Guys, Can You babysit Your Child For Few Days? by wristbangle: 6:15pm On Aug 31, 2015
The responsibilities of a wife in a marriage centres more on the welfare of her family in terms of cooking, washing, upkeep, and taking care of the children is one of her top priority.

However, an unforeseen circumstances or emergency situation may arise that would put the husband in no position than need the service of a nanny to help babysit the child

So guys can you employ the responsibility of a nanny to help take care of your child in the absence of your wife or you will compromise by taking the child to nanny home?

When you grew up in a dysfunctional family these are questions you'll find yourself asking.

Taking care of your kids huh embarassed maybe for a bastard fathered by you...... then no qualms.

With the high rate of child rape and all other insecurity if I don't have the time to be with my child I will take her to my mother. Some nanny of nowadays are just something else.

Some guys grew up in a stable family but their ego will not allow them to do this.

I believe in the traditional family setting, forget what you see in movies or what you read in foreign books. A man should ALWAYS take care of his family.

That been said, desperate times call for desperate measures. In those times, do what's in the interest of your child.

The thing is some guys see the job as solely their wife responsibilities and so if their wife is not going to be around, they will take it to nanny or a friend's place.

Op no vex o but since when has taking care of one's child become 'baby-sitting'? Tagging it such makes it look like work.

Bros, Imagine a 6month old baby in which u have to babysit for few days as your wife need to travel for urgent matters. Can you combine it with your workload? smiley
Re: Guys, Can You babysit Your Child For Few Days? by cococandy(f): 7:07pm On Aug 31, 2015
If you like, sell the kids because the few days that their mother won't be around to take care of them because it's beneath you to take care of your children.

Does she even need to be away before a father knows he should also care of his children?

Fathers most time provide the financial support for the family as some of them see babysitting their child for a moment as not their responsibility. You should know what am talking about especially the ego guys.

In the stories and on nairaland alone.

In real life, the wives also work to contribute to the home.

Misplaced ego..... I must say.
Demonstrating an over-inflated and equally destructive ego towards the vital part of fatherhood which helps in creating an inestimable bond with your own kid is appalling.

Yes I know, that why I put the condition "most time".

To me, I feel there should be balancing. That is the essence of marriage. To fill each other's gap, to help and support yourselves. I see it as no big deal to fill the vacuum of babysitting my child in her absence but it will become annoying if this scenario has become her norms.

You know some Nigerian men and their mentality... some of them will feel somehow that their wife is leaving the care of their child for them. And some don't know how to take care of a baby especially when it comes to changing diaper and feeding the baby. So it's better I take the baby to my mum or my mother in law. But in a situation whereby both grandmothers are not disposed then my husband has to take care of our baby since I don't have any other option. But I have to let him understand why he has to do that to avoid him viewing it from another angle. Ima na unu bu umu nwoke siri ike.
