RE: Dad vs Boyfriend

in HiveGhanalast year

Many of these norms are indeed fading away. I think the dynamics has also changed quite a bit, Dads are more receptive and open minded now than before, making efforts to get to know the boyfriend and vice versa.

Sort:  

We are modernizing... And that's a good thing. It is best to know beforehand who your daughter is with than hearing it from outside. It's often late when they get pregnant

Right. I think there's more good than bad in modernizing. On the other side of spectrum, boyfriends should respect tradition while also embracing modernity.

There should be a balance. Respect for norms is what gives us the African identity.
