Nah. Nigerian/West African discipline is on a whole new scale. Not even in the tiniest bit comparable. Not even.

Some of those videos are more done in banter but you get a taste. Not everyone comes from a culture where it’s alright to talk back to the people who gave you life and at worst have to go sit on some step for 8 minutes.

Sorry are you saying that if you don't hit your kids then it's fine for them to talk back to You? I've never done a naughty step either btw and Irish and English aren't the same culture or country

But that's what I'm saying ,every culture is different and some are more strict .

Chances are west African /Nigerian parents have had a rough life in those counties and alot of them will of worked hard and helped their family with every chore and cooked and cleaned and done everything , plus there's other hardship they've been through , and they come to the UK and they have that hard tough love that they give their kids as they probably come from poverty and they don't want their own kids to fail .
