Nigerian Parents by warripikin17(m): 4:43pm On Mar 05, 2020 |
Parents, I don't get them, they'll always justify their own actions, but whenever their kids do the same thing or go through the same experience, it's completely different. My dad slept off in a bus coming to Ibadan from Lagos and alighted without it. My mom dropped her phone in a car and came out without it. They both lost their phones, they called the driver a thief,same for the other passengers. Now my phone's gone, I've heard hell, hell, hell, nothing but hell, not even sorry. It's all on me, as always, I've got no justification whatsoever. "Tega, you don't have street sense" "...and you haven't resumed 100L,in that UI, they'll steal you in two weeks " I'm just so grateful that I bought the phone with my own money,still it's not as painful to me as it seems to them. But what actually pains them, the fact that my phone is gone or that their first born son is a complete idiot?, Parents claim to know their children, teenagers especially, well lemme break it down for you, YOU DON'T KNOW SHIT !!!! Parents will hardly ever see depression or sadness in their teenagers, but will easily detect an "unwanted " pregnancy without the aid of a pregnancy test. To Nigerian parents A pained teenager. This post contains information from the things I have seen in the Nigerian parents I've interacted with and know. I don't intend to generalize 5 Likes |

This is more than two years later, I'm an adult now, approaching my 20th birthday LOL and I just saw this, sigh, I won't lie or get corny and start saying I now understand where they were coming from, because honestly, I still don't, we seem to have grown farther apart and I don't see our relationship getting any better |

warripikin17: It's always like that when they don't make efforts to make the relationship work. Don't blame yourself. |
