– For veteran actor, the rate at which young
men now misbehave in public is just
appalling
– He made his feelings known via social
media
– Saying to his sons that they should not
allow the anonymity of social media make
them fools
The rate of moral decadence amongst young
men in our society keeps rising every day
and little is being done by the authorities or
parents to stem this tide.
Veteran actor Richard Mofe-Damijo has
chosen not to take these issues sitting
down. He shared his thoughts on the issue
via Instagram and if you know any young
boy, it’ll do you good to have him read
RMD’s message.

TAG A SON...
Dear Son,
I’m writing to you today because there is no
day “internationally” set aside for the “boy
child”, so, tired of looking on in horror as you
constantly shock and embarrass me, this is
from daddy to you.
I’m shocked at how many of you carry
yourselves here on social media. I am shocked
at the things you L O L at. I am worried at the
way you speak to and about women.
I am frightened at the kinds of things that
inspire and motivate you.
I am concerned that the women who get your
attention are not the virtuous, brilliant types
but the frivolous party, skimpily clad ones.
I am disappointed to see that the pictures you
fall over yourselves double tapping are not the
inspirational quotes or of clean, beautiful
modest women but of women with their
breasts, thighs and bottoms spilling over.
I cringe at how many of you blatantly use
swear and curse words at women like it makes
you cool.
I am distraught to see that many of you
insinuate that a man who loves and stays with
one woman is a wimp, that a man who
publicly displays and speaks about his love for
his woman is a “jew man”, that a man who is
more interested in deeply spiritual and
intellectual pursuits should be shamed…
I am worried son, deeply worried.
My dear son, being uncouth, indecent,
unintelligent is NOT cool and contrary to what
you think, the man who stays on social media
looking for naked ladies to validate, smart
people to shame, brilliant people to tear down,
celebrities to attack are NOT men but little
boys battling low self esteem issues.
A real man loves God and is not ashamed to
show it. He loves and respects women. He
does not ask for nudes and if any misguided
woman sends him her nudes respectfully
deletes it and not use it as a blackmailing
tool. A real man reads, yes, he reads a lot. He
picks his mentors wisely, thinks before he
speaks and reads his comments over and over
before he hits send.
Dear son, do not let the “anonymity” of social
media make you a fool rather use it to shine
and be kind, reasonable and sensible at all
times because that is the man I desire to see
you be.
Love,
Daddy
