He expressed that if he were the interviewer, he would have stopped the child participate. He spoke out k the importance of upholding morals and ethics in such situations, Dotun acknowledged Susan’s right to express herself but urged her to share the situation without involving her son.

“You can fi ht but never involve the kids. if I were the interviewer, I won’t let the child on. I think in all we do, we need to apply a little more pressure when it comes to our ethics. I get it but l’ll rather she says it herself not through the child
When you involve kids as a won to fie ht your partner, you
don’t love them. You will think anyone will grow up and be a better father or Mother doing that? no! You just scarred him by letting him do that interview. Fi ht dirty if you care to but don’t ever use the kids.
