The woman has made the right decision. The probability of any new kid being AS is 50% and SS is 25%. The possibility of having another AA is 0%.

Eyaahh.... Ok he lied, agreed..But wife u already have a child nau, and d child baby boy is AA. U can still be married to ur hubby, forgive him

U can add one more child, with faith and prayer ur next child will not be SS

Maybe u don't love ur hubby anymore?


My dear, this is a serious issue. The trauma associated with raising an SS child is not what any parent would want to relive. It is just too much. The frequent trips to the hospital in the middle of the night, the sleepless nights, the agony of watching the child suffer for the sins of the parents, living in constant fear that all your love and care for the child could all be in vain, the anxiety, all the physical and emotional toll it takes on all involved, not forgetting the money that would be expended, trust me it is not 'beans'. No child should have to suffer for their parents' indiscretion. In the end, the happiness the parents seek by being together in union would have been annulled by the trauma of seeing their seed go in and out of crisis.

The couple got lucky with the first child, let them leave it at that. If they happen to get back together, they should consider adopting.

[b] I've been following your posts for sometime now.

You talk like someone who has been utterly & irrevocably brainwashed.

You type like a primary school dropout.

What has god got to do with as/as marriage?

Its plain simple that if they give birth to another issue, his/her genotype is bound to be either as/ss.

WTF is wrong with you people?

God would even punish people like you who advice others wrongly.
When you sit in the comfort of that your bacha & type rubbish in the name of giving "advice" & the repercussion comes out, would you be there to face it with the couple?

If you know nothing about something, why don't you do research on it or SHUT THE HELL UP?!??

Your type makes me wanna puke.

Get a life & stop doling out stupid & ignorant thrash in the name of giving out "advice" undecided

As for the Lady in question, she did the right thing.

If I find myself in her situation 1million times, I'd do the same thing 1million times [/b]

Having gone through some of the posts in this thread, I will say those arguing that the woman took the best decision are right in their own opinion.
But let's also take the seriousness of the marital vow into consideration. What the woman is doing now is what she should have done during courtship. Being afraid of having a SS child is not enough reason to end a marriage. Moreover she already has a child, who is AA.
My question, why not stop at that one and give him the best you can offer? What if that AA had been SS and the husband decided to end the marriage, how will she have taken it?
.
My point is this,
1) She is already married, and her fears is not enough reason to seek for a divorce.
2) Her son will now grow up without the love of at least one parent. cos his home is already broken.
3) She could have chosen to give her child the best, and equally give hubby a choice in raising his own kid.
.
4) Being SS is not a death sentence. And I will continue to advice against AS/AS couple getting married. But since they were already married, she should tried to make her marriage work............etc
hope ur brain is not ss,coz i ve heard some ppl bein aa n deir brain somefin else......is it d vows dat's d objective of any marriage? perhaps its better 4 a mormal kid 2 grow up in a foster home dan an ss havin all d care in d world or if u were 2 be a sicklecell patient u would ve winded up in d nearest clinic nw instead of comin out here 2 type gilberish.......d woman made a gr8t move n dats wot counts,every oda fin u say is 4 d gods....

Pls where in the story did they say the child is a boy?


Anyway, having an SS child is not a pleasant experience. The man shouldn't have lied on such a sensitive issue. As such I can't blame the lady for her decision. She knows what she wants.

I like to think that there is always a way out of every situation. Always. In this case, they could have simply adopted more children if they wanted to, but I would not support them conceiving another child.

Really, her excuses to some of us might not be excusable enough. However, the tendency of having an SS is quite high and I tell u, u don't want to go thruogh such ordeal of dealing with a sickler... Who might eventually die.

You've focused on the suffering of the parents and not even the child. The pain and suffering that child will suffer because their father consciously made that choice.

I feel sorry for the one that said pray that the next child does not end up being SS. You are everything that is wrong with this world.

My kid sis was once misdiagnosed to be SS and we spent quite a few years living in worry until sometime later when she was really sick and at the point of***

Another diagnosis from a better hospital revealed that we had been worrying god nothing all along.that was when we started looking for other sources of her illness and then discovered it was something else all along.
Because of the wrong diagnosis from where she was born,we assumed she had been suffering from sickle cell anemia all the while

Thank god she's all good now.

I'm saying your guy could have been misdiagnosed before now.

All these God-changed-genotype stories do sound quite far fetched.
no offense pls.

Be plain enough! You don't believe in GOD'S ability to do such a miracle! Give the glory to medical science and perhaps the devil since that sounds more logical to believe. Faithless generation of regular church guests!

this line you're towing is a two-way thing. You know?

I could also say you've been radicalized. undecided

We all know there's a God up there somewhere. (Even Science proves it)

But deciding to "try" God & wait for Him to perform a "miracle" in such a situation would even pull the couple farther away from the said God.

Easy bro. I get that you are pretty exasperated right now but she is entitled to her opinion. Everybody is. Quit with the insults, it is a petty way of handling a discourse like this. Some people here need to be informed and properly educated on these things and raining insults on them isn't gonna cut it. It would rather have the opposite effect.

First of all, I didn't know customary courts had the jurisdiction to dissolve a marriage. undecided

Assuming they did though, I believe that the grounds for dissolution were not proper at all. What if the guy actually believed he was AA?


The comments I've seen here justifying divorce really makes me wonder. Marriage isn't something that should be rushed in and out. Those vows actually mean a lot.

I believe the couple should have worked it out. They could either stop making any more babies, or even adopt one.

Besides, chances are that the second and third children might even both be AS.

You guys make it sound as if Sicklers aren't human beings.

CoColav, wats ur take on dis?

This is the funniest thing I've heard in a long time, Nigerian women and their shallow minds. For goodness sake you got one child that is AA, instead of divorce why not do family planning or adopt? Anyways, there's definitely more to this than meets the eyes. At this age in time, with the level of technological advancements I can't believe two AS individuals are still afraid to have children.

We know naija girls are this and that, but this isn't about that now. Let us leave that aside for once and not trivialize every topic by turning it into a women-bashing thread. Asides, the genotype issue, no one is looking at it from the trust angle. If your wife told you a monumental lie before marriage and you later found out, would you still trust her again? If you found out that she is actually like 10 years older than you or that she was sleeping with your pastor while you two courted, would you still trust her?

That said, I do not support outright divorce because of the child involved. The child needs both parents and one hallmark of being a good parent is being selfless for your kids albeit within reasonable limits and barring all unnecessary encumberances.
