Nigeria singer, Simisola Kosoko
Nigerian singer and songwriter, Simisola Kosoko has raised questions on the act of spanking a child in order to correct the child.
According to her, training a child requires a large amount of patience. She compared beating a child and an adult for the same actions.
According to her, people consider beating an adult as physical abuse and beating a child as a means of correction.
“My take is why is it correction to beat a child when s/he’s wrong but physical abuse when you beat an adult for the same thing? Is it because they can’t fight back? “spare the rod” but shey na actual rod?
“Raising a child takes a ridiculous amount of patience and they will test it. Sometimes you might be so mad u want to even beat urself join lol – but is spanking really the answer?”
This was after a social media user advised parents to avoid hitting their kids as a means of correcting them.
