kings59: Birthdays are for kids. A matured being doesn't need to celebrate birthday. The true date you were born can never come back again.
Once you have crossed 18 years, forget birthdays.
Before some religious people quote me, Jesus' birthday is celebrated, but the actual practice is remembrance date.
It would be good to say birth-date.
Leave the innocent man alone. There are many expenses to take care of of which birthday is less important.
Just forgive him and move on. I don't think she's talking about a party or something like that but just an acknowledgement. One of my birthdays, my husband woke me up around midnight and gave me a card and a rose flower. That alone made my day. |

nrexzy: A very simple solution to the problem is lock your room door... Everyone is covering up the man's fault with "lock your door". He is very wrong to enter his son's room without knocking. A wise father will know better. It's either he has no regard for his DIL or he lacks discretion and wisdom |

She does have a case. Yes it's his house. But as an elderly man who should be full of wisdom, he should know that his son is married and he needs to respect their privacy. It's common sense. |

AmTruth: If only some of them know the sacrifices some of our relations have made in contributing to whom they married, they would even prefer marrying them to us I guess nobody sacrificed or contributed in the wife's upbringing. No one made her who she is. Let everyone that contributed and sacrificed for them move into their house with them and learn to live in peace. |

Belafonte: You’re not even the wife and you’re ready to burst an artery. How is the OP treated his first daughter better than the 2 year old?
If this topic furthers your opinion on the selfishness of men, God help whoever marries you. But she has a point. If a woman had come here with a story about how she upgraded her daughter that she had before in one way or the other, leaving the kids from her present husband out, would the guy take it? Even if it is for supposed good intentions. And won't the guys on this forum be blaming and back lashing her for not letting her husband know? It's common in this forum. |
Family › Re: Is My Decision Right Or Wrong by ImaIma1(f): 9:46pm On Mar 11, 2020 |
RisenPhoenix: It takes 5 minutes if everybody is ready to agree with the decision taken. It takes weeks, months or forever if they must reach a consensus before acting. If everyone is already in agreement with thr other's decisions, then there is no need for consultation, especially in issues that concern only one party. In this case, do you think the op's wife would have agreed if he had taken her opinion first? So this whole issue of consulting is academic. He is the man. He has the right to run the household as he sees fit. If she does not trust his capability to do so, then she had no right to agree to marry him.
As for informing after taking the decision, I am absolutely ok with that, and I presume that the op informed his wife. It was still better than letting her find out by herself, because knowing women, she will probably have started wondering what else he is 'hiding' from her and letting her imagination run haywire. But objectively speaking, just look at the outcome in this case. Telling her; whether before or after taking the decision; would have made no difference here. She would still have felt jealous and taken it out on the girl. Your summation would have been valid if the OP had discussed with his wife first. Then we would have known if it would have taken weeks, months to reach a consensus. But he didn't. Besides, it's about putting her in the know |

