Why Do Children Tend To Love Their Mother More Than Their Father? (15964 Views)
(1) Go Down)

I believe most of us love our Parents equally but, we tend to be a little closer showing our Mother our love better. But why in some homes the children after making it in life come back to take better care of their moms than their dads? Of course, I know that some fathers are what I call deadbeat dads who must have bottles of beers every evening at the expense of hungry children. But there are alot of father out there who care so much about Thier children. Another thing we need to understand is that Nothing brings a man more happiness than having a successful son, seeing his son sur him. In this context, fathers often raise their sons with a firm hand, instilling lessons through tough love and challenging environments. But many of us don't see this, we only focus on hash and hard training. Many children still don't know that some moms manipulate the children emotionally to believe they care for them more than their fathers do. My TAKE As a father, apart from been a responsible father, father should always try to provide things what their children want and give it to them directly. Father should no allow someone else to take Thier efforts glory. Also, Give your kids hugs, kisses, hold hands, rub their backs, or snuggle with them. Let the children see this. Most of nowadays mother are selfish and only care about themselves alone Source: obembet 30 Likes 2 Shares |

Many children still don't know that some moms manipulate the children emotionally to believe they care for them more than their fathers do. In most cases, no mother is manipulating any child to believe they care for them more. Every child would grow to figure out their parents. As a parent, your child would figure you out someday. Then they will quietly pick a side. When the kids are good to their father, I haven't seen anyone accusing the mother of manipulating the kids to love him. Neither do they accuse the father of manipulating the kids to hate their mother. But when it is other way, it is the mother. Many of the guys ranting online do not rate their fathers highly and their mothers have nothing to do with it. Momma-worship is fuelled mostly by MEN. You hear things like, 1) no one can love you more than your mother. 2) You can insult me anyhow, but if you insult my mother, blood will flow. 3) I want to make my mother proud. 4) If I make money, I will spoil my mum, that woman done too suffer. I have seen even hardened redpillers make these aforementioned statements with same mouth they use to say no woman can love you. Are their mothers not women? #Logic101 Why don't they ever show this level of loyalty and ion to their fathers since they know fathers are sweet? Not too long ago, there was a Twitter thread of guys insulting their friend's late father. It was mostly men endorsing it. They said it is brotherhood condolence. Something they wouldn't tolerate if their mother was the dead one. Father's Day, rather than go offline to make it memorable for their fathers, they will stay online, jumping from one vag**a topic to the other and blaming feminism. Whereas 99% haven't called their fathers in 1month. ********************** Please leave women alone on this overflogged topic. Start from your fathers. Show them love. Start singing of how no woman comes close to your father. Until then, male advocacy remains a reaction to female's. Never as a standalone or genuine love or concern for themselves. 103 Likes 14 Shares |

At a young age they are more inclined to their mother due to the special attention they receive. Father's also play their role but as times go on, a mature child can actually tell who contributed to his or her growth and may likely not pick a side if both parents are responsible.

Because father's don't spend time with their children. Most father's just come home sit down and demand food. And watch tv , and shout at the children oftentimes. Most mothers even the working ones make time for their children. 111 Likes 6 Shares |

Raising children requires emotional connection as well, normally the person who's always there is the one you tend to be close to, and it's easy to form an emotional connection to the ever present one, providing for your children alone isn't enough you need to be emotionally available as well, I could tell my mom anything, it's as if she's a fellow guy, including my dating life, but my dad, he literally knows nothing about me, infact throughout your life he might not ask you how was your day even once, lol, if I ever become a dad I'd do the opposite of everything my dad did.

I don't joke wit my mama. While growing up mom can give me her last card just to make me happy, she doesn't mind getting loans for me. But Popsy despite having in abundance will tell u his gat no penny. I wouldn't call him Stingy though, cos his only being careful about his finances so the family won't go broke. That I was able to figure out later. There is a connection between mom nd I, we share secrets and tell eachother alot. But Popsy was always forming the macho man, carrying muscles around like Johnny Bravo and keeping to himself. As a man paying my bills now, I understand wat my Popsy was actually going through back then which I failed to grasp as a child/teenager. Unfortunately, the did as been done.

Thats true When the child is ill, its mostly the mother that is by the child When the child is having emotional issues, its the mother that talks gently to the child, that gentleness bonds the child more. When the child is having financial needs, the mother will try her best to ensure the child is okay financially. Sometimes some African Men neglect their children, they do not even try to talk to them in gentleness to understand their children. They may have money, but choose not to prioritize the child's financial needs. And they do not build the capacity of their children It makes sense that the child will be closer to the parent that is present, that nurtures more and is more understanding. dauntless15: 10 Likes 1 Share |

Mother are closer to children most times while papa goes out to hustle, sometimes for days. In the course of those outings, he can get distracted along the line with other women, so giving lesser attention to his home. Even the one with no extra affairs still get abandoned. So in the process, women can be speaking bad of their father in children's presence while the father is away and likely unknown to him. It's mostly a continuous situation. Women like comfort life, they will do anything to get kids to their side when things get sweeter unless as a father you no gree and fight back before things get worse.. Same applicable to some women, when they leave their kids earlier and they are bond to their father. But most times it's the father own always at the bad end. 5 Likes 1 Share |

That is how nature intended it to be, A mother carrys a child for 9 month, the child eat from what she eat, the mother supplied all the needed nutrients for the child to develop, when it time for the child to leave the womb, it the mother that pushed it out, the first cry is heard by the mother, the mother is the first face the child see, it the mother that breast feed the child, put the child on her back, for the first 5 years of the child life, it the mother that's in it and you say the child should not be more connected to the mother. As a father just do your best for your child and never compete for a child love against the mother. No matter how bad a mother is, the child will always love the mother

Even in the animal kingdom, children love their mom more than their dad. It's just a natural phenomenon.

Men don't have so much time to spend with kids unlike women so they easily tend to get close to their mothers and are much more comfortable around them than their fathers. As for me, I love both equally even though my dad dumped me and my sibling for 20 years before his demise. Blessed memories 🙏🏾

You didn’t identify the real issue. The main problem is children trying to fight for their mothers. If your mother married a useless man and they separated, whether she left him or he abandoned her, and he still did his best for you in his own capacity, then you shouldn’t be taking your mother’s role in your father’s life. Allow your mom to fight her own battles. Relate to your father and pay your dues, show respect, as long as he did his best as a father. His role as a husband is not your business. While it’s painful that many are unable to learn much from a father who failed as a husband, it’s still a battle beyond their jurisdiction. We must realise that the separation of parents already gives one party, usually the mothers, an edge over the other, and children must not be oblivious to this fact. 9 Likes |

Father can never win this side of the game. Most men had to work extral to provide, making you tire and emotionally unavailable. And if u want to be emotionally available you will not meet up with finicial demands. Another pressure. So as a man, take care of yourself and prepare for future. And take good care of your family... But don't neglect your health 12 Likes 1 Share |

Beremx: Because in the animal kingdom, it's the mother in most species that raise the young. The father's role is to mate, and then go away. He won't recognize the offspring most of the time. ( And sometimes the mother eats the father after mating, so the children don't know their dad lol. Prime example is the praying mantis) Some species have both parents tly raise the child eg some bird species 36 Likes |

Kids spend more time with their mum, nursing, attention and listening ears 🤷. Father's are more importanta. Inheritance, life skills, general well being and most sacrifice 💯. Men build empires, conquerer, exploit for heirs. 1 Like |
