I wish African parents would not stop the physical punishment for any mistakes too
Exactly, given the situation, if I had done something like this I would have been beaten badly. And with that they blame me repeatedly saying that it was my fault.
...
This situation has happened to me before so it kind of feels nice reading about positive parental communication
I swear, especially when the start calling you stupid for just spilling a cup of water
Honestly
i love how understanding they are towards their children…it’s the bare minimum but there are so many cases where children get physically punished for simply being kids and making mistakes. accidents happen and u never know when or how it’ll happen, so seeing the way both of them navigate parenthood by teaching their kids and explaining to them is so soothing for my soul. as an asian person myself, i wished asian parents didn’t continue the cycle of physical punishment on their kids just bc they went through it. i love kids so this story is really teaching us how to communicate with children if we ever plan to have one. oh the hardships!!!
