Perez99:My broda thank God u have a lovely Father.For Mumsi may her soul RIP. Bros ur a lucky Guy.He sacrificed a lot for u guys.Looking good you think is a chicken change.Assume ur dad looks the way you want him,do you know how many cultures that would have trapped him. As far as he looks neat and healthy be grateful. I rember my father when we were small was driving a Peugeot Wagon while all his mates were driving Benz and all flashy cars,rember wen my dad was mocked for his Car at Abuja was insulted by a fellow colleague but it NVR moved him.The friend had more than 10 brand new cars.well 48 years now the friends majority are shadows while some doing well but my father's property worth more than 800 Million ,till today flashy cars don't move him,The flashy car using bought for him by my kid brother. Your father grew up from a humble background and please u can't change him and don't try to change him from wat makes him happy.Dont even try to burn anystuff even only son.Love him bros and never try change wat ever gives him happiness. .wat if he dresses like Tai Solarium(LOlL) |

God bless you for this post. Couldn't have said it better. This habit is common to old men who have sacrificed a lot for their family at the expense of their own enjoyment that it will be difficult to change. I could easily relate with it. Mercychen: |

He,s conservative...just let him be, same here with my dad , he don't care about clothes, thier believe is wearing fine clothes make people feel they are proud due to the fact they are rich..they just want to be humble...my brother na thier style just focus on yourself let Him be..mine have come to accept my dad the way he dresses...from my pespective, dressing that way remind them of thier little beginning |

Please leave the man alone. Allow him dress as he sees fit. You didn't mention your tribe. (Not to be tribalistic) But back in my secondary school days my best friend (till now) is Igbo is father is a wealthy businessman. If you see him he doesn't dress well as he should. One day I summoned the courage (as a teenager) to ask him why he does that. Baba had a hearty laugh (inside me I felt I had goofed and made a fool of myself) but he replied as said as a man he doesn't have time for flamboyant lifestyle. That the money he is making is for his wife and children to live the life he can't live. Because that is were his honor lies. My respect for him grew the more. And I have noticed this with our Igbo folks it's common amongst them. I'm not saying it's a bad thing neither is it a good thing. So sir let your old man be. He may not be the flashing type like my own old man. (If that man dress Waka for road you go feel say na my padi) ![]() |

I refer comfort to fashion so maybe your father I like that |

You and everyone else has been buying him cloths but no one has asked him what kind of cloths he likes. It's one thing to buy him a " fashionable" cloth but another thing to get him the kind of cloths he's comfortable wearing. I'll advice you ask him what kind of cloth you should get him. Inform him you want to change his entire wardrobe, he should tell you the kind of cloths he wants. Let him make the choices, use the opportunity to discard the old cloths but the choices should be made by him. He is not a child and old habit can't be changed overnight. |

Perez99:stop overstepping your boundaries. You can't be wiser than your dad. Please let him be and face your live. Something his better half couldn't persuade him to do is what you're struggling to achieve. If I may ask, to what end?? At this juncture you should be concerned about building your future because your dad has done his successfully. If he was given to overdressing probably because he wanted to be catching sugar babies do you think you will go to school?? Bros e don do abeg. Stop making a mountain out of a molehill. |

My fathers own is worst. He uses rope as belt. His pension alone is close to 300k and we also give him money with house rent here and there he collect. He’s a very rich man yet dress like a poor man... One day I ask him why he still wear one of his very old shoes looking so shabby. He said when I grew old I’ll know why. I’m still surprise at his response. |

Perez99:Your dad is doing what keeps him happy, stress-free and what gives him peace of mind. I share the same mindset and I think I got it from my mother. I prefer to dress quite simply, all the time. Showy clothes seem to make me uncomfortable. |

Since his friends have accepted his mode of dressing, let him be, it will look somehow by forcing him to do what he does not want to do. |

The man is happy with the way he dresses let him be. |

Perez99:As long as he isn't putting on tattared clothes when stepping out. He is a smart man. He is of the belief/knowledge that people judge other people finance by their fashion appearance at face value. So, what he does is simply to confuse other people trying to put him in a financial class, thereby fitting in with the rich and poor and not getting unnecessary attention. |

Oh God! My dad does this so much I yelled at him one day when he wore one of his very old faded cloths. Worst of all, he has new shoes too but prefer to wear his old ones. Especially his old palm sandals. And same here money is not the problem. But as soon as I realized it is what it is, I apologized to him and life goes on. Just as long as he is happy. I still convince him once in a while when I am visiting. Sometimes he listens, sometimes he doesn't. But is still try. Long as he is happy and enjoying his life, let him bro. Cheers! |

Perez99:I had to mention you. Perhaps someone else has given you this advice. Why not buy or make clothes similar to the one that your dad loves wearing. Just make the exact type. |
| Re: Help!!! How Do I Change My Father's Mode Of Dressing. by Zealoy(m): 1:53pm On Nov 20, 2021 |
Bro sorry to say this but ur father is a ritualise one of his task is never to wear a new cloths, there's a man over here, this particular man has so much money but since I know him the only thing he wears is short and bathroom slippers, u can never see him put on trousers or even shoes but on shorts and bathroom slippers only, so my dear this thing is bigger than you know |
| Re: Help!!! How Do I Change My Father's Mode Of Dressing. by wpadmin: 1:54pm On Nov 20, 2021 |
Perez99:Do it slow and steady. Buy him like 7 new clothes and minus 2 of his old clothes that he has not worn for a long time. He won't know how he is left with only new clothes. |
| Re: Help!!! How Do I Change My Father's Mode Of Dressing. by Solatium(m): 1:54pm On Nov 20, 2021 |
Perez99:Simply,Go into his room check through his Wardrobe ,remove all faded and out of date clothing,pack them in a bag and take it away from the House.. No be weyin him see he go wear |
