So they should start starving their little baby because a grown a.ss woman like you cannot grow enough balls to say no to food. EWU |
Problem |
sixtus3606:Lol Yes, oga. I read your post right. Did I mention anything that was not part of your post? Where is your confusion coming from? |
If I were you, I wouldn't give him anything. You are dong enough by helping his wife and kids. Draw the line there. |
sixtus3606:At the bolded, but the husband is around. Your friend did not find fault with his brother, who refused to provide money to feed their mum, His main concern is what sister in law said. |
Wow! There are characters in this world oh! If anyone (talk less of my husband's mum) is willing to help me babysit, I will be ready to do all I can to ease their burden including picking them up. I cannot believe the level of ungratefulness you wife has displayed. If your wife has that attitude towards your mum in your presence, imagine how she treats her in your absence. |
madampresident:LOOOOL |
What of his father? Can you hand over your son to his dad? My brother was stubborn like that and my dad was more than capable of treating his fvk up. My mum just handed him over to my dad and up until university my dad was watching my brother like a hawk. |
Prettiepearlz:Don't mind her! Every advice and action plan has been met with opposition and excuses. It is obvious the poster has no intention of doing anything to change her situation and just opened this thread to vent and have a pity party. I'm just sad for the kids involved. |
I used to hold grudges against my parents for incidents of abuse. There were times they were merciless in their tongue lashing, and there was a specific incident when they flogged me real bad for something I didn't do and never apologize even when it they realized I was innocent. But I let those grudges go because as I grew older I also remembered the times when they showered me with unconditional love. I remember when they would sacrifice EVERYTHING, to make sure I am comfortable. I realized that in this world, even though my parents made mistakes, they are the only ones I know that love me so much that they will die in my place if they could. So I decided to forgive them and build my relationship with them. Luckily for me I didn't develop any anxiety from those bad memories. |
ebusfav:So the actual rapists set the innocent man/woman up? |
I absolutely agree with you OP I've have always wondered why the average Nigerian guys idea of a date is to go out and spend money on a girl. There are so many things you can do together that is at no cost to you and you will still achieve your aim of getting to know each other. This type of dates are the best kinds. One thing I noticed is missing from this article is the division of chores. If the man demands 50:50 financial contribution in the marriage is he willing to do half the chores in the home? How involved will he be in raising their kids? One reason some Nigerian men will not demand equality in their marriages is because it will require them to relinquish power. Men have been taught they are the head of the home and have authority over the woman. The man's ability to provide is almost always reciprocal to the authority he wields in the home. If both parties are contributing evenly, then I wonder if there is also equality in the 'headship' of the home. |
LOL I found your write up hilarious |
adontcare:What is wrong with some human beings for God's sake? |
Penisman:Who said it isn't? |
Red carpet from someone's sitting room + 10 people = 'welcome in style' Okay |
I do not see the problem with a man working in a crèche. If it makes you uncomfortable take your child to a different crèche. I do not support the idea of asking the school to remove the man from the crèche. He has done nothing wrong, his only offense is his gender. There is no reason to put the innocent man out of a job because of your narrow mindedness. |
Eghosa1:I have no desire to return at all. I can invest from here, living in Nigeria is a lot of unnecessary hard work. |
Eghosa1:Right now financial restraints does not give me the freedom to explore, but I am working towards building a non-lab career after my studies. It is getting more difficult for international students over here, I have an assistantship so I don't feel the burn right now, but many of my international student colleagues had a hard time finding their desired job after school. All in all, I'm still grateful for the opportunities molecular biology has afforded me |
Eghosa1:No, that is not what I mean. I feel I am striving in molecular biology. I like it but sometimes I feel I don't enjoy it enough for a career. I think I might enjoy a patient based/focused medical career better. |
Eghosa1:No, but I sometimes wish I did. I moved to the US and kept on studying molecular biology. I sometimes think about making the switch to an allied health career. |
Joel3:Do you normally wear gloves? |
Absolute lies!! Everybody and their dogs know that Southern Kaduna Christians are the ones being killed and not the other way around. Fulani people begged southern Kaduna chieftains to settle in their land. The indigenous people of southern Kaduna gave Fulani land to stay and rear their cattle, when they started acting like they are the owners of the land by driving their cattle into people's farms and killing farmers in the fields, southern Kaduna people asked them to leave and they refused. They had to be removed by force. You cannot come and start claiming what is not yours! There are no indigenous Fulani from southern Kaduna! You have no right to be killing people because they collected what was theirs in the first place. The Fulani must stop killing southern Kaduna people. They have set fires in entire towns and killed in hordes. |
Do you believe your father has money that could be used to pay you fee but he is deliberately refusing to do so because you are a girl? Why? The best kind of revenge is to become successful! You may have to forget the fact that you have parents and hustle for your fees. Find hand work to do. All the people who were doing side hustle in my school were never worried about finding job after graduation. They continued with their hustle and they are all doing very well. Good luck. |
Missebira and her prince charming deserve each other. She has done some questionable things going by this story. - tests the man by getting 2 girls to attempt to seduce him - depends on pastors, prophets and godly people to tell her who to marry. Pastor described her future husband to her, same way TB Joshua described the winner of the 2016 US presidential election. The person that is getting people to seduce a man is same one looking for divine profecy, aunty what kind of Christianity are you practicing? |
Ontarget:Is DNA the only thing in the cell? No Do all other things within the cell give it a blueprint to follow? No Is DNA/genes the only thing in the cells that gives the cells a blueprint? Yes. Why are you asking about the whole cell when you actually want to talk about genes? Your original question is flawed. If you want to talk about genes then talk about genes. |
Ontarget:The bolded should have been your original question. Your question was seeking why cells form a complex human. If you already know they are directed by genes then why did you ask? You should have asked where the said genes originated from. If the focus of your question was on genetic blueprint then why isn't there a single mention of it in your original post? All you talked about was cells and now you're claiming your focus was on genes. |
Ontarget:I am a Christian and I am a scientist. I hate it when Christians refuse to educate themselves about science. In simple terms, the formation of a child to become what he/she becomes during natural fertilization is first by chance (you cannot choose what sperm fertilizes the ovum). Then, the growth of the zygote to become a foetus/child is guided by his genes/DNA (half from mum and half from dad). Read up on the CRISPR/Cas system. If you knock out a particular gene (for instance the gene the codes for hair) from the zygote, that baby will not have hair. If you knock in a gene for blond hair, that baby will have blond hair. That is why the technology is seriously regulated to prevent the emergence of 'designer babies'. If you are trying to challenge evolutionist do yourself a favor and educate yourself. |
