Reality TV star Tuoyo Ideh has expressed strong disapproval of actress Rita Daniels’ decision to allow her daughter, Regina Daniels, to marry while still in her teenage years. He questioned how parents can permit their children to make such significant life decisions without proper guidance or supervision.
Using Regina Daniels’ marriage as an example, Tuoyo stated that it was inappropriate for a parent to give consent to a teenager who may not be mature enough to understand the responsibilities involved. He compared past generations, where parents closely monitored their children’s choices, to the present, where some parents have become more permissive.
Tuoyo emphasized that parents need to take their responsibilities seriously, ensuring that children grow up with proper discipline and protection. He urged parents to avoid being careless and to always provide the necessary guidance to prevent regrettable decisions.
He wrote: “Nowadays parents mess us up a lot. How will your child travel to another country for like three weeks and you don’t know at all? What is your job? Back in those days, our parents knew where we were and when we were coming back home. For example, imagine how Regina’s mum let her go with a man at 17/18 years old – a child who doesn’t know anything. Parents need to do better.”
This criticism comes amid ongoing public discussions about Regina Daniels’
