

She went on to describe such children as “untrained” and said parents should stop bringing them to social gatherings if they cannot control their behaviour.

Sharing a personal experience, she recalled being at a salon when another customer’s child repeatedly touched her phone while the mother allegedly did nothing to stop the behaviour.

The lady also praised her two-year-old neighbour, saying the child already greets adults respectfully and even kneels to greet, which she believes shows that good manners can be taught from an early age.
