I am actually closer to my Dad.

But Moms spend more time with the kids from the womb to babyhood into childhood.... So it's generally natural for a child to be more attached to the mom...

Attention gotten from mother can't be compared with that of the father.

n

My dad is not just there o, I like the man finish but prefers mumsi sha

Wrong question:
It shld rather read:
Why do gurls luv their dad more n guys luv their momma more

It is very common that when people talk about their parents,they always describe their mother emphatically as been good and helpful but when you ask them about their father? The usual response is haaaa! that one? He is just there o or you hear something like abeg leave that one with his wahala o. What are the reasons behind this?

women a like Angels be it ur mum or bae.

Not everyone, love my dad more.

Because while growing up, they spent more time with their mothers and received more from them

Most mothers connect with their children's emotions, can empathise and are patient which cannot be said for most Fathers who only know how to push and push and have no patience.

aah mama's get soft heart if no be them if ur feeding cash finish for skul u go die of hunger papa go be like don't call me till the month ends
moms all the way

because papa too dey harsh like coco ice

Bcus i came out of my mum womb, she carried me for 9months.

I like my father more

Humans are quite insatiable.....

You grew up with both parents and now the debate is who to love more...

Even if one passed on at a time, you still have a memory of him/her..... Reason you could compare between them

Pls how can i contribute to the topic inview, having no memories of any of mine

But I love my dad more than my mum, that man has my back anyday anytime ...he's my gist buddy..

everyone knows I'm my dad's bestie, he calls me "eye Mi" meaning "my mother" whenever he's happy..
I thank God always for giving me my dad..
he is the best....I love you dad..

Never actually grew up with my parents, but from experience I know from my grandparents, I'm more closer to my grandmother dan my grandfather.

Mother apparently appears to be the most loved by the children due to intimacy as a result of the suck, quality time spent together, and their backing. Mother appears to be the one providing child's essential even when father seems to be the one behind it. However, reverse is the case where a mother fails her responsibility.

CHOPUP411:
Because most of us suck breast

I beg like for mothers and share for fathers

I clicked both because both suffered for me.

because their mum showed dem more love :Pbcos their mum showed dem more love

Tinalex:
The same reason why 80% of guys nowadays are the way they are, "irresponsibility". Most men are just baby daddies and not fathers so they lay no good legacy for their sons/daughters. They go about saying "a woman runs the home and we are polygamous by nature" Hence the love for mothers. Go out there and see women hustling for the upkeep of their children. May every good father and mother reap the fruit of their labour.

well said, there is a difference between a daddy and a father

Naturally, mothers re more caring than the fathers.
Mothers stays more with the kids than the fathers
Even from the womb to birth, there z this natural bond already built b/w the mother and child.
Mothers makes Sacrifices for their children, hence the children pay back with love and care.

NevetsIbot:
the only memory of the time i ever played with my father was at age 5,....... Before n after then...we were strangers... Till now....

Buh mum,... God bless her... My everyday playmate and gist padi

Very touching. Did you ever ask your mom what transpired between both of them before he left? You hearing both sides of the story may actually be helpful to you. You don't have to share it on social media, just get the whole facts and remember history repeats itself.

Oftentimes some parents have painted the other parent bad to turn their kids against them. Glad you have a caring mom, hearing from dad as well could let you know if he's caring or not - vs whatever you think you know about him.

Not all mothers.

The affection I have for my mother is almost at par with my father. I'll say 60%-40%.

Some of us are lucky to experience love and sacrifice from both of our parents... I don't joke with either of them

A good father, provides financially for his wife, children and Family.
A good mother, spends the money wisely. Hence mothers been better custodians of the financial provisions.
If only mother's always reminded the kids that, most of the nice gifts, food etc etc etc was provided for by the ATM in the house.......

The kids love mothers more because they believe mothers do it all........

My dad was never there, hasn't even set eyes on me in 20years but My MOM from day one always there I love her more than I love myself because she made me who I am today. Love you mom always
