“Each of your daughters is worth 3 sons! Having a daughter prolongs your life. She will not get into as much trouble as your sons…
“When my father was ill, my sister left her job to stay with him. My other sister left her business to work shifts with her. None of us boys left our business or work.
“Yet you foolishly complain that you have only girls? You have hit the jackpot!
“Each of your daughters is worth 3 sons! Having a daughter prolongs your life. She will not get into as much trouble as your sons.
“She is less likely to be disobedient. When she leaves your house, she will remember you. If you are too old to leave alone, she will move you into her home, matrimonial or not. Go and thank God for having daughters!” -Richard Mofe-Damijo
