Film maker Mary Njoku has indicated the role mother’s play in the lives of children, describing it as the most impactful.
She advised men to to apply caution in their wishes as regards life partners, employing the analogy of animals, the lamb and tiger.
Njoku said most men want to give birth to tigers despite marrying lambs.
She explained men generally desire to have intelligent children who’ll grow up as successful adults that’ll weild authority in their various life endeavours as well as the society but want to marry ‘simpletons’.
According to her a tiger can only beget its kind. So, to birth ‘champions of industries’ they must necessarily marry women of authority because mother’s impact on children cannot be overemphasised.
The actress argued a mother makes the most significant impressions on children as such urged men to ensure they marry women that could fit ‘perfectly’ into that role.
She wrote,
“Dear Brothers, you want your kids to be brilliant, go-getters, strong, Champions! You want them to be Tigers of Industries. The society should feel their impact. But your wife has to be a lamb.
“Oga! FOWL NO FIT RAISE TIGERSI Na only Tiger fit raise Tigers.
“So get ready to send your lambs into the jungle of life.
“A mother is the most impactful mentor a child can ever have. So be careful what you wish for.”
