while growing up as a child ,i noticed that i was so closed to my mother more than my father ,and i usually find it very easier to confide in her more than my father, i can easily run to her for financial help without fear even when i wanted to get money from my father i often go through her to seek financial help from my dad but then i felt that it was an infant mentality even when i see my friends do same in their homes .
more so, while in the university i noticed also that 75% of those that use to call their parents, only their mothers and even when they want to pay their school fees they also complain to their mothers instead of their fathers. however i have tried to make some researches about all these preferential treatments given to mothers than fathers but still i am not convinced about my findings and that is why i decided to bring in the question here in the forum because i know that it will be well explained here and hopefully i will get all the answers that i want here .Therefore my question here is WHY DO PEOPLE GIVE PREFERENTIAL TREATMWNT TO MOTHERS THAN FATHERS ?
because i have been in this whole process where I can't really talk to my dad regarding most things but would easily share them with my mum, I think I can really air out my opinion on this.
The main reason why young people confide more in their mom is as as a result of the fact that most fathers don't give their children the needed attention that is expected of them and even from a tender age the children have always known there mother as the closest person to run to in times of need. And let me also say this that if most mothers are financially stable, you might find out that most persons will never go to there father for anything at all.
It's sad that most persons have not experienced what a fatherly love should be and that most fathers don't even know that the are lagging behind a great deal in carrying out their responsibility to their children. most of them are seriously aggressive towards their children and the only thing most persons can think as what there fathers did for them while they were young is that he disciplined them and I feel that this is a great abnormality that has eaten deep into the fabrics of our society.
