FATHER: My son, your mother was unable to answer the question because women are weaker vessel. But l, your father, will prove to you the difference between a man and a woman. My son, the ball is in your corridor, score it.
JUNIOR: Daddy, all humans have equal features physically. Are all animals the same?
FATHER: Exactly! They have the same features among themselves, hence we humans are called "human animals" and the other animals in the forests are called "animal animals". So, my son, just as we have the same features physically, they also have the same features physically.
JUNIOR: Daddy, you have fallen my hands, big time. You have repeated mummy's failure. You have disgraced me totally just like mummy.
All animals don't have the same features physically. Animals like tortoise and snail have Shell, bat flies like a bird but has teeth like the other animals. Bird flies just like bat but has beak. Some animals have hairs and others scales. Can't you see they don't have the same features physically? Where is my toy game?
This is why the youths now control the elders. Henceforth, when you received your salary, bring it to me so that l can tell you how to spend it and what to give to mummy for our monthly feeding. I will tell you the amount we will spend to enjoy ourselves etc.
FATHER: Abomination! I repeat, it is an abomination! A child can't dictates or controls his or her parents.
You can't rule over me! It is not done in anywhere. We are Africans. An elder dictates and tells the child what to do and what not to do.
JUNIOR: Says who, Daddy?
In our country, is the child not controlling the father?
Is the National Assembly who is the child not controlling the presidency who is the father?
Sharing and deciding how the budget should be lavished.
Between the National Assembly and presidency, who is the child and who is the father?
Daddy, shine your eyes!
