Uyi168: Sad thing is, no man wants to be unfortunate! No one will happily be paying school fees for a child who acts rude to him and will not appreciate his efforts after being brainwashed by his/her embittered mother Call it "irresponsibility" - but it's a major factor in why a lot of men are "absentee" fathers. When two elephants are at war, the grass suffers. 3 Likes |

Patriarchy001:Better the "selfish route" than sacrificing her life for her son, only for him to grow up and 2. Watching her son give another woman (his wife or girlfriend) everything! Now this is what pains her the most. Wherever you see wives and mother in laws clashing, in most cases, it is as a result of this - a single mother has invested all her time, love and affection in singlehandedly raising her son, believing that he will value her for the rest of his life but reality is often a far cry! In my observation, most mother-son relationships are sustained by aggressive and desperate efforts of the mother reaching out to her son. It is seldom the other way round. The worst part is if she allows jealousy override her sense of rationality and decides to make an enemy of her son's choice of a spouse, she bears the risk of losing him completely because he would most likely choose his woman over his mother who probably raised him to always overvalue the female gender - this is a notion that she didn't realise would backfire on her once her son falls in love. Right? It's a tough world indeed. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. He's perfectly aware, and contrary to what nairaland men would love to believe about single mothers, he married her in full. Did all the rites...threw a big party and all! As for her son growing up resenting her, he'll get over it! If his father had done the needful, his mother would not have married another man. 1 Like |

mariahAngel: A lot of people had to grow up with their grand parents because of this. And it's totally okay. Mama needs to be able to compete in the harsh dating market. Use vibrator until you marry or make sure home boy double wraps each time. The potential to create life you are not ready for is not a thing to joke about. 1 Like |

Patriarchy001: Then that is not a man. As a man, you do not do something to be "liked". You do it because that is what needs to be done. You keep doing it because at the end of the day, that is your seed. They may be small now, but Adulthood tends to shatter certain illusions. That seed will eventually grow up one day and understand what is going on. Then the manipulative woman will have no more tricks to play. |

2buffagain: Too bad many men aren't willing to risk it.. The reality still remains that a lot of guys out there stay out of their children's lives because of the broken relationship with their baby mama.. Sad but true nonetheless. 3 Likes |

2buffagain: Errrrrrrmmmmm...Instead of vibrators and "wraps", I think abstinence is the most effective to prevent cases such as these, don't you agree? Trust me, it makes life much simpler! |

mariahAngel: That too, but that's too hard for everyone. First of all, are you female? If you are I will understand |

2buffagain: In other words, it is mostly men's fault, since they find it hard to abstain from sex to start with? Hmmm |
