DamianDd:Sorry if I sounded harsh, maybe because of how you narrated the story. But please and please go back to your dad and apologize to him sincerely from the depth of your heart and ask him to forgive you that you promise not to act in such manner again. As children we must respect our parents because they are our second God here on earth. Obedient to your father will prolong your life here on earth and it also helps a child to prosper. Respect and obedience to your father is a must not optional whether he is rich, poor or average you must respect and obey your father because it is God that placed him in the position of being your father and you can never get or have another father. Once again, I am sorry if my words caused you pains, I sincerely apologize. |

Drone95: I don't drink, don't smoke, don't do drugs and don't eat cola These are rules my dad instilled me when I was young and I would do the same for kins and make it a generational rule in our lineage. My generations high IQ is my top priority to make the most compitent seeds and raise compitent men. If I smoke and drink it will reduce that IQ and I don't want to think like majority of Nigerians 1 Like |

franchasofficia: I'd do that, my dad's my main man. Love him too much to put him down that way, he treats me like a man and is happy how I've grown at my age. His happiness is my top priority as well my family. People in this thread think I'm like the rest boys these days.... Young, silly, childish, smokers, druggists and irresponsible. Truth is I don't like these things, I guide my mind and my heart from the vices of the current world because I'm fully aware it's a evil time to live in. My focus are my goals, becoming the best version of myself, growing mentally, spiritually, physically as a person. Becoming a true man is what I'm after so that's why I'm open to advises. I will apologize, thanks alot 🏆 1 Like 1 Share |

BinamRex: He thinks he can become a man in a hurry. There are a lot of factors that builds up a boy to become a man, little opportunities doesn't make a boy a man, it's the travails that males go through that makes them men. Let him continue 1 Like |

YOU NEED TO GO BACK AND APOLOGISE TO YOUR FATHER. YOU ARE YOUNG AND HAVE YOUR OPINION, HE IS OLD SCHOOL AND HAS HIS OPINIONS TOO. YOU HAVING MONEY AND PAYING THE RENT DOES NOT INVALIDATES HIS OPINION EVEN IF YOU DONT AGREE WITH IT. DONT FORGET THAT WHEN YOU WERE A CHILD, HE PAID THE RENT FOR YOU TO LIVE IN HIS HOUSE TOO, HE SENT YOU TO SCHOOL, LOVED AND TOOK CARE OF YOU AS A FATHER SHOULD, ONLY GOD KNOW HOW MUCH THE MAN MUST HAVE SACRIFICED TO GET YOU WHERE YOU ARE TODAY. MIND YOU, SACRIFICE MAY NOT BE ONLY ON MATERIAL THINGS. YOU REALLY HURT THE MAN. NEXT TIME, LEARN TO TAKE IT COOL AND THINK DEEPLY BEFORE YOU TALK. ALSO BEG HIM NOT TO STOP CORRECTING YOU. LET HIM UNDERSTAND THAT YOU DONT MEAN TO INSULT HIM. |

You have a good conscience that's why you felt bad... I understand. People make mistakes sometimes and from what I read your outburst is not really out of disrespect but tied to the fact those things he said was affecting your mind and you couldn't bear. Your father is just acting out his level of mental transformation... it's fine. That's why you're there, to be better. So don't be hard oh him. Imagine you had children that surpass you in ideology and turn it to disrespect. Handle him with wisdom Paying for rent is something you should be happy about...it shows you're able to take on certain responsibilities from him as a son. It's progress and I celebrate you. Nevertheless, go to him as a father and just apologize except you really have ego and that's not a good thing. Saying sorry when necessary doesn't hurt, it shows you're a person of character and humble but let him know that you know you didn't do well returning that late and you'd work on it but he should stop using certain words and talking about how other perceive you because you don't really like it. 80% of issues longer because people don't want to communicate. I trust you'll do the right thing. From what I see you're a good man! Kudos! |

Op thank God for the kind of Dad you have. Mine would have killed you already and you won't probably be here typing with guts. Because you're 18 you and you helped to pay rent you feel you have arrived. If I'm your dad I'll hustle and give you back the rent, then chase you out of the house. Go live on your own terms. One day you'll need a father. Rubbish. All these kids. Lucky chaps. |

I'm sure he agreed with your response... and received it in good faith ...but to mention you paid for the house was crossing the line. The message he received from that was " I paid for this house and therefore nobody should be telling me what I should do or not do ... including you Dad ... the reason he replied he will say no more until he pays for his own. He will now be avoiding you because he will now feel like a tenant living with the landlord. I suggest you meet with him outside ... some cool spot ... apologize for the remark and let him know you didn't realize probably sent the wrong message. |

Where I fault the father was saying that neighbours are talking and landlord. Unless there is no specific time rules stated before the rent of the house, then I don't think it's anyone's business what time I get home from wherever. But where I fault the guy was rubbing it in your dad's face that you paid for the rent. Naaa. That was too low.. You should apologise to him. He meant well, trust me, but you know how African parents are. They are always concerned about what their friends or neighbours will say or perceive about their children. |
