if am to advocate for anything in this world, it will be, don't claim victim, don't let people thought bring down,


pressure or not, is when you allow them.

Not so easy, especially when the people pressuring you are the ones taking care of you, some do hold on and use your advice. But I feel for the ones who break.
I love your advice.

Essentially he is building one already, we are in a thought provoking session, and everybody contributing in one way or another is bringing a solution to this societal menace.
Raising a girl child in this Facebook days requires 200% devotion.

Not really, I think it's a she is basically saying I don't want a girl child, no effort to change anything. Just doesn't want a girl child so the "problems" of raising a girl child do not affect her.

I have sisters who are still living in my father house single with business on their own, the pressure of marriage from my father is there, but there will listen to him and move on,


I think what some women should be doing is to raise girl child to be hard work, and responsible in every areas of life,


intend of saying girl child are not being recognized, their should start fighting for equal right.

You understand me perfectly, also not just women, women and men should raise both sexes male and female properly. I agree with all, but this writer would rather not have a girl child so that such issues do not affect her, so pathetic.

Didn't get that at all, just got someone complaining about how hard it is to raise a girl child and in the end doesn't want to raise one at all.

I fault your logic.

A child's mind is always blank at birth and gradually filled by the impressions s/he forms or is formed for them.

Garbage in, garbage out.

You've just declared yourself a failure and not worthy to raise a child, whether boy or girl.

It depends on her upbringing o. Most of us would rather hustle like a man (Monday to sunday) at our diverse careers and businesses, than allow one man use money to be controlling your life .There are still a lot of ladies who value their self worth enough to hustle with all their clothes on. You just need to raise your girl child to love herself, be strong, very assertive, hardworking and independent.
Best post of the week,I still believe in instilling self confidence and self worth in the girl child.

Male or female, people will end up becoming whatever they want to be. Aren't we just reading about a guy whose father drives a cab and mom sells groundout or something, yet all he flaunts are his Gucci shoes. Who wants a son like that? When a child chooses shoes over his parents, even barren people will appreciate being barren than have a child that won't cater for them when they get older.

All you can do is just try your best to raise them the best way you can.

Leave all these things, there are still decent girls out there that will never disappoint their family no matter what, no matter the temptation. The ones that decided to make themselves cheap and object of sexual gratification are on their own, you shouldn't generalize or give up on the girl child.

It depends on how you train your child and how you advice her, also family she is from matters. Decency is in the blood.

The peer pressure is really eating deep into the average girl's mind neither is the environmental effect doing her any good.

The truth is the average girl believe in "survival of the fittest, the pressure of meeting up with the world's standard" afterall everyone is doing it.

Then the thought of "Hmm, solape my junior back in secondary school now ride a Corrolla? I must ride LR3 too.

Cycle of friendship is also a major factor

@lawlahdey, hope I'm permitted to use the word "average girl?
True talk, if one is not strong enough and has the spirit of resistance and control, one will succumb to peer pressure, I know how many times I have tried not to join " the hot babes gang" in doing their runs business, my school has a lot of them, 80% of the girls are into runs, not like I don't need money but then I know the family am from, am contended with the one they give me and we don't misbehave in my family. So its all about upbringing and training, spare the rod and spoil the child.

Please, be sincere. What about peer pressure as she grows up?

Not every child succumbs to peer pressure. I am a living witness to that. Your kids should be raised in such manner that they lead the pack and not be led around by peers.

There will always be peer pressure, But it's your duty as a parent to form your child's conscience and not his/her peer.

guy face d truth he said it right now stop defending rubbish, how many guys do u see unclad, how many guys do u see shooting nude video wit one girl, d girl child is made to go thru slot dat for dem to achieve anythin in d society dey have to give up their dignity hence d actress in nollywood are far richer Dan d average actor.

go to parties n see how d girls who come as usher are made to date those gud for nothing guys n how many touch dem anyhow n dey become pregnant n society give dm names.

face d fact n only pray for God to give u a gud girl child dat will not follow d society

Your argument isn't tenable. In philosophy it's called the error or fallacy of generalization.

Not all girls are indecent and loose and like to party all night long.

There are girls out there bending over their books, studying hard to graduate, many girls out there frying bean cakes for their mother's as the sun bites hard, so many young ladies out there raising godly families. These were raised by sensible parents.

You can't be a mother and be partying all night and expect your daughter to prefer the life of a nun?

Hypocrisy is when as a guy, u have slept with more than one girl since the beginning of this year and still criticise the op or as a girl slept with more than one guy or ever collected money from a guy whom you are not married to cos u have an intimate relationship with him. The reality of what was said, lives within the confines of most of our very environments, and we get to see it on TV daily. There's no denying that there are still descent girls out there, but how many have been tagged as such only to later discover it to be a sham? So many have lost the most important virtue in life, the virtue of shame.

Deep. You know what i think about this? The truth is the average female don't have the strength or ability required for day-to-day jobs. The average female is work-lazy. She wants things to come to her on a platter of gold and in a country like Nigeria, that's quite impossible. So, she resorts to selling her body because that's the only way to have it easy.
