To me, you are very irresponsible to call your father an irresponsible man.

You are a grown man now, why are you not responsible enough to do all what your father failed to do, fool.

You are even doing POS
you are a bigger fool? is it my responsibility to take care of children of my father children? when l have my own kids they wont pass through this pressure? l wont bring kids that will come to this world to fend for themselves l rather not marry than take such a route,, if u like go and harbour children u can't fend ur children will call u this name either directly or indirectly..
Did u know what it means to literally carry yourself through University and after managing to graduate the little u are making u literally use all of them to Carter for unending demand..
if u have not been in people shoes just keep quiet u fool

Is that you called you own father irresponsible just because he has no money? Haba!!! This is too much for the father that begat you. Does not having money amount to irresponsibility? Your turn will come. You even went to university and you still complaining over what? You should be ashamed of yourself. Maybe it's after suffering over your upbringing yet nothing to show that makes him abandon others. University education na garri,I drop out three times.
You a big fool dont make me wish what begget me on you? If u don't understand people situation just shut up

Re: How Do l Handle My Irresponsible Father!! by Kobojunkie: 6:35pm On Oct 03, 2023
Leave him for God. What else do you wanna do? If accidentally anything wrong happens to the man now, they'll say it was you who killed him. Just keep talking to him in a calm way since he's your father. Don't forget to stand in the gap for him too. I mean, intercessory prayers.
He's your only father, last last. wink
Good luck
The man has kids he is not able to fend for and it becomes OP's duty to carry him in prayer? Are you joking? Una too dey like to place burdens on people wey una no fit carry for una selves. undecided

Ezekiel2122:
Sorry about that, but if I may ask, did he has and doesn't want to give or has none at all?
He's working and still complaining to have nothing or not working at all?
Though, being irresponsible has no other word than that but it's always a good ideal to analyze problems from grassroot and find solution.
If he's working and still complaining, a review of financial status is highly required by calling all the family together and have a discussion and if he has no work, I think getting one will help.... My opinion though...
Because it is the duty of your children to analyze the situation for you, the father, in order to figure out why you, their father, are unable to meet up your obvious responsibilities to them abi? undecided

You better ignore some of all these people. They have made mistakes and in the same trap.

Just make sure you plan your life before you bring anybody into this world especially Nigeria.

It is well. Let me quickly correct you there. Pls don't ever address your father as being irresponsible even if he acts as one, it shouldn't come out of your mouth pls. You see, no Father is outrightly irresponsible. The way we are wired, we are designed to fend for our families. However, when forces beyond his control makes that impossible he malfunctions like a computer infected with a virus.Pls understand this and pray for Dad.

God bless you - this TINUBU fire most Nigerians from the SAT WAIST are playing with= will soon burn this country down

When foreign Universities start giving us tough time in admission overseas to do masters --- just insisting we have to do first degree only

because they can verify ONLY WAEC but not any Nigerian University degree, then everyone will realize the damage TINUBU has done to

this country -------- I DO NOT CARE TO KNOW ANYTHING ANYMORE - I have seen enough from the liabilities he has and the way he talks

and the way he ran his life living like a mafia Boss - TINUBU will destroy everything left about NIGERIA in the eyes of the world and very soon

every Nigerian will be affected negatively --- CSU is going under oral deposition today - the school may face backlash of former students

suing the institution that their "ROLE IN DEFENDING TINUBU HAS RENDERED THEIR DIPLOMAS QUESTIONABLE" and they need

compensation - that will amount to HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS in class lawsuit damages - which may end up destroying the

the school - founded 156 years - it took the inordinate ambition of an iragbiji power hungry tout - to destroy a huge institution of learning.


ONE CAN NEVER SUPPORT TINUBU WITHOUT DISPLAYING SIGNS OF INSANITY AND LACK OF BASIC COMPREHENSION angry angry angry angry angry

OP answer these questions honestly
1) Does your father spend his money on Drinking and smoking/drugs?
2) Does your father womanize?
3) Is he hardworking?
4) Does he provide anytime he has the money?
5) Does he gamble away any money he makes?
If he does not engage in any of those negative vices I mentioned, then the truth is that he doesn't truly have money.
Don't kill your father before his time.
Also, your mother's job is not just to pop out children. She should be very involved in training them too. Don't heap all the responsibilities on the man. You have done your best by providing part of the money.
Shalom.
Dey there dey fool yourself! A father who cannot provide for the children he voluntarily squirted out of his loins into this world is a deadbeat father, whether he has a sob story or not. Stop consoling yourselves with silly reasoning in your foolishness. If you have kids that you are unable to provide for, you are no less a looser of a father than those who womanize, etc. undecided

With the world the way it is today and the competition as strong, no one should be having kids unless he is absolutely sure he can provide them all they need to succeed. undecided

It is well bro...

Sometimes when I look at my dad,I only wonder how he managed to do it....As in,how he managed to take care of my brothers and I after the death of my mom despite being jobless..............There was never a time we went hungry...We were even privileged to attend one of the best private school in town...Tho there were challenges along the line but it really helped shaped us into being what and who we are becoming....



Op, it's never been easy...........But trust me, there's no wicked father anywhere who would fold his hands and watch his children lack when he has the ability to solve their problem....

May we become fathers and not only fathers but the type that will be able to provide eveey basic need of our wards and our parents and every loved one 🙏

Trust me , I have seen wicked fathers. Very wicked!

Let's leave sentiments. The man is irresponsible. Google that. You shouldn't give birth to kids, you can't take care of. That is irresponsiblity. The young man is struggling for himself and he has to take care of his siblings when the father is still alive.


Just fathering children alone, does not make you 'responsible' on that fact. Take care of the kids you give birth to, if you don't want your kids to call you "irresponsible". I assure you, no child wants to call their parent, that. But, it is what it is.


Op, give your sister the 15k and leave it at that. You have done your best. Let her parents do the rest.
God bless you. Your comment is the best so far. I said thesame thing....
Truth is a lot of fathers'thisdays are irresponsible. All they do is give birth and drink. My friend suffered from this rubbish during his mum burial in fact his landlord ejected him from his house becos of "I wan carry my family burden"
The Dad does nothing but to collect and collect. He spends his dead mum money over 350k on what till date we don't know what he did with the money
