‘Train your daughters not to depend on men’ – Simi tells parents
Simi advises parents to raise independent daughters, stressing the importance of financial self-sufficiency and rejecting reliance on men for security and worth.
Nigerian songstress Simi has offered powerful advice to parents on the importance of raising independent daughters. In a heartfelt video shared on her Instagram, Simi urged parents to teach their girls the value of financial independence rather than fostering reliance on a future spouse. She criticized the common mindset of parents praying for their daughters to marry wealthy men, calling for a shift in perspective.
"Parents, teach your daughters to be self-sufficient," Simi stated. "Help them understand that their worth is not tied to anyone else providing for them. True security comes from being independent and knowing they are complete individuals on their own."
Simi emphasized the importance of economic empowerment for women, encouraging parents to instill confidence and strength in their daughters as they grow, so they can stand tall in their own achievements.
