what is your relationship like with your dad?

[Somaliman50]

ive noticed in most somali families, the mother is a matriach in the realest sense, everyone reports to her for emotional comfort. but do you guys have a sense of closeness with your father? i understand girls can get along with their fathers a lot better than boys, but is there an exception with you? do you guys think somali fathers are not very emotionally attached with their sons?

my dads my best friend

It's a rollercoaster with the pops, some days we're real cool buddies, I mean ever sense of it, and some days he presents himself as a parent, gets me confused at times , all in all, best dad in whole wide world.

Naynaas, of course, your daddys little girl

Rabshoole, interesting. Is he different with your siblings?

For me, being a middle child, I think I get the least attention from my pops. But generally he chooses not to be on the soft side when he deals with me and my brothers. I think he wants to teach us to be strong for our families and not just some big old softie. I can't even recall him ever crying

[Rabshoole]

Abaakar, I'm also the middle child of the family, The pops treat's everyone accordingly, but he favors his only daughter of the family a bit more. The younger boys waa iska caadi, they too business balancing out school and work besides iyaguna waa mom boys

He's dead. I miss him everyday sometimes ever hour.

He's someone I look up to, someone who motivates me to succeed, what can I say my dad is the greatest dad ever!

I have a great relationship with my dad. We talk about everything.

my dad has been through a lot in his life and through out his trials and tribulations he turned out to be the best father I could have ever wish for alxamdulilah. When I went on vacation for two months in somaliland I even missed the times that he used to scold me.
Lets take advantage of the time we have with our parents.
