Experienced Nollywood actor, Kanayo O Kanayo, has issued a caution to parents regarding accepting financial presents from their children without ascertaining the source.
The actor delivered this advice during a recent event that was widely circulated on social media.
In a widely circulated video clip, Kanayo encouraged parents to instill a practice of inquiring about the origins of their children’s possessions, emphasizing that their indifferent approach could potentially nurture corrupt attitudes in their children.
He recommended that parents should be cautious when receiving lavish gifts from their children, particularly if the children are not meaningfully employed.
“Your daughter is 20, she is using a phone of N1.5 m, then she gives you N100,000 and you fail to ask questions about the source. You wouldn’t live long.
“That is what is killing a lot of parents. Your son who is not working returns home with some money or a car, and you do not ask questions. I’m warning you”.
