Former radio presenter and content creator Andrew Kibe has stirred debate on social media after sharing advice to fathers on how they should provide for their families.<\/p>\n

In a Facebook post published on Sunday, Kibe urged married men to hand money to their wives in the presence of their children, arguing that doing so helps children recognise who is providing for the household.<\/p>\n

According to Kibe, the gesture can also counter situations where some fathers are allegedly portrayed negatively despite supporting their families financially.<\/p>\n

\n

“Happily married men: give your wife the money right in front of the kids. Let them see who the provider really is.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

Too many mothers tell the children their dad is worthless and out here selling his diabz just to keep the family afloat.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

Speaking as a formerly happily married puny who learned this lesson the expensive way,” Kibe wrote.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Kibe’s ongoing views on relationships<\/h3>\n

Kibe has built a large online following through his candid views on relationships, marriage, masculinity and family life.<\/p>\n

His content regularly focuses on encouraging men to take an active role in raising their children while challenging what he considers unhealthy dynamics within modern relationships.<\/p>\n

The latest remarks add to his previous discussions on co-parenting, financial responsibility and the roles of both mothers and fathers in raising children.<\/p>\n

Social media users divided<\/h3>\n

Kibe’s post attracted hundreds of reactions, with followers expressing differing opinions on his advice.<\/p>\n

Some agreed that children should understand the sacrifices their fathers make to provide for the family, while others argued that parenting should be based on teamwork rather than recognition.<\/p>\n

Among the reactions were:<\/p>\n

Kevin Mutiso:<\/strong> “There is some truth in this. Children should know that their father works hard to provide for the family.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Faith Wanjiku:<\/strong> “Both parents deserve respect. Provision is important, but love and teamwork matter even more.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Brian Kiptoo:<\/strong> “A good father doesn’t need to prove himself. His actions speak for themselves every day.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Mercy Achieng:<\/strong> “Children should never hear one parent speaking badly about the other. That affects them.”<\/em><\/p>\n

James Mwangi:<\/strong> “I support fathers providing for their families, but it should come from love, not for recognition.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Sharon Njeri:<\/strong> “Kids need to see unity between their parents, not arguments about who does more.”<\/em><\/p>\n

The discussion has since continued online, with many users weighing in on the balance between financial provision, parental cooperation and the example parents set for their children.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
