@MrMekzy_ When you treat your kids and wife well, in old age they will surround you and treat you well too. I see this in the hospital everyday.
There's no benefit to being a deadbeat.
If you can afford it,
You should have a room in your house dedicated solely to school work for your children.
They can do their assignments there- not on the living room chair or on the dining table with amala around. You can also teach them there too.
