Bovi Discusses Parenting Approach After Son Breaks TVs

Nigerian comedian and actor Bovi revealed during an appearance on the Honest Bunch podcast that his son broke at least three television sets while growing up. Bovi explained that his son would throw objects and break them when angry, but he opted not to beat him.

Instead, he chose to observe his son's behavior and waited until he was old enough to understand his actions and feel remorse. Bovi stated, “I don’t advocate for beating children.

You should let children be. My son dey break television for the fun of it.” He noted that his son eventually became remorseful, acknowledging that he had broken three TVs by that time.

Bovi expressed gratitude for his financial capacity to replace the TVs, suggesting that if he could not afford new ones, his approach might have differed. He also questioned whether some parents discipline their children out of a desire to correct them or due to their own frustrations.
