DF are you yapping??

FACT: I did NOT ASK TO BE BROUGHT INTO THE WORLD!! DAMIT!! angry angry They did of their own volition and so should shoulder the responsibility!!!

Pls if you have that mentality that because you 'suffered' for your children, they owe anything, you better repent!!

IS it wrong to support ones parents in old age?? Absolutely not! BUT IT IS NOT THE CHILDREN'S RESPONSIBILITY!!

Using myself as example, I love my mum more than anything in the world and regularly send money home to her. But the truth is, she doesn't really need it!! Why? my dad is late but before he died, PLANNED himself and my mum. ITs not as if he was stinkingly rich, but was able to put up a house whose rent is more than enough to care for my mum.

And that something your backward Africans have a very hard time appreciating, PLANNING!. Its just to bleep and bleep and bleep and then spurn unneeded children like rabbits only to look for who will help them shoulder their irresponsibility. Then we wonder why we're so poor and backward. yeye
Well, your opinion, your problem. As for me and the sensible ones here, we owe our lovely parent everything. In fact, they should depend on me for everything. As you are not thinking that way now, how rich has that made you. Jonathan, obasanjo, dangotes parents depended on them, does that make them poor. Pray for God's blessing and stop taking your parent depending on you as excuse oga.

We are talking about needy parents youre talking about honor killing in Pakistan, guy i' m out of here. No time.
You threw the words "honor" and "morally right" in that anyone that does not agree with your position will cut across as being a "dishonorable child" or a "morally bankrupt child". I used those examples to point out the fact that using those words do not exactly make one's position right.

What treasures do u want to lay up for them at old age ? Make sure u re laying treasures for ur kids. Hope u know that there is such a thing as appreciation.
I don't know what you read and neither do I know your school of thoughts... The write up itself is thought provoking.

I mean why should anyone want to give birth to children he can't take care of?
Am happy for the little treasure my father has in store for me
Am now challenging myself never to deposit my sperm on any woman if am not ready to train up the offspring.. I would rather donate it (the sperm) to a childless couple

Dear Ehix89, I get your point of a good man leaving an inheritance for his children But the Arthur of this piece now has a reprobate mind, if God doesn't intervene in his life, he will write more terrifying things in future.Let God save him.
Please Don't listen to such. I am sorry for sounding like that. But.......!

. @Woodcook, it is our responsibility and the right thing to do when the strength of those who nurtured u are gone... How about ur parents dumping ur butt and saying its not their responsibilty... That gay idiot just passed a devilish message across that we should abandon our parents cos its not our responsibility and here are some people trying to paint it in another light...call a spade a spade... The mofo just said... ABANDON UR PARENTS... Anyways I won't cos its unchristian and unafrican and its un-deltan and its anti-Urhobo and its anti-Warri and its Anti-Me... @Woodcook, tell that mofo I said he should bleep to hell
Thank you for this write up. I wonder y people are painting this devilish write up by bisi as white when we are know the word "abandone " Is what he means. Plz if it is not our responsibility to take care of out parents in old age then whose responsibility is it? Bisi is a pained dude with no moral upbringing which is evident in the trash we writes up and I wonder y people pay heed to him

Nigerian gay activist, Bisi Alimi

I think we Nigerians are the ones to blame here. People like bobrisky and this dude don't deserve the attention they get on SM.

That being said, the bolded alone should tell you he's a moral misfit and as such doesn't understand what a family is or how the African family work. I can't take him serious whether speaking in favor of family values or against.
At the bolded: do You know with this you've totally failed a logical argument?

First, as much as you want to judge, his sexuality is absolutely none of your business.
Who are you to determine who is morally right and not to give a piece advice?

Didn't Christ say he who is without sin should cast the first stone?

At times I laugh at many so-called Christians.
It seems you forget what the holy bible says about sin.

Whether you lie, Steal, call your neighbour a fool, make unnecessary jokes, fornicate, are gay, you all are doomed for hell!

Yes! That's what the holy bible says.

So, except you're without any of this sin, please you're in no place to determine who is morally fit and not to give an advice.

And to the article, Alimi might have sounded harsh in. Conveying his message, put if you rea the article and took time to comprehend, you'll realise he's totally correct!

I an several people have taken time to summarise his CENTRAL MESSAGE.

Peace!

I would rather hear an uncomfortable truth than a pleasant lie grin most nigerians are ussually in denial of the truth.

My dad was doing good. But he got ripped off by some scammers and became financially down. Now you and that cretinous idiot are advocating I should not help him? I yearn you fall into misery in your old age and you have children like Bisi Alimi who take it through the anuus and won't raise a finger for you. Bloody retarded thinkers
May all these curses go back to you and your family.

