This is the question I always ask myself,though some of them are widowed,but most of them are divorcees,and some as a result of premarital flings. And what makes it so disturbing is that the society have accepted it as a norm,something that was seen as abomination 40,50 years ago. 1 Share

There's more to it... Some where victims of rape or deceived by the male gender. I kinda respect a single mother who chose to bear the consequences of her actions or situation than one who commits abortion to escape the shame... Being a single mother takes more than you know... Those are supermoms. The question is, where is the irresponsible father!!? 8 Likes |

Some are divorced or separated after been married or dating guys that deceived them with a flashy lifestyle only for the girl to realise that the guy is struggling financially later. As long as Nigerian girls are unduly attracted to money and other arcane things, single motherhood would continue to exist. 1 Like |

An adult female makes a decision to sleep with a man she knows is "irresponsible" and when the consequences shows up, she refuses to take responsibility for her actions, rather she pushes the blame away from herself and then claims "he decieved me" ![]() What a load of crap! ![]() Unless a woman was raped or widowed or divorced (which is arguable), any adult female who had concentual sex and ends up a single mother only has herself to blame, period! Yes! It takes two to "tango", however if one refuses to tango and chooses to walk away instead, will a "tango" happen? Let's be real here... When sex happens and there're consequences, it is the woman who bears the most of it.... She's the one who has to quit school due to pregnancy... She's the one who suffers the morning sickness and dizziness and the likes... She's the one who gets the most of the stigma... She's the one who carries the "evidence"... On account of this, shouldn't she be the one who should be more careful? Smarter? Wiser? I mean, if you and I plan to do something and the consequences surfaces and I know quite well that if it goes wrong, I'll bear the most loses, guy see eh, I will sit down and plan for a very loooong time, just to make sure nothing goes wrong, cause I know that if it does, then I'll suffer the most... But do women do that? No! Rather, they sleep with guys who can't commit and be responsible, guys who clearly are just with them for the fun and what's worse is that, they sleep with these guys raw! No protection, no drugs and likes, and then try to absolve themselves from the consequences, mtttwwww... @OP In my opinion, the reason why there's a rise in the number of single mothers is "acceptance", the truth is right or wrong really doesn't matter (contextually speaking), as long as people accept it, then it'll become something that is seen as "normal"... Check out exam malpractice for instance, there was a time were a student who was caught cheating in an exam was shamed and punished, he/she was seen as the black sheep for being caught in the act, but right now, it has gained so much acceptance to the point where it is those who don't cheat in exam that are now seen as the black sheep... Am I saying single mothers should be shamed for being single mothers? No! All I'm saying is, TAKE RESPONSIBILITY & BE SMART ABOUT THE CHOICES YOU MAKE... 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Favfables1:i agree with you completely. Don't you think this shows how irresponsible MEN are? I am also a guy but i don't have a girlfriend that we are into sexual intercourse. Reason because I'm not financially ready for all that. I can't make love with a girl without condom. Even with condom you have to be extremely careful. Why do we have lot of irresponsible men engaging in sex without condom? Even under 20 boys are having unprotected sex. Some of them forced these girls to it. Some of them rape these girls. See how they dress now sagging trousers showing their dirty boxers in the public. Go out there and see how boys abuse these girls. You needed to see how they do body shame these girls touching the sensitive part of their body. They see these girls as sex objects and take advantage of them. Go to correctional centres across the federation to see how useless and badly raised these boys are. Infact, i can't continue The society now have too many irresponsible Boys/Men. I'm not surprised the level of yahoo, armed robbery, rituals, pick pocket, drug peddling/addict, rapist et al. All these boys are badly raised. The society put so much responsibility on the girl child abandoning the boy child. Now we've seen the consequence. Our girls are no longer safe, little children are not safe either, some of them even went as far as using their biological mother for rituals IF THE BOY CHILD IS WELL TRAINED, THEN THE SOCIETAL PROBLEM IS HALF SOLVED The earlier we change the narrative the better 9 Likes 5 Shares |

Generally, it's like a lot of men got persuasive skills in them... It's just an inborn thing... The length some men can go just to win a woman over is out of this world... If some ladies can just open up to tell how persistent some men have been asking them out, ticking all the right places in the box, promising and doing stuffs that sounds like the one only Angel Michael himself can deliver.... But when those ladies agreed, and the end result becomes pregnancy or child birth, they takes off... And when people sees such lady in her predicament as a single mum, it looks as if she was so easy to fall victim of irresponsible guys... maybe it has been 8 or 9 months the guy was trying and doing everything nice in the book just for her to say yes... Though some women can be deceived easily especially the greedy ones that got swerved with flashy stuff and sees relationship as poverty alleviation program...I read about one here on Nairaland that a boy deceived.. Dude took her to a phone Shop with a promise of a new phone, took the phone outside and ran away..and she was caught..She doesn't know the man well. In summary, most times it was not always their fault that they found themselves a single parent.. 3 Likes |

Spherical77: A while ago, I said that one of the reason why there's so much moral decadence is because they're many "help a female" related campaign ((which I'm not against)) and almost none for males, in other words, males are neglected and the result is what we see here today, but I was bashed by our very beloved nairaland feminist ![]() ![]() But you made a wonderful point by the way... 3 Likes 2 Shares |
