I understand that most Nigerian are passing through alot currently because of situations of the nation. Some people are even find it so difficult to eat 3 times in a day which make them forget Thier dear parents.

Despite our challenges, we need to understand that we still have more strength to achieve so many things unlike our parents who only depends on us.

So let me put this to your my dear Nairalanders, when last did you send money to your dear parents?

My mother and father died 2014 n 2015 respectively

Olasyke:
Even though I don't talk to my dad no more, I still send him something every two weeks.

I bet he'll see this if it enters frontage

so did he withdraw

Every month, unfailingly.

When my mother was alive, I sent her 10K one day. She called me several times and even sent me an SMS thanking me. I still have the SMS. (Ordinary 10K o).

I sent my Dad 100K one time. He called me and said: "So, it is only 100K, you could send me, after all these years". That day, I cried my eyes out in regret.

This is a man who did know how I went to school, how I survived, how I became a man, feeling entitled to my sweat. I even gave him 10x of what I gave my Mom.

They are both late now, but honestly, I wish my mother was still alive. I would give her more. That woman was an Angel.

Aww I feel like giving you a big hug.

I am sure they are proud of you.

Just remain nice and calm.

naijapikin2:
you not talking to your dad is worse than not sending him money. So stop sending him money and start talking to him.

Just my two kobo Sir

There are millions of people all over the world that don't talk to their dad because the dad never created that rapport between him and his son or show concern when it was needed. Infact he should not send him shishi again and still not talk to him. What nonsense

You these African parents you feel too big and important to apologise to your kids even when it's glaring that you are at fault.

Olasyke make sure you don't send a penny until he deflates his ego to make amends with you.

Since I was born to this moment I have never seen Nigerian parents owning up to their evil ways or say "it's my fault, I'm sorry".

Don't send shishi

.

I wish I still have one

My own na every week ,first son no easy

I place both of them on weekly allowance then every month I restock their foodstuffs, diesel, Dstv subscriptions, fill their fuel tanks for their cars every two weeks and help them pay their gateman and cook every month for the last 7years and I’m gonna keep doing so till they take to road no more

UnusualEmissary:
Na me still dey chop their money.

Very stingy like my son.

Sweetplum:

Last Bullet:

Dead that spiritual bullcrap. There are millions of people in the world that have cut off their parents and no damn blessing ceased

Just for your info. Dele Alli a former Tottenham player has nothing to do with his parents

I understand your perspective since your definition of success is materialism by nature.

ThePolemicist:
People will say they gave so and so for you..
But I’ll say.. So did their parents. And I too will do same.
They had a choice to have me & also had a choice to be responsible. Both for which I am grateful.
I feel everyone should plan their lives properly so as not to be liabilities or exclusively dependable on your children.
Investments and other measures should be put in place to arrange for the retirement times.
The viscous cycle has to continue. Don’t hamper the quality of life for the younger generation.
Contribute not solely cater for.

You are part of the reason why their op wrote this thread.A Yoruba adage says "bi okete ba dagba tan,omu omo re lo n mu." So you expect your father to still be struggling after 65 above with useless investment.

internationalman:
Pray make you get parents like Otedola and Dangote them, na them go still dey send you money even after you don marry.

While some parents keep taunting their children for being too old living and depending on them, others are are feeling too lonely and would even pay their children to park in with them.

To keep the world moving and economy going, certain things are unbalanced to maintain equilibrium.

Life nor go ever balance
Life nor go ever b

They do so BUT they still want their kids to be independent. Nobody, especially and even Rich people like people who aren't motivated.

The US Oil industrialist, Koch, as rich as he was, wanted his sons to be up and doing even though he left them a lot.

Thanks

My mother is dead.. If she was alive, i would have given her the entire world.. But you see my father, shishi, i no go give am. A very wicked man..

I do most her monthly cable subscription and also pay her rent.its not easy though.

Today, even though I need it more than them, I still send it on time because I know they denied themselves a lot just to do same for me! I have the world’s greatest parents no cap! They didn’t have to put up with my mess but they did, and that’s what love really is!!
