Recently, I typed some documents for some female teachers, in which they were asked for their next of kins. Apparently, they were all married, none was a widow or divorced because they stipulated this in their documents.

However, what puzzles me is that none of these women chose her husband as her next of kin. Is it that their husbands are old, untrustworthy or what.

Is it all or most women that prefers her child as her next of kin. Help clarify this please. thanks,

cos they're more connected to their kids than their husbands

cos their husband is d husband of all and the father of all but their child can only have ONE mother and one father

Because the husbands may kick the bucket before them.

you think if i had an abusive or irresponsible/useless husband i will put him as my next of kin?


those women probably have better reasons for doing so
