Still not a good excuse.

In this day and age, even in well-off and developed nations, 2 kids is what people go for. Talk less of a shithole like Nigeria.

If people in USA, UK, Germany etc. are having only 2 kids because they think, despite all their high income and stable employment, that that number of children is the amount they can provide the best for with their large incomes plus generous government support, why will someone in a shithole where jobs are unstable, incomes are low and government is determine to frustrate your life be having 4 kids "because my wife needed a girl"?

Needed?

For what?

A 3rd child might be a reasonably acceptable mistake, but a 4th is just irresponsibility and foundation for indirect child abuse except one is making over N3m per month in Nigeria and living modestly on the Mainland.

If one is living on the Island, I would raise it to N5m. It would be N1.5m per month for someone not staying in Lagos, Abuja or PH.

I suspect you were not even making up to N600K per month when you were working, why have 4 and put such burden on yourself?

Now you are sharing peanuts across the mouth of 4 kids that would have been slightly more to share if it was just 2 kids. Education would be low quality and poor for your kids because you cannot afford it. God forbid they are sick and you need quality healthcare. Your children will be hustling when they grow up to fund their needs.

Giving them a poor start in life! You are lucky they are all boys, if your wife had her wish fulfilled, that is how young girls turn to Olosho when parents can not cater for them.

The excuses you gave do not carry weight! Having more than 3 kids, at worst, in Nigeria is an irresponsible and backward mentality. Something that is prevalent in the North of Nigeria. We can see the eventual result with their Almajiris, Okada/Keke Napep drivers, Boko Harams and Bandits.
after all the insult and then, that is the way all Nigerian are, what did u achieve in all this, is ok , I'm given them the best ok, and they are in a better school, God forbid ur wish for them will not come to pass, just look at what is coming out of ur mouth, chacha at all the insult, no advice, I don't want to insult u or lay a course on u, is of no use to be, I wish u well, the worst thing any one can do to me , what u just did, by insulting my kids, I don't take it, insult all u want I don't care, but my family, is well, I don't think ur married,talkless of having kids , because if u do , u won't be talking like this

Like I said from Ground Zero (0).

ITF+ (A+ is also CompTIA's advanced type for IT Fundamentals albeit more focus on computer components especially on the hardware side of things) - (CompTIA and ISACA have certifications for this level, albeit ISACA is expensive compared to CompTIA).

Network+ (or Networking skills) and Security+ (for securing networks and infrastructure) are advanced levels offered by CompTIA.

ISACA groups its own as ITCA - Information Technology Certified Associate.

These certifications can be gotten from multiple CB (Certification Bodies), but you can start with learning about these courses by registering with Udemy, Alison et al to learn them very well before sitting for the exams.

There are sites you can learn them for free and they are some you can pay as low as 5,000 or little above that but you will need to write the exams and earn the certifications.

That is the only way you can prove that you have the required skill set.

Firstly, there was no insult in my write-up. Someone telling you facts you don't want to hear or highlighting your errors is not insulting you.

Secondly, you could not be possibly be giving them the best in Nigeria when you are unemployed, except you were making serious money before you became unemployed. I am sure about this.

Thirdly, I never made any bad or evil wish against, nor insulted, your children. I just told you what you and your wife's irresponsible choices can likely lead to. That is a probability statement, not a wish or insults.


If there is any negative for your kids, it has definitely not come from me, it has come from their parents' choices.

It is irresponsible having more than 2 kids in an uncertain place like Nigeria.

I have a poor family member who make less than N60K a month living in Lagos having 3 kids. This is someone that was consistently asking for "assistance" quarterly from family members when he had just his two kids to feed, all of a sudden having a third and asking us to come for child dedication. I DID NOT GO!!! I am not celebrating irresponsibility.

I have another that stays outside Lagos with income of N65K a month having 4 children, I had to ask him "Why?" "For What?". He was telling me he liked it raw and children are a blessing from God. Now he lost his job and na so so message for "assistance" to feed his kids; highlighting how they are suffering and he can't cope. Na me like am raw? Let him go to God for blessings.

It is irresponsible having more than 2 kids in a shithole like Nigeria and it is a foundation for indirect child abuse if you are not ridiculously well paid and/or rich! You will not be able to give them the best life that modern times requires.

In the modern times, things are more expensive and you need to keep up with the times for your kids to be competitive in future.

Can you provide them with good education, which costs N500K+ per child per year in Lagos, or you are sending them to useless government schools with curriculum from the 80s?

Can you afford to buy all the textbooks and educational material all 4 need?

Can you feed them nourishing and variety of meals 3 times a day?

Can you provide 6 to 8 hours of light at home everyday?

Can you afford to get them 4 android phones so they are digitally current? If one of them loses his or is mugged, can you afford to replace it?

Can you afford 2 laptops for 4 of them to share, even if you can not get them 1 each? When they get older and spend more time away from home, they will need one each; can you afford it?

Can you buy them 10GB data each per month?

Can you afford to now pay for their time in university? Even if it is some shithole State-owned one in the North? (Travel, books, clothes, accommodation, feeding, events, nights out etc.)


These are critical and essential in modern times and are becoming more expensive, while pay in Nigeria is decreasing in spending value because of Naira devaluation. Don't cover up and say I insulted you by stating that fact!

Calculating all the needs falling out of those questions to give your 4 kids "the best" in Nigeria, I am already seeing a minimum cost of N4m per year to fund these 4 kids. Where you even making that in a year before you lost your employment?

It is a parent's responsibility to work hard and ensure their children have better prospects than they (i.e. the parent) had growing up. The next generation's life must be better! You and your wife have created a probability that it is less likely for your kids. I hope it is not the case, but with the way Nigeria is going, I know where I would bet if I was betting.

You have no business having 4 kids!

All these do not answer any of my questions. They are just covering of irresponsibility and the associated felt shame.

You have no business having 4 kids and it is irresponsible having that much kids in Nigeria. People in more advanced countries who earn 10+ times what you earn, and who live in countries where government support them with tax credits or welfare when unemployed, are not having more than 2 kids. Why will you be living in a suffering country, earn peanuts and have 4 kids?

Another thing is that raising kids actually inhibits people from having free/loose capital for side hustles that can help improve their lives, then you now piled 4 on top yourself to feed with low salary?

You are one of those people irresponsibly adding to Nigeria's burden. We don't have enough resources for the millions we already have, yet we are doubling in population every 20 years to have more people we cannot take care for.

Now we are holding our stuuuupid asses wondering how we got bandits when we allow a region of the country that is dearth poor to reproduce, like rabbits, children that they cannot afford to raise because they say Allah tells them it is their duty. They produced and raised pure animals without any self-development or humanity development.

You and your wife just doubled those to replace you in Nigeria. Irresponsible! You are part of our problem.

Later you will be screaming government cannot give you good schools, healthcare etc. We are struggling to give such to the ones we already have, people like you are producing more? Later, you will be shouting the government is borrowing too much and wondering why they are borrowing? And you are saying it is none of my problem?

Furthermore, someone with your thinking, writing and grammar levels should never boast of being "far better than me". That is just stupidity!
