Writer, life coach, and social commentator, Solomon Buchi has issued another piece of advice to parents, especially mothers on how to raise their children.
In a recent post he made on Instagram Solomon advises women to take a break from their careers for at least seven years so that they can properly care for their children.
He claimed that dual-income households are damaging to the family unit, as parents abandon the welfare of their children to chase ‘financial gains’ and leave strangers to raise their children.
Such consumerist culture, according to Buchi, leads to “traumatized kids”, and financial issues can be solved by the mother staying home for at least the first 7 years of the child, instead of paying for a nursery.
Despite claiming to understand the economic necessity of a two-income household in this present day, he claims that it is better to sacrifice “financial success” for a “stable home.”

@miimee_ee I really don’t understand why you were named Solomon,you act the opposite way.
@cleo_patra24 I don’t even blame Buchi for his chochocho, it’s Arike I blame. Such an inspiring intelligent woman that chose to be yoked with a yapper mouth. So in other words, Arike should quit her job to cater to the child? Like someone said on Twitter, “I think S.B uses his tweets to tell his wife things he cannot say to her face” 🤌🏽🤌🏽
