"My 9 year old daughter forcing me to like her statuses. Have kids they said."
Commenting on the story, a Nigerian father, Chukwudi Alexander, advised fathers to always be there for their children.

Netizens did not hesitate to share their various opinions in the comments section.

"You think this is cool but it isn't. A kid should only have a phone they bought themselves."
Nate said:
"Ntate wa tla e etsa taba. A cute moment between you & your kid becoming a social sciences research study, haai!"
Lorraine said:
"Why are the parents so touched? A phone goes beyond social media, its for school & safety, like reaching you when there's a need. There are apps to monitor their activities mos. Side note, your daughter ke bitso wa ngwanaka."
Cyamthanda said:
"My twin nieces are 9yrs old they send me about 50 stickers on whatsapp, and I have to like them or else!!!!!! Then they do 2sec voice notes but I love it hey? I love it so much."
Ramsey said:
"Don't give her phone she's too young bro, don't let her learn from social media teach her at home."
Wara said:
"I dont view statuses and when someone refer to someone status I just view and move without commenting she would be always angry for me yoh."
B47Ance said:
"But honestly why does a 9 year old even have a phone and WhatsApp? At that age they don’t need statuses, likes or online validation. They need to be playing, reading, sleeping early and being bored enough to use their imagination. Phones that early just rush them into adult spaces, adult pressures and nonsense they’re not ready for. There’s nothing a 9 year old urgently needs WhatsApp for that can’t wait until they’re older. Childhood is already short no need to hand it over to the internet."
