 A Ki Mọ Ọkọ Ọmọ, Ki A Tún Mọ Àlè Rẹ  One Does Not Acknowledge Ones Child Husband And Also Acknowledge Her Illicit Affair : In time past, ladies are given out in marriage, but in modern times, ladies bring home their fiancée to introduce to their parents, because Yoruba permits girl child to attend school or learn a trade and engage in trading.  This permits girls to leave home.  When a girl child is old enough for marriage, up to eighteen years, parents would begin to remind her of the need to bring home a suitor.It is impertinent to introduce a male friend without any serious commitment to parents.  If a girl that is old enough to marry, brings home a fiancée to introduce to her parents, the Yoruba proverb that said One does not acknowledge ones child husband and also acknowledge her illicit affair is used to advice against bringing any other suitor.  This proverb, is used also, as part of instruction to the bride during traditional marriage against illicit loversaffairs.
