Father's Don't Get Appreciated Enough For Their Sacrifices Compared To Mothers. by Aabheaven(m): 11:22am On Dec 06, 2023
You people hate your fathers. Stop the "he wasn't present" BS

300 level, there was no money at home, I couldn't pay fees or lodge rent. My dad was getting depressed but tried to hide it.

A few days to resumption, he and I drove to his friend's house by 8pm. The man was at a meeting, but we waited till 9/10 thereabouts.

When he was done, he attended to us. I suspected the reason we were there, but it had never happened before and didn't think it would.

My beloved father said to his friend:

"My son will be resuming school next week. For now I don't have any money to send him back. Look at him here. Please lend me Bleep amount; I'll repay as soon as I get it. He's in 300 level. He has 2 years to go."

I wept inside because I had to witness my dad borrow money to send me back to school.

A lot of you come to talk bullshit about your dads, about how he didn't bond and other stupid things.

If your fathers had carried you to the places they went to earn, borrow or beg for money, you wouldn't say they didn't turn up for you.

I understand how easy it is to fall into mummy's bosom and never crawl out. But you think provision is just dropping money in accounts and in mummy's lap?

Do you know how that money was gotten? Do you know how many people didn't go to school because their father's died?

Bleep bonding! Bleep being present!!

All I needed from my father was being alive to provide for me. I didn't need him toiling around the house and gisting with me.

Many of my friends lost their fathers at an early age. I was praying everyday for my dad to come back home. That was the only form of presence I needed.

Shame on you if you become successful and abandon your father because of stupid emotional crap. Especially when you're a man.

Majority of those fools who maltreat their fathers cannot mention anything their fathers did wrong to them.

They just biasedly hate their fathers because of their mothers' bitterness towards the fathers.

Treat your father based on who he is to you, not based on who he is to your mother. After all, your mother is not a saint towards him. If you should punish him for his wrongs to your mother, why not also punish your mother for her wrongs to your father?

Well, every son who is stupid enough to biasedly maltreat his father will become a father, and every daughter that does same will probably have a son that will later become a father.

Nobody hates their dad for hating sake, it is because he was simply not there for them when he was needed, there are so many deadbeat dads roaming around the streets already mouthing off that the kids will look for them when they are grown to their own detriment, of which kids of these days are very much aware of which parent is hands on with them.

You can't impose your kind of father to others whose dads are as deadbeat as a stench of a dead rat. Do you know what it means to be a deadbeat? You think a deadbeat dad can do one tenth of what your dad did up there? Of course not

Only the ones that deserve it will be treated well.

You are wrong. Fathers are appreciated except for some fathers who abadon their children when the children needed them. If you treat your children well, they will treat you well too. The same goes to mothers.

there we go again with the misunderstood word Sacrifice

Its not a SACRIFICE from a parent to look after his children, its his/her duty and no one else. You cant claim sacrifice on this you are meant to be doing, You only sacrifice on this that were put across you by someone's action

Your own kids its your duty both by nature and law

I know that some mothers tries to turn turn the heart ❤️ of their children against their father but the children are not blind. They know the truth. Only time will tell. It's about who spends more time with the kids, it's about who cares.

Well, maybe they have a genuine reason to show more appreciation. You'll do yourself a lot of good by not letting the actions of others define how you treat and appreciate your parents. The fact that an artist bought a car for his mother or barely talks about his father could mean that his father is late.

Some were pressured by their parents to buy them cars because Iya Risikat's son in Italy just sent a car home for his mother. Some have had to resort to fraud to meet their parents' unending demands.

If your own responsible father is alive, don't let herd mentality or social media validation define your relationship with him. If you have contented parents who would rather provide than take from you, no go do pass yourself oo. grin A simple 5 minutes call with some parents means a whole lot.

From the stables of "girls nowadays are not like our mothers," or "they don't make them like they made mama anymore".


When it's time to shame younger girls, you will remember all your mums did for and were to your lives.


In the absence of a female target, you develop amnesia and start insulting the same mothers for your fathers. It suddenly doesn't matter. All of the questions about "who will sit in the front seat of the car - wife or mum?"
"Who are you getting a car for first - mum or wife?"
"If your mother slapped your wife, who will you defend?"
"Who will you give your last cash to if they asked for it?"
"Who will you give your first salary to - mum or wife?"
"Who will you save, pick, follow, listen to between your wife and mother?" And bla bla bla bla bla.


Now we're back to demoting them?

A'ight. Anything to pander to fellow men and gawk their deeks, I guess.
