You implied otherwise. You said nurse specifically. You didn't say nurse or doctor, neither did you say health care worker!
Was doctor or health worker mentioned in the post? Did I tell you I could work as a doctor but not as a nurse? So, how did I imply otherwise?

Ok, if someone says "I won't be vice president even if they paid me a million dollars."
What does that tell you about them agreeing to be President?

If she is the one that is wrong and left, nobody can come retrieve any child from the man.

Am still alive though. So wetin concern bastard!

And to top dis, the process of going about this from the family to reclaim the child is a very tough journey. Not with a man that knows his onions.
And that practice is gradually fading away.

I appreciate.
QuinQQ:
And you want to put yourself in that situation? Whereby the lady can dump you any time and your children are hers?
Also, remember, children born outside marriage are called bastards. So playmates can rightfully call your children bastards without it considered an insult!

All over the world the default position is that the children stay with the mother even when they marry and divorce, how much more when they're not married at all. Even embassies won't recognize them for immigration purposes if you are not married to their mother. Society makes it a big deal when a man is not married to his child's mother.

So because you caught your partner having a good-time with another man, you will send her packing!

Many people still don't understand marriage.
no dear!

I will forgive her till she give birth to another's man child for me and I will take care of her and the child. And even if she cheated on me the 2rd 3rd and 4th time. I will always forgive her and welcome 🤗 her back because I don't respect my surname

Your cousin should be wort at least half a billion to spend N60,000,000.00 on the wedding (otherwise na big f..l) so no lele!
Meanwhile, marriages break now and then, especially were the couple are incompactible!
Best of luck to the parties!

It's a foolish custom to spend so much on marriage. Marriage should entail the courts only, if it lasts ten years then you can celebrate lavishly if you so wish but to celebrate before you've done anything is backwards.

That's only backwards societies that still think that way.

A birth certificate has both parents listed. Children will need the consent of both parents to travel.

What does that tell you about them agreeing to be President?
If someone says...'I cannot do this', the question that should be on your mind is: 'why can't you do it'? You should understand why before drawing conclusions.

So, to answer your question... Saying you won't be Vice President even if you're paid a million dollars means you have a choice to become the VP, but choose not to.

The most reasonable thing to do is ask why the person doesn't want to become the VP. What if he wants to quit politics? What if the position of the SP is more attractive to him even if it is lower than the VP? What if he wants to become the President?

Unless the person confides his real reasons to you, you have no right to assume it is what you think it is.

Well, many societal norms and practices can be considered "foolish" and "backwards", doesn't prevent them being the practices that obtain and what we have to work with.

To get visa for your foreign child to bring the child into your country on the basis that you are a citizen, it is easier for a mother not married to the child's father than for a father not married to the child's mother.

So if Obi says he'll not accept the position of VP, you'll wait for him to say it explicitly before you know he's only interested in the presidency?
Likewise if a man says he'll never be in a female-dominated field like nursing, you'll need a soothsayer to tell you he'll readily be a doctor? Okay o

Marriage will soon be outdated.
Outdated indeed.

That word is archaic and the definition is rooted in foolishness.

We have DNA testing, we can readily identify paternity. Civilized societies understand that.
