A Nigerian Twitter user has strongly opined that a mother plays a pivotal role in shaping the future of a child.
The user, identified as Idris, asserts that a mother’s impact on a child’s life is unparalleled, serving as their primary source of education and molding their character from the very beginning.
According to him, if a mother fails to instill the necessary values and virtues in her child, it becomes an arduous task for any educational institution or external entity to rectify those shortcomings later in life.
In light of this, he suggests that if a man desires pious children, he must be deliberate in his choice of a life partner.
In his words, “The mother serves as the first school for every child. If the mother fails, it becomes difficult for any institution to rectify it. If you seek pious children, choose a pious woman to marry.“
