That is also very disrespectful. Calling your father things like "man", "dude", "brother", etc. Just thinking about it infuriates me. Calling ones mother things like "sister", "sis", "aunty" I thought all these things were abominations in all Nigerian cultures. If I were a parent I dare one of my children to ever use terminology around myself or my future wife and see what happens.

Parents should teach children respect at an early age.

donroxy: Sharrap there, stay there and form civilised when tis just a barbaric attitude !!!

Nobody is blaming the Dad nor the Kids but In Africa and Most especially in Yorubaland, it is quite frown @ !!!
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

All Those Little-Little things when Not checked begets adverse disrespect !!!

If Those kids should call their friend's father by his firstname then, Hot slap is what they got from their friend !!!
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Ur Children should be trained to fit into the Moral Situations in the society not to be @ odds with them in the name of advancement/civilisation !!!

Ha ha. You never see anytin yet. Wait till e go reach pickin wey dey hail im papa 'yo nigga?

Fulaman198: I think it is an utter lack of respect to allow an offspring to allow them to call their father by their first name. No child should ever do that. Parents deserve the outmost respect.

Danielle22: I tink it a personal decision.......i knw of a girl dat stay in my frnds ous, she told her son 2 kal her aunty instead of mum cos of she didnt want pple 2 knw dat she has given birth.........xo wateva goes 4 d parent it dier choice.

Balley: My neighbour Mr Femi....., has 2 kids a boy about 4 years and and a girl 2 years.

They both call their dad Femi and not Dad. Initially i didn't know it was their dad that they were referring to, when i got to know, i asked my mum, why are these children calling their dad by his name and not Dad.

My mum said its what their dad want.

So that's was what lead to my curiosity to know why ask is children to call him his name.

What does a man stand to gain by asking his children to call him by his name, his own name oo, not surname, instead of daddy or father.

calebo101: My children would call me by my name, no big deal.

Polio:

Speak for yourself, calling your father or mother by first name doesnt mean they are not getting utmost respect...

And yes, it is UTMOST not OUTMOST, go and worry abour your command of the english language before you pull the last strand of hair out on your head over a trivial issue!

Oluwaseytiano: i dont think so.

Fulaman198:

Go and worry about your command of your mother tongue and respect for your elders

Polio: I dont see how some dumb fu..cks will see it as a lack of respect .. I just cant get my head round that crap!

Oluwaseytiano: calling someone dad doesnt mean respect
