Nigerian Dad’s Do Not Hug Their Grown Up Son True Or False? by nuellaisaac(f): 9:13pm On Dec 27, 2017
Have you notuved that most african dads Yes it is true that Most Nigerian dad’s do not show affection for their son not to even talk of hugging them and this has left them no choice to becoming close to their mums and becoming mummy’s favourite.


Son: “My Dad only showed affection for me when I was far more tender and now that I have come of age, he no longer show affection. Things we used to do, games we used to play and places we used to visit we no longer do that again now he focuses on work and when he comes back he eats with his eye’s glued to the Television I think my dad has lost this affection thing for me.” -David-


Is This Good Or Bad?
I think it’s bad reason because as a child, dad’s becomes used to carrying their son hugging them and taking them out thus help improve their self esteem as children you’ll see them appreciating their dad telling their fellow friends about their dad but it’s obvious that when they grow to a stage Fathers tends to stop this affection lifestyle they’ll say, well he’s gradually becoming a man and all these affection stops.

In our world today son’s feel they’re being left out especially when dad’s affection gear towards their daughters this also reduces their self esteem when they are in public seeing other dad’s hugging their little son they’ll picture when they where young how their dad spent time with them, places they visited together and how he hugged them. then another picture of the “Present” comes into their mind and this picture makes them feel neglected. This gradually reduces their self esteem and trust in their dad, makes them wish their dad hug them and show that affection like when they where young Note: This becomes a secret as male children tends to hide their feelings they will not tell it to their dad except for those that are soft and emotional.

This gradually distant them from their dad making hugging awkward at this time when there is no affectation anymore making them feel safe telling secrets and seeking counsel from close friends rather than their own dad all because they feel their dad no longer cares or have affection for them and this has also led to the vast increase in Cultism, joining Bad Gangs (Gangsterism) and the likes exposing them to the wrong side of life they now become a product of their own friends or environment. They keep telling theirselves “Dad no longer have time for me” and when they have issues they now feel their dad is very far from them and Dads still Don’t have time because they feel the son has gotten to a stage where he can cater for himself which is very bad.

Nigerian Dad'sIt is good for Dads to hug their son’s this help grow their mind psychologically and also helps them become better people in society. Always find time for your son hug them do not makethem feel insecure to relate their life pressing issue with you.

Note: Not only in Nigerian Dad’s or Africa alone, even it happens also in all other part of the world today. If you feel It refers to you please re-adjust your time and build a stronger bond with your son.

Share from their pain, laugh, Feel sad, become moody or bright with your son and also encourage your son there’s a part of you that you gradually share with your son, so if you are a dad today please take this very seriously always find time for your children go out with them on a retreat or what have you. talk laugh share from their mistakes and do profer solutions too this also help in building a United Home and Society. Thanks for Reading Through.
Drop your opinion but kindly Address the issue not the person thanks

They don't need to hug to show affections nau, the scolds, warnings, advises and the awesome "that's my boy/son!" sentence is sweet enough. tongue tongue tongue
