My dad married to my mum 23 yrs ago and he is blessed with 3 children including me.when we were little my mums sister JOY used to come and help out my mum take care of us too,unfortunately to my mum and us generally she died and after her dead,my mums sister JOY happens that she comes to cook for us and then go back since she is that very close to us.but after some months,I saw the likes on my fathers face for my mums sister JOY and surprisingly to me precisely when he(my dad) introduced her to me as his next wife due to my mums demised in the sense that she will be of help to us and as I'm talking to you now,my dad has gone to make an official invitation card to marry my mums sister..this is totally reasonable and unreasonable to me and I'm thinking of encumbering the marriage because my conscience wudnt help at all due to the fact that this woman is my mums sister.I don't undastand the kind family my mums from,why the parent dnt stop such movement of the mind..I'm confused right now if this move my dad is taking is right with my mums sister..

Have you talked to you dad about it. I guess its okay if you all love her and she in turn cares for you all as she had been doing before your mum's demise (bless her soul).
I don't think there is any constitutional or legal roadblock to the marriage except maybe traditional or family.







other superstitious Nigerians would say that maybe she had a hand in your mum's demise so as to have your dad.. please ignore those ones and keep an open mind. okay

Hmmmmm!

It's hard to say. Things of the heart is sometimes very dangerous to interfere in.

First of all, am sorry about your mum's death and may her soul RIP.
I'll suggest you allow your dad marry her instead of marrying a total stranger who'll come in and start maltreating you and your siblings once she starts having her own kids, besides, you said she's been taking care of you lot even when your mum was still alive.

Op, which area are you from in the country? Some culture still supports that anyway. Although, Personally to me, it is very wrong. My opinion.

I know of women marrying their deceased husband's brother. I have seen a Muslim marry his late wife's younger sister their reason is that she'll take care of the kids. This is the second time I'm hearing this.


Are you and your siblings that young, for him to be taking another wife? I wonder why aunty joy accepted the proposal.

I really don't think there is something u can do about it. I don't think its right(my opinion though)
My advice for u is to safe ur head, that's ur dad's choice accept her, but be watchful.

We'll be shying away from the truth if we say some part of our heart is not saying she has a hand in ur mum's death, either true or false, just be watchful and prayerful

I'd rather my aunt who loves us become our step mom than a new strange woman. That's speaking from the point of view of a kid about to get a new step mom.

The hard part is wondering if there was something going on between them before your mom died. Hopefully there wasn't.

All things being equal and minus foul play, she's actually in the best position to take care of her sister's children than anyone else.

But speaking from a woman's point of view, anybody's ex (friend and sister or neighbor) is off the limits for me. I won't agree to marry such a man.
