I'm now wondering whether it's even likely that a nunh would hold his position long enough to be a mentor and trainer for even a subset of the children he sired (while still holding his position). Assuming Seeker children begin combat training the intensity of which would require the instruction of the nunh at age 10 (and that's stretching it a bit IMO) that means that the nunh would have had to held his position as one of the strongest members of the tribe for at least a decade.
This leads me to speculate on two possibilities (which aren't mutually exclusive): because of the time it takes for children to mature, and the (presumably, IMO) high turnover rate of a position where almost every other male you know is gunning for your job, nunh don't typically train their own children but rather wind up training the children of the nunh they replaced. Alternatively, when a nunh is replaced that would free up a whole lot of time for what used to be (and possibly still is) one of the tribe's strongest warriors who would then be free to begin assisting in a greater capacity the training of the generation he helped sire.
With all that said, it is my personal belief that the majority of the child-rearing (including the training and guidance of young adults) in Seeker tribes is handled by women and tia.
