Former Big Brother Naija housemate, Gifty Powers, has urged parents not to physically hurt children while scolding them.

The 26-year-old entrepreneur said this in an Instagram post on Tuesday.

“It’s okay to be annoyed by your children’s behaviour at times. It is okay to be angry, but it is not okay to hurt your children in anger.

“’Scolding is not a good weapon for parents or parenting’. Be a positive parent and inculcate positive parenting techniques. Never abuse your children by not knowing the limits of scolding. Always keep this in your mind, she wrote in parts.

Gifty Powers confirmed the birth of her first child, Alisha, in December 2018.

The identity of her daughter’s father is not confirmed.

Pop musician, Mr.2kay was previously mentioned as the child’s father but those reports were never confirmed.
