Why Do Some Women Find Difficulty In Taking Care Of Other Kids As Theirs? by NaijaOptimist: 9:37am On Mar 08, 2015
The case of househelp maltreating children is a known issue, but one may argue that most of these house help are not matured enough or have not gone through the pain of pregnancy or childbirth.

Such is not the story of some mothers, who maltreat other women children kept in their custody.
Some of these mothers are even blood relation of these children, while some are either friends or neighbours.

One can easily diffrentiate her children from others kept in her custody through preferential treatment.

Women, why is it difficult to treat kids in our custody just as we treat our own kids?

Every woman is an evil witch until proven otherwise. Even after proven, she should still do refresher training periodically otherwise the witchcraft will resurface and take over.

listen old man! just because u were a victim of a woman(step mom or any woman) maltreatment doesn't give u the right to label every woman as a witch! my God, what are u thinking?! undecided
do u have a mother or a sister? jeez.

A friend once told me that she couldn't bear handling all the kids that were being put in her care by her relatives. . .in her defense however, they were a little too much in number but there was this one comment she made one time that really carried a lot of weight - she said she couldn't imagine cleaning up and changing the dirty diapers of a child/children she didn't birth, that these things disgust her.

Maybe there are a lot of women around who share her sentiments if they're not emotionally invested in a child that isn't theirs. . .just maybe

Well, depending on their age, kids can be a handful. And some people just generally don't like kids. But if it is a woman that likes kids, even if they are for the other wife, she would still take care of the kid like it was hers'. I remember going to stay with a distant relative while I was in my teens. I had lived in that house for about a month before I knew two out of the kids were not the children of my uncle's wife; one was the kid of the second wife (who didn't live in the same house with us), and the other was the kid of my uncle's friend. I lived there for four weeks, and I never noticed any difference in the way the woman (my uncle's wife) treated any of the children.

Because taking care other kids is harder than raising your biological kids. There are so many factors involved!

Differential treatment....unavoidable and it's similar that applies to how everyone both male and female treat anything that's not theirs especially when no one's watching.

It's simple.Emotions are usually not as invested as it'd be with your own child.
