When I was still in my late teens, a friend of mine told me about a certain question his mum asked him, the question goes thus:

"Who do you love and cherish most between I and your Father."

To which my friend replied saying he love and cherished his father more, his mother countenance changed and she felt downcasted thereafter.

Now my fellow Nairalanders, even though I wasn't able to give a precise answer to my friend then, I still think the mother shouldn't have asked that kinda question, thence, I might be wrong. But still, if that were to happen to any of you guys, what would be your reaction?

I agree.

What an awkward question for a parent to ask a child. Children shouldn't be put in spot to choose between parents.

The question would have been better if directed towards eliciting more about what the child likes (or cherishes more) about each of his/her parents. And not to pick sides as it were. It would be to point out qualities you find endearing about BOTH of them. And, to NOT to pick whom you love more.


That's a terrible imposition of a question.

nt healthy at all, mayb d mom is feeling some kind of guilt and insecurity in her.

Nice points, I guess she wanted the boy to love her more than he does his dad.

[color=navy]it seems so, she is seeking for approval from her son. That translates into insecurity and low self esteem. Normally, she should not need to ask that question.[/color]

She wan cause kata kata for the house and the child mind.

it's not right in any way,ds is hw hatred startd in a house,bt 4 a real mother who loves her child ds shdnt be a reason 4 u to hate ur child,if u even want to tnk of d day u gave birth to him/her

That mother got what she deserved...But I think your friend could have done better...though the question is shocking

Hmmmnnn....who does that?
That mom should check herself. The question isn't healthy at all. Personally...Twas while I was still small dat I choose one but now I love them both. Come to think of it....both of my parents are unique, special & caring in their own way.

It's not too good to ask your son or daughter whom he or she love most .. But by the way the DUMP ones will say Dad or Mom but the WISEONE will say I love you equally

.

Apologies....but that is a strange and ridiculous question.

Indicates something is wrong in the relationship.

Infact, why should such a question be asked?

Mumu question

Nonsense











She suppose go ask google now or irunmole

It's not right, she's putting her child in a difficult position.

Any child who loves his /her father more than mother


is






SICK



who can be compared to a mother?



Father that can abandon you at anytime, marry a new wife n have hundreds of you?

My mother first, my mother middle, my mother last


Father is just to provide money.. and once the child is able to fend for his/herself financially


Father is not of any use!

it iz nt right, but I blive she has ha reasons

No, it's not. But your friend goof sha. He should have said he loves them equally.

It's not healthy for a mum to ask her children such question.
But when such occur is best the child remain silent even say he love them both.

Such question is not healthy at all.

Wrong question. Perhaps if such a question shld com up, d ansa shld b 'i love u both'... Its nt ryt to let any of ur parents knw u luv one mor dan d oda

Women and unnecessary trouble. Why the question in the first place?

NOO
