Things Nigerian parents do that can ruin a child. Some are so annoying I swear. Now I'm writing this from a child's perspective. Below are some of these things;
1. They see themselves as god. Most especially the father's. They always want to control a child's activities and life. You take permission before you urinate or do anything in the house. This sucks... pretty well.
2. They try to limit their children because of fear of the unknown. By doing this, they limit a child's future. Most stop their children from singing, dancing, playing football etc. They ruin or drain their children's potential. Some can't even motivate them to grow. They belief that if they become great one witch or wizard from their paternal family will eat them up. This too suck.
3. Most parents don't allow their children to be free. They want to control every aspect of their lives.
4. They make the children depend so much on them. They don't teach a child how to be financially independent. This is why even at 25- 30 years some are still daddy's boy and girl. Still getting money either from the mother or father and are still feeding from them.
5. Some decides their child's future.
6. They believe that they can also get back from a child because they paid his/her school fees while in school.
7. As a child, you cannot correct them. A child correcting them is like an insult. To them no child is greater than the parent in knowledge.
8. Comparing a child with his contemporaries. There is nothing that can drains a child's energy than this. This one is the worst. Parent does this often.
These are the ones I can recall now, I will add more to it later. Have a nice day!