Vyolet: Stop running and own up to the boss, look for a plan to pay back his money. You stole his money, stop justifying it with what you did with the money. I don't even understand why you will marry on a private school salary. You had nine whole to plan, all you could come up with is stealing your boss's money. When those posts about getting married with 40k salary,.etc come up, you try to advise the men that it's not a good idea. They will calculate it for you...food stuff 5k, transport 4k, rent 15k...use baby napkin instead of diapers, buy ogi instead of cereal, blah blah blah. When they now face this kind of situation, they will say it's their village people following them. |
Family › Re: Is My Decision Right Or Wrong by ImaIma1(f): 10:37am On Mar 11, 2020 |
RisenPhoenix: @bolded. Explain this to the op's wife. She's the one who is trying to force and blackmail the op to put their son in the same school with his daughter and needlessly spend the extra money, or else...
Being on the same page does not necessarily translate into undergoing a lengthy bureaucratic procedure before decision making; especially when women think with their emotions. I am a better decision maker than my wife; hell, I make a living out of decision making. If I require her input in a decision that directly affects her I would always ask. However, this is hinged on the fact that she gives sensible reasons for her responses and advice; other than petty jealousy and other unproductive emotion. Once I suspect that the above two are her main decision making criteria, I will stop seeking her input. This kind of decision making is something that probably take a 5 min talk, not the office bureaucratic procedure. This decision affects her except he's telling her that his daughter is not her business but his alone even though she's also involved in the process of caring for her. Even though my husband tends to make good decisions that benefits us all, he never hesitates to put me in the know first. That is working as a team and valuing me as his partner. There are also things I want to do even outside our household...I tell him first even if it not something that concerns him. It's not rocket science, it's having consideration for each other and not taking each other for granted. And it cuts down unnecessary conflicts that may arise so that we can deal with the real issues of life. |
Family › Re: Is My Decision Right Or Wrong by ImaIma1(f): 9:02am On Mar 11, 2020 |
RisenPhoenix: Don't mind all these nay sayers. They are only thinking from a woman's perspective; illogically and competitively. Your decision is acceptable. It is not everything your wife says that you should rush to do. Nor do you have to consult her for every decision you plan to take to spend your own money.
The academic needs of a 9 year old about to enter secondary school are not the same as those of a 2 year old singing A B C. There is no point paying an extra N50K per term just to learn how to sing alphabet song and watch cartoons on tv. If your wife cannot understand that, and if she consequently starts victimizing your daughter, warn her off seriously. Let her know that if it comes to a choice, a wife is replaceable while your flesh-and-blood daughter can never be. Leave the younger one where he is until he NEEDS the new academic arrangement, not because your wife illogically feels the need to compete with a 9 year old girl, otherwise, your whole life will be forever ruled by a vindictive woman using the threat of victimization of a small girl to blackmail you. If you are married, please never solve your issues with force, blackmail or showing that one is more important than the other. It takes a diplomatic man and a man with wisdom to know how to tackle some issues. If you know what a wife means, you will realize that she should be part of the decisions you make, not necessarily asking her permission but acknowledging her as one with you. You cannot stand at the alter and proclaim that you are one with her and then go back home and show otherwise. Marriages that work mean both parties are on the same page, they have an understanding. Not someone trying to prove a point. |

Mrperfecto: Well in that case I know what to do. My daughter comes first she will stay and I will send my wife back to her parents This here, is why women avoid single dads. You will send her back to her parents... You obviously do not value your wife enough to discuss matters with her before going ahead with a decision. You already have the option of sending your wife away waiting. Your daughter comes first. Why did you bother to get married to another woman and exclude her from things concerning your daughter. Honestly, it's not what you did that matters most but the fact that you are creating problems in your home yourself . But instead of taking responsibility for being tactless, you are still trying to put the blame on your wife. |

So you slept with her without protection not thinking about the possibility of a pregnancy.
You don't want to marry her. So she's going to have the baby on her own.
Then on top of that, you want to take her to court to claim the baby.
Ok |

GboyegaD: Decide what you want but remember if he has an ex and they are still sexually entangled, then take a cue of the kind of relationship you seek from his person and his thoughts about relationships.
But who tries to force himself on a lady particularly, one that he isn't committed to and vice versa? She ignored the red flags from day 1. Imagine someone that's still having sex with his ex that is in another relationship. And someone that cannot control himself...touching, trying to kiss, tickle on the first outing. |

Health › Re: Court Stops Lagos Public Hospitals From Demanding Blood Donations For Childbirth by ImaIma1(f): 11:08am On Mar 05, 2020 |
delpee: The problem is that there's shortage of blood in the blood bank. People in dire situations need to be given blood urgently but our society us not enlightened enough to understand that blood donation is healthy and a form of social responsibility/civic duty.
There must always be blood at hand for pregnant women who are due for delivery and surgical cases. Sometimes it's a life and death issue. I hope this will not lead to maternal deaths. Regardless, it should not be forced on people. It should be voluntary. I have donated blood voluntarily before. They shouldn't deprive a pregnant woman from registering for antenatal because she doesn't have anyone to donate blood. Very wrong |
