Another Twitter user, @Letter_to_Jack quoted the tweet and said one can only understand if one has a child at home.

In his opinion, the TV was probably hung that high to protect it from children who may want to pull and break it out of curiosity.

He wrote:

"When you have kids in the house, you'll know why. If your first born is a boy, lessons will be learnt."

Teach children to respect boundaries at home

Some people, however, disagree that children can just break things at home and get away with it.

Speaking to Legit.ng while reacting to the photo of the television, a teacher Chinaza Victoria insisted today's parents are to blame if children are spoiling items at home.

Chinaza told Legit.ng that parents these days are ignoring the excesses of their children and are not teaching them to respect boundaries.

Her words:

"Parents nowadays are trying, by all means, to not be like their parents or adopt their parent's method of raising kids because they want to be woke. By doing this, they tend to ignore the excesses of their kids and let them have their way all the time in the guise of "they are just being kids". Parents have failed to educate their kids on boundaries and what should or should not be done. These modern parents feel they know better, hence the problem of today.

Chinaza insisted that children can recognise boundaries, such as not pulling and breaking a television if they are tutored not to.

She said:

"Kids are capable of knowing and recognizing boundaries, not just boundaries but even signals. Kids respect whatever you teach them, it only requires patience and practice."
