- Daniel Regha has advised parents not to ask children what they want to eat, insisting that kids should eat whatever is prepared in the house.
- He argued that only on special occasions or when a child is unwell should exceptions be made. His stance sparked mixed reactions online
Controversial Nigerian social media commentator, Daniel Regha, has once again stirred reactions online with his latest take on parenting.
In a post shared on X (formerly Twitter), Regha argued that parents should not be asking their children what they want to eat. According to him, giving kids such choices is “just wrong” and not an ideal way to train them.
He maintained that unless it is a child’s special day, or they are feeling unwell and need encouragement to boost their appetite, parents should decide what meals are served in the home.
“As a parent, adult, or legal guardian, you know what’s best for kids — they do not. Allowing them eat whatever they crave and whenever they desire is no way to train a child,” he wrote.
Regha further emphasized that children should eat whatever is prepared for the family, regardless of whether the household is rich or not, stressing that proper upbringing involves discipline and structure.
His comments have since sparked mixed reactions on social media.
