All these theory sef. Smh.

There's no way you will not both fill the roles of parent to each other at some point in time.

When the man is at his lowest ebb, he will first explain his predicaments to his wife and will rely on her for a measure of parental nurturing and vice versa for the wife too.

When spouses are celebrating milestones, the most important person they look out for in the audience is his or her spouse. That's the role children put their parents o.

Thats right!
But most of the time, the boy will be quick to forget the advice as he keeps consuming twitter contents where some clowns are trying to redefine the role of a boyfriend in a girl's life, plus the amount of dummies he has as friends would determine if he would still follow this advice or not

Raising a boy child aright would do us all a lot of good than some incessant 10000advice from the parents and siblings that tends to fly off at the sight of thick thighs cheesy cheesy

Smh. You are not beholden to a girl who is your friend, especially platonic, what he is implying made no distinction between altar- bound relationships and even platonic relationships, if you are wise and starts with the end in mind, you will know relationships that will likely make a wife out of your special relationship with a girl. To that special girl, you will at some point in time be her 'parent' likewise she to you.

BTW, you don't need to understand for now. Serious relationships take commitments and sacrifice and those two are the essential ingredients in parenting so anyone telling you that you will not make exceptions for that special one is not being realistic.

Love , when you really fall in love, will make you trusting and vulnerable. If you're not then you are not in love. Maybe you are suggesting that he tells his son to never fall in love with a girl niyen.

It's unfortunate that social media often glorifies unrealistic relationship expectations. While it's important to show your girlfriend love and support, remember that some responsibilities aren't yours to bear. Set healthy boundaries and prioritize a genuine connection with her, rather than trying to live up to societal pressures.

Some know this, but some will learn this the hard way.

Whether girlfriend or wife, do not become a parent to her for any reason. You are not her parent and are never meant to become any such. grin

Broski, all this your shalaye is off point and off topic. Don't hide your misrepresentation of a father's advice in long winding talk. The advise is clear and simple.
If you want to simp, do so and advise your son accordingly.

This is a candid advice from father to son. I advertised for Cyber security training here on Nairaland and only males responded and paid. Till date only few females have consulted me on Cyber security. I discovered that most females see relationship as occupation, and poverty alleviation scheme, which is wrong.
Finally it should be noted that when a wise child hears a father giving a good advice to his child, he will quickly copy and save and use the free advice. Simps over to you!!!
