Kwabena Kwabena – Many children don’t relate well with their fathers due to mothers’ influence

During an interview on Hitz FM, popular highlife singer Kwabena Kwabena challenged the common perception that some fathers neglect their responsibilities and fail to establish strong relationships with their children.

He asserted that, in some cases, it is the actions of mothers that inadvertently create barriers between fathers and their children, often motivated by their desire to be the favored parent.

As a loving father himself, Kwabena Kwabena expressed deep affection for his children and emphasized that it is highly unlikely for any parent to harbor hatred towards their own offspring. He suggested that when a man appears to have a strained relationship or is absent from his children’s lives, it is often due to the influence of the mothers, accounting for approximately 90 percent of such situations.

The acclaimed artist went on to explain how some mothers unintentionally engage in a competition with fathers for their children’s affection, raising questions about why both parents cannot equally share the role of being cherished by their children.

“I am a father, and how I feel within me about the children I have, and how I love them, I don’t think anyone hates their own children. If you find any man in any situation where he looks as if he doesn’t have a relationship with his children, or he is not around, mostly 90 percent it is caused by the mothers,” he stated.

Drawing from personal experience, Kwabena Kwabena revealed that he, like many others, initially held negative sentiments towards his own father until he matured and established a meaningful connection with him. He also emphasized that women often fail to recognize the long-term impact of such dynamics.

Reflecting on his upbringing, the musician candidly admitted that his mother, at a certain point, realized her mistake in prioritizing her desires above fostering a healthy relationship between him and his father.

“At a point, they compete with the men to become the favorites. You are both parents, so why would you want to be their favorite? We all grew up not liking our fathers; it was until I grew up that I developed a relationship with my father. And women don’t see the impact of these things… My mum was guilty until she realized that she was wrong by wanting to get everything for herself.”

Kwabena Kwabena’s comments shed light on the complexities of parental relationships and emphasize the importance of fostering healthy dynamics between both parents for the well-being and emotional development of their children.
