Padipadi:
my dear, it's real in Nigeria.
These kinds of fathers makes up to 60% of dads in my area.
So many broken family, single mothers, futureless children.

it begs the question though - who are the women sleeping with these irresponsible men? were they räped or they are too blind to see through the irresponsibility of these useless men?

Poverty is a social factor we seem to be missing out. All things being equal.. we should have responsible fathers. The frequency and high levels of irresponsible fathers and careless care free fish-brain girls also contribute to the ease with which they get pregnant and dumped

Some Nigerian fathers even prefer to spend all they have in a beer parlour than paying school fees of children especially in cases of male child preference. These class of men need to go into extinction.

Some of those kids are helpless & didn't v the opportunity for breakthrough. Why, because that's the norms of their family. Their grandfather, greatgrandfather were also irresponsible to their grandmother & greatgrandmother. Their family is myopic within the bad behaviour. They don't see what's bad in it to be just irresponsible to their wife & kids. They believe it's a normal thing. You ll see such family filled with never do well people.
It looks like am exaggerating, but it's real.

i can add to that.....
many of these women actually know the men they are sleeping with are married with lots of children and they still sleep with him anyways. when they get pregnant, they scream from the roof top.

the irresponsibility didn't start with the abandonment of the children, it started when the girls willingly had unprotected sex with a married man just because she wants to own a blackberry.

Kudos to all the great fathers.

Thumbs down to all those pot bellied men who spend monday to friday at drinking joints carrying small girls on their laps leaving their long suffering wives to raise the kids on her own.

I remember the story by Obasanjos wife how she had her car break down on her way to visit the kids on third mainland bridge and her husband drove past her with a car full of women. I also remember his sons sworn statement in court that he slept with his wife.

I know someone who holds so much anger against his dad and we have been trying to talk with him to let go but anytime he lets his guard down small the father will call with silly demands and resentment starts again.

This lousy attitidude is not only fathers some mothers are worse. They see their kids as tools for competition sending them to steal and prostitute just to meet their greedy appetite.

Being a parent is a whole load or responsiblity, if you are not ready to be FULLY one then please dont. Stay lousy use protection and enjoy as much as you want, dont bring children into your pathetic existance and selfishness

You look like someone that's not based in Nigeria.
Did I guess right?
Anyways, in the western part of Nigeria, lots of women are decieved daily by these men. Some of these men may be responsible during courtship & during the early years of their marriage but change later on. From what I know, these men change when they meet a new mistress. The annoying part is they ll now abandon the other wife or wives & kids to concentrate on the new mistress.
Lastly, the women also share part of the blame. No matter how illiterate or uneducated they may be, they should not continually get pregnant for such men or possibly refuse them. Cos such men only remember them for sex & nothing else. When the sex turns to children, these men ll not be responsible.

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

No wonder there is so much anger in these boards

If you don't use your money to ensure your kids get out of poverty how will they break out

Many nigerian fathers are grossly irresponsible. This is due to the high irresponsibility of nigerian men who are faring worse.
