Hubby is an expat. He does it only on barbecue. Medium cooked.

No much ingredients, just black pepper and salt. Not good when it's spicy .
Here is a pic of the one he made on a fete.
It's duck !

For your steak, make sure it's not well cooked, if not the meat becomes hard to chew.

Meat half cooked is softer and easier to eat. And good juice from the blood kiss cool

Only eat medium cooked steak where the food is controlled. No try am for Nigeria o.

Or maybe she was raised to believe in total female sexual conservatism to the point that exhibiting interest in wanting a man sexually means she's loose and as such she must be the one to be chased and conquered.

If she grew up with that mindset as did many women, expecting to overcome her inhibitions and start unashamedly showing the wanton part of her (which in all honesty may have become totally suppressed) is unrealistic.

You don't learn to be left handed in old age.

You just gotta keep asking if you apply sophyrock's advice and it doesn't work.

This @OP
Sophyrocks:
Keep on asking and it shall be given unto you.

Seriously, make sure you discuss this with her. Assure her that you wont look at her differently if she starts to demand for it. That you do like it or perhaps it turns you on when she does. You have to switch on the romantic side of you in order to switch on the romantic side of her. Make sure she is not stressed up because stress can switch off the buttons in a woman. Also childbirth reduces libido in some women so she may fall into this category. If she is overwhelmed with too much chores in the home especially chores of caring for the kids, better start being supportive and lessen the burden for her. When she is not stressed, its easy to set the mood for s.ex.

How is this different from what others are saying? You're calling them holier than thou . So after insulting then you still went ahead to repeat same thing they've been telling OP from the beginning of the thread.
So what exactly was your disagreement about to start with?
Or you just had to disagree for disagreement's sake even when you share the same opinion as others? undecided

Is he a god that they are meant to be worshiping?

Let's even assume he wanted to say they aren't meant to be just pounding yam but surely he could have put his damn point across in a clear and concise manner

I wonder how he communicates with his wife
Not just about this anyway. I love that his govt gives women due respect although I agree he shouldn't have made a personal reference to himself in this instance. But his meaning is clear all the same.

He might be innocent. But it is really unfortunate for him because he would have to prove that. Wrong place wrong time. The woman could have also died in her own house of she didn't spend the night with him

Good morning, my good people.

As I type, I'm still in the office; just concluded my night duty.
Around 1157pm, late last night, I received an urgent and somehow troubling call from my wife.
meaning she got scared and probably over reacted. For her to call you in that sort of urgency, she probably displayed more in the presence of that 11yr old. She may have even question the girl harshly.
I'm not reaching. I know what it means to pick up the phone and call someone who's working night duty in a sense of urgency. Your wife probably freaked out on that poor child.

He said, she was awakened to consciousness by the loud shout from our son; our first child. Frantically, she rushed down to their room, and grabbed him, and pampered him. She said his bladder was full, and wanted to use the toilet.

But the shocking thing was that, she didn't meet our house help, an 11-year old in their room. She became troubled and headed straight to the sitting room, where she found her standing alone in the dark sitting room. He looked shocked and confused as my wife quietly sneaked into the parlour and put on the light.
This singular event has created some confusion in the house.

What was she doing alone in the dark? At that odd hour?

She told my wife she had gone to use the toilet. But why would she stand in the dark, all alone, and unconcerned with the scream from our son?
for some reason this comment reads as though you guys suspect your baby crying to the girl standing in the sitting room alone in the dark. It also means(literally) that since she wasn't attending to your crying baby at the moment she must be aware of why the baby was crying and worst of all showed no empathy.
Your baby was crying from the pain of a full bladder maybe: did she think of that?

Why was you wife sneaking around the house? Her own house? Did she suspect armed robbers to have broken in? That's the only reason I think why one will sneak around their own house unless of course she's suspecting foul play. And she did suspect foul play. It clouded her judgment in a way that she didn't realize sneaking around soundlessly and then bearing on the child suddenly and turning on the lights would shock the little girl especially if she was still in a state of sleep. It was the same paranoia that led her to start calling you frantically and whipping up your own fears. I'm a woman. I don't have a child but I know women tend to be over protective of their babies. Nothing wrong with that as long as the child of the next person around you doesn't suffer for it.

She was employed to assist us in the home.
And this here is the crux of the matter. You needed assistance and you sought it in an 11yr old. She's not there primarily because you saw her in need and took her in to assist her. You took her in to assist you. Simple as ABC
And it is wrong as feck. Don't try to sugar coat it.
She's in your employ. And her school fee is payment for assisting you in the house.

Brethren, I'm a little bothered. A little troubled. My kids are very important to us, and their safety must be ensured at all times.

What should I do when I get him? Am I being fearful? What should I do?

Please, your inputs are welcome.

Thanks, and Shalom.
Yea your kids are important to you as they should be. I hope you realize this one is important to her parents too.(or maybe she's not. I blame them for lending a small child like her out)

If you think your househelp poses some sort of danger to your kids as you've stated here in your 'their safety must be ensured at all times' line, then send her back to her parents. If you think there is some form of danger in having her around,doesn't that negate the 'patience is my daughter too' line that you just remembered now to save face?

