A responsible husband is a man who have a legitimate wife and married to her according to her tradition and custom, who also father the children born by the wife

He is called a responsible husband because he is willing to carry his family responsibilities by providing
Shelter
Food
Pay hospital bills
School fees and other unplanned and hidden expenses

He should be able to perform his manly duty on his wife and keep her warm

If he is very lucky to have a supportive wife, who assists him financially to run the home

Then he is a very fortunate man

I've heard different stories of couples having misunderstanding on the basis that "you are not a responsible husband/wife."

Parents in the house who is a responsible husband?
Responsible husband attends to daily running of his home by performing financial, marital, etc duties
Re: Who Is A Responsible Husband? by guobe: 9:13am On Nov 15, 2022
As the name implies.A husband that is responsive to solving issues in the marriage is a responsible husband.

A responsible husband is one who puts his family first in everything, and takes care of their needs when he can.
One who provides for his family without complaining.

A responsible husband is one who makes himself available at his childrens school events and activities both curricular and extra curricular. He must be involved.

He is one who gathers the family to pray and fellowship with one another.

One who leads by example.
Thanks.
I wish my dad could read this, he's so supportive financially but absent in my life event or is it because he's a military man.

It's not because he's a military man. He just doesn't care.

Such parents don't see any reason to be there cos they believe they've provided the basic needs of the home therefore they can't be bothered about any other thing but they don't know it goes beyond all that. They don't know they need to be involved in every activity and events in their childrens life as that is what makes the children feel that fatherly love.

My dad was a uniform man too but he always created time to be at every functions we had.

I remember when I did my baptism at age 9. He took me to church that day with my immaculate white dress, beautiful laced gloves ( that he bought) and lovely brown patent shoes. I was feeling on top of the world that day. That's just one of the so many occasions my dad graced with me and my siblings and It created a very strong bond in the family.

Due to the absence and lack of communication, I tried to talk to him but he sees it as a form of disrespect from me.
I called to talk to him two days back and he told me he's busy that they're preparing men to enter bush and till now I've not received his call for him to listen to me.
He's only attended my Baptism and Handing-over program in 2016 as an outgoing YCSN President in my Secondary school and that's all.

He was absent at my graduation in Sec Sch, absent at my Matric and Graduation in high school. Sometimes he doesn't even come home for Christmas.

Dear Rich Folks, money is not everything; we kids need attention and communication too not just your wives.

So sorry to hear this.
Don't worry, just learn to accept him like that and look forward to his retirement days when he'll be finally home and then you can catch up on all the lost times because I don't see him changing any time soon due to his busy schedule.

Take your mind off it.

Re: Who Is A Responsible Husband? by pansophist(m): 12:31am On Dec 13, 2022
A responsible husband is one who protects, provides, and leads the family. Now, this point seems simple, but each of them is a whole topic on its own.

1. To protect includes but is not limited to physical protection, a secure environment, what they are exposed to in form of knowledge, and a sense of psychological safety. Also, women have a heightened sense of danger, and would you blame her? she is physically weak, will care for children, and is the one that gets pregnant. The kind of safety women desire is generally something men do not understand, but its a thing for women,

2. To provide would be to eliminate the burden of survival. For most of human history, women have never had to work for money, it is a recent phenomenon. Women were taken care of by their families, before transitioning into their husband's houses. Women that work intensely carry the risk of adopting masculine traits, the same way a man that doesn't work and is taking care of will be effeminate.

Just as women know a simp no matter how wealthy he is, men can detect masculinity in women. Each gender has a biological lens to view the other, a lens the other can not view themselves from. So it is actually a superpower to be able to see yourself through the lens of the opposite gender.

More importantly in this providing thing, where the problem has gotten so bad is that lots of women are now too expensive for the average man. 'Needs' (shelter, food, clothing) have replaced 'want' (Brazilian hair, iPhone 14 max, the Instagram life). In this regard, most men can't meet the provider requirement due to the increasingly materialistic nature of modern women.


3. Lead. This is self-explanatory, because to lead, you must be able to protect and provide. ''Protecting and providing'' is the responsibility, while ''leading'' is the privilege. There is something lots of people get wrong about leadership. They see it as a place of fun and no responsibilities. True leadership is not fun, it's a tough job. When you see the CEO of a company, many just assume he is swimming in cash, but he probably works 60' hours a week, and hardly spends time with his family.

You cant lead with an empty pocket. If you decide that your kids have to go to a private school, then money kicks in, and you have to pay for it. If you want to move to a new flat, the only reason your wife and kids will not object is that they aren't the one paying. He who plays the drum dictates the tune. So for a man to lead properly, he must be able to provide, they go hand in hand.

I only want to point out that the materialism problem has existed since the 1980s and is unlikely to go away. It appears to be common currently since formal polygamy has been prohibited in Southern Nigeria and has been replaced with paid adultery services, which appears to be the more lucrative choice. Adultery will never be over in Nigeria as long as material goods are in great demand, but there aren't enough financially secure men to supply them, and there aren't enough jobs in Nigeria for individuals to make a decent life. In the 1980s, a young girl might simply marry a chief and enjoy the existing wealth with less worry, and everyone would be content. America has the same problem, but in a different way; many women want to be baby moms to guys like Nick Cannon, Elon Musk, and others, who each have roughly eight children. What's going on in America is essentially polygamy without the label.

Finally, most young women do not have a difficulty having basic accommodation, food, nice clothing, and a quality mobile phone. What they seek are excesses.

You just added extra meat, spices, and onions to my point. You're correct. Polygamy didn't died off, it just wore a new dress, eyeglasses and boxers.

Davido and all these celebrities are polygamous, because at the end of the day, you're with more than one women, legally or not.

And I've always written here that women want polygamy. If Ned Nwoko announce right now that he needs two more wives, millions of ladies will apply. Woman can tolerate unfaithfulness in a man, but not poverty.

You are perplexing yourself, the said monikers you mentioned are already hacked, I also received tons of email from them but didn't replied or else I will fall victim too.

If you approved & replied any accounts who sent you email with some virus text written on their profile signature, personal text, Twitter, YIM then you would also fall victim just like the said moniker you mentioned.

We can't know the legit hacker who fabricated all this cos when he/she successfully hacks a Nairalander account he/she also uses the 'hacked' NLanders accounts to send email/pms to others, then the hacking Keeps on growing from their.
