Definition and Causes of Absentee Parenting in Ilorin


Absentee parenting refers to a family situation where one or both parents are frequently or consistently unavailable to fulfil their parental roles and responsibilities due to various factors. These absences may manifest as physical absence from the household, emotional unavailability, or neglect of essential caregiving duties, resulting in potential consequences for the child's development and well-being. Absentee parenting can be attributed to a range of factors, both contextual and individual, within the specific social and cultural context of Ilorin Metropolis.

Causes of Absentee Parenting
1.    Economic Migration: In search of better economic opportunities, some parents from Ilorin may migrate to other regions or countries, leaving their families behind. This economic migration can result in prolonged periods of parental absence.

2.    Work-Related Absence: Parents in Ilorin may be required to work long hours, engage in shift work, or hold multiple jobs to provide for their families. Such work-related demands can limit their presence in their children's lives.

3.    Divorce and Separation: Divorce or separation can lead to absentee parenting when one parent is granted custody, and the other has limited access to their children. Custody arrangements and disputes can affect parental involvement.

4.    Educational Pursuits: Parents may pursue educational opportunities, including higher education or specialized training that require them to relocate or spend extended periods away from their families.

5.    Employment Opportunities Abroad: Some parents in Ilorin may seek employment opportunities in foreign countries, leading to geographic separation from their families for an extended duration.
