Should Nigerian fathers be more open about their emotions with their sons?
Context
Many of us grew up with the 'man no dey cry' mentality, where fathers were mostly disciplinarians rather than emotional supports. If you're a dad or grew up with a father figure, do you think being an 'emotion-coaching' father—someone who actively talks through feelings—would change how the next generation of Nigerian men handles stress and relationships? How do we balance teaching toughness with emotional intelligence in our current cultural climate?
