What traditions have you not kept that your parents had?
The only answer I have to this question is that I try as much as possible to uphold my family traditions and morals embedded in me.
Every family has what they believe in and what works for them, so parents tend to inculcate in their children the best values and morals which will later aid them in life and also to be remembered for their work well done.
So it’s left for the children to keep to these values not only for their sake but for the sake of their parents so that society will see and agree that their parents did their work well.
When you hear such word like ‘nwa azuru azu’ it means a well-trained child. Everyone will be happy to see such a child and also bless the parents for raising such a good child.
So back to the question, I think the only difference now is beliefs. There are still some old traditions that my parents hold dear to heart that I no longer think are necessary, but are a make-believe just to feel comfortable and have something to fall back to.
