Sharap.

My experience in my own household is that all 5 of us left home, the very day we graduated.

In fact, in my case, I had already left home from when I had my IT.

When I completed NYSC, I came back to live with a a friend who accommodated 7 of us.

We all ended up leaving from his home to get our respective jobs, and those who went abroad, launched out from there.

Not a single person from my nuclear family went into fraud.

None or the boys with whom we all shared a home went into fraud and we all ended up well and independent, spread across Nigeria and indeed the world.
Just because you have mtn free data and android phone doesn't mean you should shut people up.

Accord some respect no offense.

By the way, I was expecting you to leave your parents house into your own mansion.

It's even friend house. That your friend should have eject you to roam the street maybe by then, you would realize different people with different reality and experience. Mtcheeew

Friend knew he didn't have a lazy, parasite in his home.

Contributed, and paid rent.

Stop encouraging laziness

Once you graduate, leave the nest and go seek yours.

Imagine spending 4-7 years in University, only to come back home to be stealing meat from the pot.

When you said that the money is not there, I just kind of wonder how much should be available before someone can decide to take responsibility...

If his father is not leaving with him,
<<< Won't he pay rent... Won't he eat or will he go to the shop owner and tell them to give him their products but that the money is not there that they should bear with him?

<<< If he stays on his own, electricity bill will be paid with the money that is not there right?

<<< I will not blame the man for anything because even if he instilled good values on his kids... Some will still turned out to be what they wanted to be... Some turned out to be selfish, some liberal minded...I wished that he should go with tough love on him....

I really wonder what they will do to a 29yr old man..who is acting ignorant to responsibilities

See wetin bad economy cause

You can't repay your father for raising you, you are still taking from him even at retirement

That's a crime


Use the method my mum used on us..

Note ; she is a retired Federal Government worker with my dad and they both earn good money from pension and house rent

Call all your children to have a serious conversation early in the morning...

Mandate each and everyone of them to take care of a certain bill or give you a certain amount every month so as to receive your true blessing while you're still alive

Start with little commitments for them

*filling of cooking gas
*service and fueling of Generators
*buying of pure water bags and water dispenser refill
*even your kid in school can afford to buy bread or live chcken every time he comes home if you mandate him to do so
*3k monthly subscription of internet or DSTV

I met a man in mechanic workshop whom shared his experience with me. He said his father ejected him from his flat and rented it out. That was when he tightened up. Today he is a proud owner of 3 buildings.

We are living in my personal house. l would single handedly pay electricity bills, lawnman, etc. My son would not want to help in any way, not even with pure water of #10 claiming that he is with his father.

You have two options and two options ONLY! Option one, you need to have him either start paying some of the bills or contribute significantly to maintain the household. And option two, if option one does NOT work out, then kick him out so that he can go and fend for himself. As long as he's over 18 years of age, you do NOT legally have any more responsibility as far as taking care of him is concerned. Some people do learn by going thru the experience of growing pains.

The current situation of the country made him to still be living under your roof. Don’t frustrate him and make him misbehave. He’s still a good boy unlike some sons who are jobless and shameless. Give him more time to look for a better job and let him move on

You're very correct.

I think the man's issue is that the boy doesn't contribute. And I think the son should contribute in at least one bill pending when he is stable to contribute for more.
It shows responsibility on his part

Naira landers, kindly advise me on what to do.

l am over 60 years old, a widower. By the grace of God, l was blessed with three children of which two are graduates with good grades from reputable universities here in Nigeria, one is still undergraduate before the departure of my late wife some years back.

As a retired man with meager money, I decided to manage a little business which barely gives me much money. One of these my children, a professional, though not teacher, is currently residing with me doing teaching job in different places as part time, pending when he would get a much better job.

We are living in my personal house. l would single handedly pay electricity bills, lawnman, etc. My son would not want to help in any way, not even with pure water of #10 claiming that he is with his father.

Efforts to convince him to assist me is not yielding positive result, instead he would pick quarrels with me. His senior sister has married, while the junior brother is still in the school as dependant, what sort of counseling do you think he needs to change.

I am afraid even if this boy owns shop rite in future, he would not help either.

Sir, please be patient with your son. This Nigeria is not very friendly, no child would want to be dependent. A few questions:

1. Does he smoke or drink?
2. Does he live above his means?
3. Does he come around with girlfriends?

If there is a yes amongst these questions, kindly kick him out ASAP. Else, I suggest you encourage him to get a better employment.
