There is this scenerio i usually observe with my landlord and his children which always makes me curious and also raises unanswered question within me. This prompt me to post this here.

My landlord is idoma by tribe and has six grown up children, three boys and three girls. He should be in his late fifties or early sixties. Here is the issue.

This man despite having grown up boys and girls always do his chores by himself while the children will be lazying around engaging in trivial discussions. This man will wash his clothes by himself while his girls, the youngest being twenty years of age will be chatting with friends in the compound. This man will go to fetch water with kegs using a wheel barrow every morning while the boys will sit outside doing nothing.

Meanwhile the water he fetches is used by every member of the house. This man can go up to three to four trips while the boys will be busy arguing about Manchester United and Chelsea with friends.

What baffles me the most is that they see nothing wrong in this because the man doesn't complain and his wife, their mother is also witnessing everything.

My question now is, is this an acceptable norm in their (Idoma) culture? For a father to be doing the house chores while the children will be playing. I'm asking because where I come from, it is unacceptable.

Why don't you help him sometimes?
In my own opinion, you're worse than those children. It is your type that will rather take photos of a dying person than actually saving them.

Senseless

Whenever you see him carrying a bucket of water, and the children are there misbehaving as usual, quickly rush to collect it from him, making sure the children sees you and if after then it's still the same. It's either you continue helping whenever you can or you peacefully mind your business.

this exact scenario is playing out where I reside, I feel like just beating them up each time

Maybe the kids know something. Or landlord has his reasons. Or they're testing ps5 controller on him

Broda oshi sho gba e.mind your buisness

Ogbeni mind your business

mind your business. the reason for way, terrorism, arm robbery, boko haram and even this spread of corona virus is because people dont mind their business

Maybe he's using those chores as exercise. My dad used to do a few chores in the house but not everyday like the one Op described. Anytime we want to assist, he always refuses. He said he's doing it for his health since he doesn't go to the gym or jog around the streets.

Beat them up for? All this beat beat mentality.

90% of Nigerian guys/men won’t last upto 1 year in America or Europe before being thrown into prisons. Y’all have a very fvcked up mentality about every sphere of your life.

My mum use to be like that ,no one can please her with house chores but soon your landlord will stop ,age will make him stop ,......my mum doesn't even sweep anymore because there is no more strength

see how people full.the thread, I wonder what they were expecting to read

useless.

Lolz.
As long as they are happy.
Bros 4get dem..

As 4 d children it will caught up with dem.

OverSabi 101 What makes another mans internal affairs your topic of discussion Its his home, and its his life. Simply mind your business because you literally have no idea whats going on inside that family, and making observations based on your prospective.

crackland:
And his wife, mother to the irresponsible children, is witnessing all of this and not saying anything.

If a woman does not have any regard for her husband, it will be foolhardy to expect the children to have any regard for their father.

The problem is almost certainly coming from his wife.

please i want to ask who between the husband and the wife who do you pay the house rent to. it is possible this can be the manipulative power of the wife. to subdue the man at the expense of the family, maybe the wife might be the one that built the house, even if not she might want to be the Lord of the family by seeking to suppress the will of the man. am very sure that those children obeys their mother very well. evil family pattern.