What should you do to her? Send her to mountain on fire for deliverance. There I've said what you wanted to hear when you created this thread .

I hope you don't see yourself as a victim because of the harsh criticism on this thread. And pls help dissuade your wife of her mindset that is causing all this wahala at the moment.

God bless you.

Answer pickabeau' question first jare.

That one will clear matters up a bit.
dein77:
For all intents and purposes, I'm grateful for all your comments concerning this matter. This matter is considered dead in my mind. I didn't even raise it when I got home this morning. Following popular comments, I want to believe she was sleepwalking, and whatever that happened was just a mere coincidence. Nothing more.

However, I also have learned some lessons from this thread today. Brutal lessons. One is that, especially on a faceless forum as this, most people form opinions about us solely on our WORDS. Once we type them, they are gone out, and no amount of modifications can alter the initial opinions held my audience.

Another is the fact that most people enjoy selfish criticism than asking for more details from a poster so as to make informed decisions. That's life. Despite all the efforts I made to clarify my position, most people still continued the bashing.....probably it concealed their own esteem issues...people are deeply complex. Aisha2 mouth na fire......

Kudos to those who, while making their observations, we're still able to see my point of view. Thanks for all the objective ones. Una do well.

Also, I learned even ladies do BULLY guys. I was literally bullied, insulted and disrespected today mostly my ladies. ..well, they are a more detailed folks. .Una get mouth ehhh! !

Lastly, I discovered nothing can be more painful and frustrating than having one's words totally MISCONSTRUED, and then a wrong conclusion drawn. I promise to be more empathic with others in my life henceforth.

Real matter: With every fibre in me, I hate and condemn CHILD LABOUR. It's a breach of child rights. But our ward's case ( using the more dignify in word) isn't child labour. She's doesn't receive any PAY, neither do our parents. She attends one of the best schools in my area in PH; eats exactly what we all eat; goes to bed we all do; enjoys all the rights and privileges our kids do enjoy. We intend she grows up with us, and finish our University education from our home. Patience is a daughter to us. Her mum comes visiting almost every month. .....

I think a ward attending a school worth 45K every term is pretty well treated.

So, I really mean well for her. I watch and read news about Child labour. And I give my soprano voice against it.....

With these few lines of mine, I should be able to convince the nobles and open-minded that our daughter ISNT a househelp in the sense we all think.

Shalom, and God bless you all.......Kudos to my RCCG folks. Don't give up the fast; get the lamp burning; let love reign.

You didn't do the wrong thing. Let her grow and bond with her family. At least she will understand better where she's coming from and appreciate your assistance all the more.

Her reactions are expected. She's just a child anyway and feels a little bit entitled. She will grow out of it and get more appreciative.

Just don't stop assisting

@OP if she must continue living with you guys,desist from giving her duties of a house maid. That's when it is believable that she's your ward.
Don't put her up with the responsibility of checking up on your sleeping baby at night or being a nanny for when you guys are not around.
If you're sincere about helping her,you will treat her like you would treat your own 11yr old kid and only send her on errands befitting her age.

As for being afraid of that simple incident, Shows how you guys' minds work. You're suspicious and superstitious. And that's not healthy. All it takes is for one pastor from somewhere to tell you that he saw a vision for your family and the little girl will be branded a witch for life.

Wow. I really expected more.

So at this age of our country our politicians are still doing road and water politics. Things that should be taken for granted as something that must be done like one must eat and breathe .

How can someone who can't even remember the name of his running mate expect us to believe he's paying attention to the important things in the masses lives. When he doesn't even know the correct name of his running mate.
Seriously?

Don't even get me started on the aboki accent
'Fifu' in place of people angry WTH?

Hmmm.

So there is no other candidate apart from GEJ and this guy?
I would glady vote a 25 yr old youth male or female in place of either of them.

It is actually too much.

Going at that rate you guys may not have anything to go home to when you retire.

Parents are important so he shouldn't stop taking care of his parents but every other person's needs should be divided among the comfortable siblings and let them know and learn how to help out too.

Do you guys even have savings? I like generous people but I dislike entitled people who think other people owe them just because they are related

Why will your BIL have 12kids? shocked shocked
Because his father had 21?
Now your husband is training one of his kids,next thing the second one will gain admission and they will call your husband again.

it is too much Na. Let the poor guy not breakdown.
Miami11:
I wish my husband's family were appreciative of his help, in a family of 21 kids two wives he is the fifteenth kid not the eldest. He has brought two siblings to US. His older brother has 12 kids with no job and my husband took over the education of one of his kids his wife refused family planning so am afraid he will pick the responsibility for this family. I don't mind helping but some is too much for our family.
when his mother visited as he complained about another older brother that is a teacher pursuing bachelors degree that he needed help.ain't this too much burden on as.
