Nigerian skit maker, Adebowale Adedayo popularly known as Mr. Macaroni has reacted to the video of kids recreating his popular ‘Daddy Wa’ skits.
The young content creators wore adult-like attire in the video, portraying Mr. Macaroni’s ‘sugar daddy’ character, along with the roles of a potential lover and his wife.
Reacting to the video in a post on X, formerly Twitter on Tuesday, he advised parents and guardians alike to be mindful of how they allow their children to showcase their talents.
“Dear parents and guardians, I understand the urge to want to make the most out of our uniquely talented children. I however strongly believe that we must apply caution while doing so.
“We must showcase their talents in ways appropriate for their respective ages. We must put our children first and groom them right. That way, we are able to develop the durability and longevity of their talent as opposed to a short viral moment. We owe them and our society that guidance. My love always. 🤍,” he wrote.
The thespian acknowledged that it is important for parents to recognise the talents of their kids at an early stage, however, he noted that it must be accomplished within their age bracket.
“Children are uniquely gifted. While I believe in catching them young, I also understand that we must groom and direct them to create at a pace suitable for their respective ages,” the activist said.
He further explained that they can be given the liberty to explore as they add more age to their years.
“As they grow, they can be allowed more creative freedom. One step at a time 🤍.”
