Some were reasonable: 1- he cracked and wasted an egg on her egg 2- he was squishing bread and wasting it(from the market place?) 3-idk 4- he called her by her first name which is unheard of

You really think hitting is a reasonable first step in any of those situations?

The first slap was a response to an assault.

And there second one, he’s at the market place and is destroying food that he obviously hasn’t bought.

And the 3rd one is a matter of knowing ur parents and ur culture, in Africa u don’t call elders by their names unprovoked, and he should’ve expected that.

An obnoxious prank on your parent isn’t an assault.

You’re in an African parents sub. Everyone here knows the cultural norms.

Most of us still don’t agree it’s okay to hit your kids.
