What Coming From A Single Parent Home Has Taught You by Nobody: 7:52pm On Mar 30, 2015 |
This post is for those raised in a single parent home.in other words raised by either their father or mother alone. This could be as a result of parents being divorced, widowed or unmarried. My own parents r divorced nd I was raised by my mother and below is a list of what coming from a single parent home has taught me _ to be independent _ to not be too crazy in loving _to learn how to think like an adult at an early age _ to not feel too pained by insults and stereotypes from pple around _to plan a better marriage. Feel free to share urs, nairalanders. 7 Likes |

My parents are divorced too (separated since before I was born) and I think it had made me more independent. I don't rely on men or consider females the weaker gender. 7 Likes |

pickabeau1:I should be asking you if you are frustrated? And did I just read stalking? some people will have the body of rokozuna and have the brain of a 3year old cat Oniranu. The bottom line is stop picking on posts unnecessarily especially where there's no reason to. Old fool 3 Likes 1 Share |

pickabeau1:U may have noticed I didn't use the word 'broken' , I said single parent home/ divorced home. That's one of the stereotypes pple lash out without knowing, not all single homes are necessarily broken'. If I think in dat line, well u can't really blame me cos its what I've learnt overtime. Hmm as to those that don't want to marry pple from single parent homes, well dats up to them. My question for u, what exacvtly do u find bad about such line of thinking? 1 Like |

TheRealStuff:Can u pls expantiate on this part? Cos my friend here pickabeau1 has some issues with that. I also don't get ur use of head. |

qbd2: A single parent home is a function of many things agreed however broken has roots in the manner of the particular genesis I like your open questioning nature and will answer you what i felt about ur thinking Marriage by definition means that one has to submit his will or desires to that of the other. The man makes decisions for the betterment of the family ditto the mother There should be no 'I' or me in it You sink or swim together That's why the choice of a partner is really one of the most important decisions one can make A woman more so must take care as she has to submit to the headship of her husband So love but not love sounds weird to .me But heck..its your opinion 2 Likes |
Re: What Coming From A Single Parent Home Has Taught You by TheRealStuff: 7:34pm On Apr 10, 2015 |
I probably should have used brain or something in place of head. Not letting my "feelings" (for lack of a better word) overcloud my sense of reasoning or better put, not taking my heart on a journey without my brain. Better now? |
Re: What Coming From A Single Parent Home Has Taught You by Nobody: 7:43pm On Apr 10, 2015 |
pickabeau1:I dint say love but not love oh. Bsds my idea of indepence sure takes into account the fact datd husband is d head. Its just something like for example, aving my own job, savings e.t.c. |
Re: What Coming From A Single Parent Home Has Taught You by pickabeau1: 7:50pm On Apr 10, 2015 |
qbd2: Then u need to explain your own concept of independence Of course having a job and a measure of financial independence is good n a given in modern days So what do u mean by love but not crazy love What do u mean by independence in a marriage |

pickabeau1:they never give a general perspective about this independence thing. Each to her own. being "independent" kills the idea of a "family" I think they need to come up wIth another term. Nice questions 1 Like 1 Share |