With all the insults in your post, you're not even better than Bisi. Your peeps failed woefully in training you.

It's not a curse. It's karma going to take its place. Just like you support the cocksucka Bisi in advocating for people not to show love to their parents who took care of them for scratch. You deserve to have children who will treat you the same. As for me I love my parents. Even if you feel they failed woefully in training me, I will continually show them love financially and emotionally. As for you, you are in for some shitty vicious cycle grin grin

and who told you can they don't take care of their parents in the west? Beyonce recently bought a multi million dollar mansion for her mum.
the only sense I see in what he said is that most Africans raise their kids for financial gains. that's very common to fathers though. an African mother can sell her properties for the sake of her child even if she wouldn't gain from it. that's why only a wicked person wouldn't take care of his/her mum to the fullest
Re: It Is Not Your Responsibility To Take Care Of Your Parents -Bisi Alimi by iamrealdeji(m): 11:48am On May 09, 2017

all of you acting all western with your black African brains don't realise that even the westerns do take good care of their parents. but foolish Africans always try to adopt the western culture in a wrong way. their black asses just swallow anything that wants to sound western without using that black brain. go and find out about how good American celebs take care of their parents. Beyonce recently bought a house for her mum. I'm sure she wouldn't support everything this gay black ass said

read my other comments and I absolutely support the part where he talked about Reno Omokri's point. I used to say that as well that African parents that see having of children as investments don't love the kids. its an absolutely primitive believe and that's why many people marry early in fact I happened to discuss with some local folks and all they could say was that they want to get married on time to rip the kids off on time(ounje omo) and I used to really condemn the idea and I used to say it that people that think like that are just very lazy. but that gay guy shouldn't discourage children from taking care of their parents. we must take care of our parents no matter what they've done to hurt us. what the guy posted could change the mentalities of millions of people. many people are rich but their parents are hawking firewood around. does that sound great? I'm asking you. dude is just trying to make people in such category feel they're getting it right

It just makes me sick when Nigerians abroad raise silly topics and act all western in terms of stupid ideas that present day westerns even refuse to adopt. These Nigerians in diaspora would never copy the west by inventions and innovations but by stupid believes that have gone extinct among the white folks and disgracing us abroad. As much as i dont subscribe to parents raising kids for financial gains in the future which is the main reason why many local folks marry early i see that as wickedness and laziness. But no matter what our parents have in mind or are doing to us,we shouldnt think about not taking care of them. I totally opposed this guy because he could change the believes of some and have reasons not to take care of their parents. My problem now is that what have these western wannabe Nigerians done to better the world at large like the white folks? All we hear from them are irrelevant and controversial statements that would rather wreck the world and families. No wonder why the whites call them apes,monkeys,etc No wonder why Donald Trump threatened to purge them back to their country and be useful for their country for once

Or you just have a problem with Nigerians abroad Period.

I don't see what that has to do with the topic. Delusional nairalanders always fighting imaginary western enemies.

I am sure people insulting him didn't read his write up_they read only the heading, but it's normal for Nairalanders grin.

Truth is bitter, very bitter...
He was a bit hard, went off at some point but he made some sense.

Modified: Before insulting, take your time to read the post without bias. Forget he is gay, sieve out his message_then comment. If you still don't get the message, then you need to walk in the shoes of some Nigerian first sons/daughters.

This set of people labour for years training their younger ones(that may number up to 4) and helping out their parents too. The guys most times would keep on struggling to please his family, pausing his own life. He might finally get married and start his own family in his mid-late 30s.
The ladies sometimes move on to get married, the innocent son-inlaw might end up carrying unnecessary expenses.

Everyone should make plans for his/her retirement. Don't be overly dependent on your kids. Some kids will give, some might not even have to give, some will totally disappoint you...it happens.
It's clearly stated that if you have _give, just don't fall for emotional blackmails aimed at ripping you off. But then _the black man doesn't read.
another black man with black brain. It is obvious you want to marry early to start milking your kids on time too. what's the big deal in marrying at one's mid to late 30's? different stroke for different folks. maybe you are trying to say the first born might be willing to marry early but postpone it cos of family blah blah. I don't know

I have no problem with the westerns,you probably do. my problem is with Nigerians in diaspora like Bisi Alimi disgracing us out their with their silly contributions,how are Nigerians in diaspora Westerns pls? where did I make any statement that maybe depicts fighting of Westerns? I instead praised them indirectly. I would praise Nigerians in diaspora more if they can be useful to the world,their country and make us proud rather than disgracing us. so Bleep off and don't mention me again
