Things Parents Use To Scare Their Children! by Tolexander: 6:19pm On Feb 15, 2013
Just thinking about my childhood experience then i remembered one of those things dad used in scaring me when i was young.
We had a calendar then that had Jesus' image, dad told me that if i commit any evil at home when nobody is around, that the Jesus image in
the calendar is watching everything. I used to be very scared that time to commit any sin cos dad said if Jesus sees me, he will throw me to the lake of fire immediately and many other things we did hear in sunday school. There was this day when i saw fried fish on the table in the sitting room, it caught my eyes that i intended stealing but i was scared seeing calendar Jesus watching me. That day i just summoned courage and said actually this fried fish was not supposed to be on the table in the sitting room that it was supposed to be in thekitchen. Then i moved it to the
kitchen and balanced with it actually, there was no calendar jesus looking at me in the kitchen. I finished the fried fish that day.


I believe everyone also have one or two experience(s) like this, will be very glad tohear your own story also.

I scare my toddlers with sour sop.Once I threaten to throw it on their bodies,everyone falls to formation.I guess the spiky appearance of the fruit does the trick.

My dad once skinned a rat for practicals and while we watched him he said whenever we disobeyed him he was going to skin us alive. Mhen how can I disobey him? I just can't.

At the mention of Ojuju... Every child must behave...*
But i think ojuju worked for us.. 'Ajekpako'


I'm sure rich kids would believe superman and spiderman would save them from ojuju, maybe that's why them punishment no dey pass to face d wall
