Mum Burns Daughter’s Hand To Stop Her From Sucking (Photos)


A woman has been accused of using fire to burn the hand of her daughter in a bid to stop the child from sucking her thumb.

Sucking of the thumb is what some children engage in, though this gives some parents something to worry about.

However, a Facebook user, identified as Enemuo Nneka, who shared pictures of the burnt hand of a girl, said her mother allegedly used fire to carry out this act.

Nneka, who wrote, “What a mother did to her daughter all because she wants to stop her from sucking her finger,” queried “is that not madness of the highest order?”

She advised parents to “desist from listening to advice of ‘frienemies’ that pretend to be friends.”
