Nigerian comedian, Woli Arole has shared his concerns about the type of children being raised by the current generation of parents.
In a candid Instagram post, Arole contrasted the parenting styles of today with those of older generations.
He noted that parents in the past were known for anointing their children, praying over them at midnight, and even taking them to the mountains for spiritual guidance.
According to him, the results of those dedicated efforts are visible in the achievements and character of that generation.
In contrast, he criticized some modern parents for focusing more on nightlife, social media gossip, and online disputes than on nurturing and guiding their children.
Reflecting on the potential impact of these behaviors, Arole wrote: "I fear for this generation. Our parents put anointing oil on our heads, prayed for us at midnight, took us to the mountain—see the product of those labors.
Some people in this generation are going from club to club, life full of gossip, dragging on social media. What will be the product of their kids? Shisha BABY!!!!"

His post has sparked conversations online, with many followers debating the influence of modern lifestyles on the next generation and the importance of intentional parenting in shaping future leaders.
