LagosG: Mostly healthy. Infact, me and all of my five siblings belong to a WhatsApp group where we discuss and collaborate on family related issues. There is also a larger family WhatsApp group with my dad , all of his own five siblings (my three uncles and two aunties) and all of their children ( my siblings and cousins - plus our children who are old enough) We often banter and share stuff there and there is very little formality in the way we relate. My Grand-Father instilled some family values that are being passed down to generations. 8 Likes 1 Share |

EBEk101:I understand. Let me tell you something. You don't have to be a believer or belong to a religous faith to unleash this secret. Don't stop giving and see how flourishing you'd become. That little you have came to you for a reason , which I talked about earlier in my post. There's a widow I can't even recognise if I see her face to face among those that I give to. Because I know this secret, I never stopped being blessed. I don't want to say more than this. Even here on NL, I give without looking back. Pls don't stop. 2 Likes |

Pinkyposh: It's a she. She left pretty early to go hustle & she's doing well but she focused so much on the development of herself that she doesn't care of her siblings coming together. Even if someone is going to act foolish, it's definitely not her. She got her pride. 2 Likes |

Sijo01: Trust me, that woman is trying but the preference she has for some over other blinds her sometimes in order to be objective but truth be told, she tries. Even the days of peace when we're together are as a result of her peace keeping efforts but we're all adults & we have conflicting egos & pride. There's only so much she can do to keep the peace |

blackgold2018: We were definitely brought up in love. My mom being the sole breadwinner after dad died tried her best to make sure we never lack. Due to this, she never had much time for us. Hence the freedom & too much freedom sometimes can have repercussions. 2 Likes |

Mine is kinda mixed. We're just 2 sons and like 5 girls. Me and my bro don't really like each other. I believe to some extent he jealous of me. He feels life has been fairer to me than him. So he has been secretly envying me for a long time and a pont he can't hide it anymore. As for the girls. Na so so bickering and fighting amongst them. They don't even hide it. They just don't love themselves. Its well sha 6 Likes |

StraightGaay: Please think well before airing your thoughts. Is the death of someone you hate so much cause you true pain to want to change something negative to positive? Isn't it the death of someone loved & reverred that can trigger genuine reconciliation atleast for the sake of her memory? Think, man, think! 2 Likes |

cigaricon:Your mom should have tried to unite you and your half siblings before her death. It is said that half siblings who share the same mother are closer than those who share the same father. I wonder why you never met with your siblings. I believe you are old enough. You should make an effort to trace them even if it's obvious they don't care. Because if they actually care, they could have linked up with you before now. 1 Like |

Toxic polygamous, I am closer to my half brothers then my full brothers. Too much competition and comparism. Imagine my brother preferring to help his friend then his brother. It socks! Right now it is just me, my God, my family and my mum. Hope things gets better. 2 Likes |

Being in a polygamous family, we are 10 in number, so l have 9 Siblings. But sad enough l am the only child to my Mom. Relationship with the other Siblings, most are toxic - it's expected. Up here in the North Half-Siblins are mostly like Rivals. The rivalry seen amongst our Moms are technically transferred to the Siblings. I honestly suffer that, it's only when they are benefiting from me that l get the Healthy Siblings treatment. And l don't relent on that, l single Handley supported the education of at least 4 of them. The others are supported to the best as regards to Businesses they took up as for the girls l supported the during their marriages. Till date 3 of them are living with me. Despite all these, they never failed to show/treat me as we are not of the same Mother, which l feel very hurtful when they do that. My Mom is late so l become like an Island, l am only involved in matters when it involves monetary........ To me the fear of Siblings, cannot be over emphasized. I really find it hard and tough having Siblings, yet l cannot withdraw and keep to myself, to assume l don't have. Some Loved ones do advise me to disregard these Siblings and regard my children as my Siblings when the need arises. I am blessed with 6 children and 2 of them are blessed with 7 kids (Grandchildren). So technically l formed a family of mine to fill the gab of Siblings and any other relationships. Half-Siblins are TOXIC!! 3 Likes 1 Share |

Nwaikpe:Stop that. That's how you guys start war with useless religious sentiment. In Nigeria, the people of Jehova are so oppressed by the people of Allah that, after an Allah president and a Jehova vice president, you now have both President and Vice as Allah people. But you leave that to talk about far-away Israel and Palestine. Meanwhile, I'm a Christian Igbo FYI. |
