Sharing her views via her Instagram stories, Simi disagreed completely with the idea of using violence to discipline children. In her words;
My take is why is it correction to beat a child when s/he's wrong, but physical abuse when you beat a adult for the same thing? Is it because they can't fight back? "spare the rod" but she an actual rod? Raising a child takes a ridiculous amount of patience and they will test it.
