How Can I Stop My Brother From Marrying This Woman by ggood: 7:26pm On Jun 08, 2013
From a female LIB reader.

My fellow readers of this great blog please I need your help urgently. My younger brother wants to marry a woman who has two kids by two different men. She's only 29 and already has a 9 year old and a four year old, both from different men she dated in the past. My brother is only 31 and I and other members of our family feel there are more decent women out there he can marry and not a young woman with two kids. We have tried to talk him out of it but he doesn't want it to hear it. It's not even like she's beautiful, well educated or rich so I don't understand his obsession with this woman. How is he going to take care of two kids that are not his? What do we do? How do we get him to get away from this woman? There are some family members who believe he's under a spell because his obsession with her and determination to marry her is not normal.

So, decency is calculated based on how many children you have? Do you know how many people the ladies without children have killed? You don't judge decency because someone probably made a mistake sometime in their life.

It's not for you or any member of your family to determine who your brother should marry. He has a good reason for wanting to marry the lady.

Have you ever taught of praying for your brother and his decision to marry? And again you didn't tell us if the kids are living with the lady. Please don't judge her by her past. There are many ladies out there who has been involve with loys of men and has done several abortions. Just pray for your brother and don't intrude. Nobody knows tomoRrow. God bless you

if she's 29 and she has a 9 year-old then her attitude as an adolescent should be looked into. it means she got preggers at 20. it's not rocket science - at 20, most females were completing their first degrees and miss thing here was procreating - she's not responsible!

arrant nonsense!
if problem occurs later, who would this guy run back to? his family or a faceless afam4eva? if i can't advise my sibling on a sensitive issue like his marriage then i would rather not have him as a brother - he's better off dead to me.

at 29, 2 kids for 2 different men?
if she's a good wife material, why did the fathers of her children refuse to marry her? i would personally beat up my brother or wait till their wedding day and send hired thugs to beat up bride and groom to stupor.

Does it make a difference that she's pregnant. What if her sexcapades with men didn't come with the baggage of having kids. Would he have been responsible then? So, she's irresponsible because she became pregnant and not because she slept with men.

Shouldn't NOT HAVING SEX = RESPONSIBLE

So, what if the CD breaks and she gets pregnant? That changes everything? I never knew that a day will come when preventing sperm from going into you will be termed responsible.

Maybe our parents should have also connected a pipe to suck out all our sperm so that we don't impregnate someone and make them irresponsible.

that's why condoms are cheap!
in my neighbourhood, there are walk-in centres where teens can go and get boxes of condoms. one has to be very stûpid to think teens with raging hormones would not have sëx - there's an air of inevitability about it.

so this woman must have been very very irresponsible to make a mistake once and then twice. even if the condom
leaked, there are morning after pills that stop the process. let's call a spade a spade abeg and stop making excuses.

You're not making much sense. If you had said it's irresponsible to sleep with someone you're not married to, it would have made some sense. But here you're telling me that you can sleep with as many men as possible like an ashewo but don't get pregnant. WTH is that?

having a child outside wedlock is not irresponsible - having one at 20 without a father to claim it is irresponsibility!!!

I have read a lot of the post but this is my take. If I were the poster I will equally be very worried. I am not saying the wife to be is worse than some girl who never got pregnant, all I am saying is that she has made some very wrong decisions in the past and I may not trust her to make the right decisions going forward. Having two children for two different men you never married shows she is kind of loose. I am not comparing her to anyone, I am just comparing her to the kind of wife I would want for my brother. I would rather have a 29 yr old that has never been pregnant before. I am not saying that the one that has never been pregnant is an angel, all I am just saying is that the one that has never been pregnant should be given the benefit of the doubt.

Marrying someone with children always has its own issues. Now the brother has to deal with two different men, because like it or not, those two men will always be part of the wife's life. She may go to them every now and then to get school fees, the child will have birthdays where both parents want to be there, and of course at the wedding ceremony of the kids. And there are chances she could get back with one of them.

Poster there is little you can do than to talk to him, pray for him and wish him the very best. The wife to be may have genuinely changed but I agree this is not the ideal situation we all pray for.
