My dear, jst check if it has d Vitamin A Eye Logo written on d pack, if not, i fear u've got d fake one o
So . .are you saying the fakers cant add the "Vitamin A Eye Logo" to the pack . . easily?


If they can make the sugar and the pack, i'm willing to bet they can write anything in it wink

My point is - once they realise they left something out, they will fix their mistake and give you what you want - "Vitamin A Eye Logo" grin

They are self-centered. period.

Their kids are personal investments as far as they're concerned.
FamilyRe: The Nuclear Family by kokoye(op): 3:33pm On Mar 02, 2012
^^^

As a man, here's what I think.

A responsible man wants to make sure his family does not lack.

How does he do that?  by going out to get this money.

depending on how much he's able to get, he may be able to spend more time with his kids  . . or not.

But that does not mean he does not love them the same way the mother does.

Women, or the other side are more emotional . . I think.

Having said that, I kinda spend more time with my son that his mom. I like to stay at home while she does the grocery shopping and all that. Adn thank God I have a job that allows me to spend that much time at home.

But I'm in no way taking away from my wife . .because I cant. She is the rock of my household. And she's my mother too.

Hope this makes sense.

Any good mother with the daughter's interest in mind would want the best for her, and if it is carrying her away from any abusive relationship, then so be it. Reallyhuh are we going to just hear from the poster alone and conclude that the MIL is badhuh i personally don't think so, there are so many NLanders that are abusive and would come here and feign good husbands (or wives and mothers), i still believe that something must have happened for his wife to pack-up and follow the mother.
We can only analyse on the information the poster has provided, unfortunately.

If the wife or MIL came online and gave their side of the story, I would be analyzing form that part as well.

Very true, many people still struggle with ego and pride and they tend to focus their energy on vanity.
I remember a neighbour who gave me and my sister a ride years back . .we both had to sit in the single passenger seat beside him.

HE did not want either of us to sit in the 'owner's corner' funny

We all really just need a re-orientation.

Some people believe seatbelts are for posing and looking cool

FamilyRe: Mother In-law Snatched My New Born Baby by kokoye(m): 6:16pm On Mar 01, 2012
I personally know a mother who took her daughter's child and gave her to the child's dad . .they are separated and live in different cities.

The woman said she did it because she wants them her child and the guy to get back together.

Both women are currently not in speaking terms.

The case is in court at the moment.

Now . .that's also a mother.

No.

She wants to check you out . . this is always a good sign. . .but that's about it.

She may use the date to check out your personality, interactions with her and maybe your pocket and class wink

Hey kokoye what a description!!
well . .you asked and I gave you a real-life example.

Mind you, these might not work on all guys.

Maybe it worked on me cos I like and wanted the lady as well . . I was also mature enough and ready to observe and appreciate the things I wanted in a wife.

First time I saw her, I thought in my mind that 'this is what I'd want my wife to look like' . .but i felt she looked to good and decent to be single at the time and did not make a move. We became good friends later on and she tried to hook me up with her friends cheesy

I don't agree with this I've also watched an interview of an ex pro, No guy would love his girl to be sleeping around with different men, remember they have a natural possessive attitude and that not withstanding no man will do that except of course the guy is only pretending to love her, but in real sense he doesn't
Well, I have seen husbands and wives who offer sex-providers to their spouses as birthday gifts.

These are people who have been married for decades.

and I aint nailing this down to any nationality . .

Do you know where they are? go with your family and law enforcement to get you baby by force if necessary

I hope you are in Nigeria

Unfortunately, some mothers will poison the child's heart . . make them believe their father ran away or does not care about them . . sad.
RomanceRe: How To Reveal Your Feelings by kokoye(m): 5:47pm On Mar 01, 2012
we were friends first . . of course

she started giving me special attention . .calling to check up on me . . multiple times in a day but not in a chocking manner.

she would stay on the phone with me even when we really had nothing to say . . availability

she picked up the tab at times when we went out - partnership

she suggested that we go to McDonalds instead of some expensive restaurant - for better or for worse

she was strong where I was weak and tried to compliment - completion

I was the last person she called or spoke with before she slept at night.  whatever


that's just me . . .

Ronke,

I'm surprised at you o . . are you telling me you have not seen or heard of such mothers??

And some husbands or wives that will do whatever their parents say??

common now!

FoodRe: Poundo Yam Or Pounded Yam? by kokoye(m): 5:32pm On Mar 01, 2012
Being an original ekiti-man, nature dictates I should love the original pounded yam with with the sweat of the pounders.

But then, I have been dissapointed several times with all those unexpected lumps you encounter while swallowing  angry

I know some pounders do get it right  .  . .but even they miss some spots at times.

Having said that, I miss my grandma for village , she will mix the yam with plantain before pounding . . wink

So . . .

awareness and enforcement

But I understand the fact that in Nigeria, some parents dont want to be seen as drivers to thier babies / toddlers.

Here, fathers drive while the mom sits in the 'owner's corner' with the baby in the center. . . i Know that will not happen with most people in Naija.

funny but sad.

Nope it is not the point of the thread, that!!!! right there is a different isssue entirely.
lol

Here's where I said it - the mother thinks no one else can love her son like she does . . not even the wife. they start to compare and scrutinize.

Then the wife starts having issues with that . . becomes a tug of war kinda.

But, like you said, let's not go into that  wink

I understand the unconditional love part. I get it.



Back to my original question . . so why do you think when asked to choose, most men would choose thier wives??


Is it because he does not love his kids unconditionally?

FamilyRe: The Nuclear Family by kokoye(op): 3:45pm On Feb 29, 2012

@ debrief08,

I get where you are coming from . . totally.

As for the person who is not yet married and thinks he or she knows what marital life is all about, you never know UNTIL you are in it.

The taste of the pudding is in the eating . .right?

So . . please dont judge anyone's thought process or 'comments' because you will NEVER be in their shoes.

Also, the child you unconditionally love would not have been around without that father. That child will leave you and start a life with someone else . .and the original question will arise again.

Again, this is not about who you should love more. Feel free to read my first lines again.

Think about it.
