About this listen
In this episode of Beyond the Norms, we dive into one of the most unspoken but relatable realities in Nigerian homes — the entitlement mentality of parents and the heavy expectations placed on their children.
From the “we trained you, now it’s your turn” mindset to the pressure on fresh graduates to start providing for the entire family, we unpack where these beliefs come from, why they persist, and how they shape the lives of young Nigerians today.
It’s honest, raw, and necessary — a conversation about love, obligation, guilt, and finding boundaries in family relationships.
🎧 Tune in as we ask: Do Nigerian parents raise kids for love or for repayment?
