Family / Re: Are Children Really An Achievement?? by MsFaith: 5:06pm On Dec 13, 2021
Supreme145:
There is this motion that giving birth to children is an achievement in this country. I see young guys in mid and late twenties rushing into marriage while they are barely standing on their feet. From someone that comes from a family of 10 I'm sure if my dad is given a second chance he won't give birth as much children again. Let me share some of my experiences as regards giving birth without proper planning or sustainable income.

I've a neighbor in my compound, he's 32 and in his final year in the university, I can hardly have decent conversation with him without hearing about how he wants to get married. I would always remind him that he's living in a one room apartment, still a student without a strong source of income, but he would counter me saying that he can always start small and grow with his wife. Moreover when he gives birth he would have an investment.

I've have another friend that was a classmate in secondary school, he graduated the year I got admission though he had some issues with his results. One day he called me that he's married and I was surprised, though he is an artisan into all those parapets and pop stuffs I know he wasn't financially buoyant enough to carry a family. The last time I visited him he was looking malnourished and unable to sort out his issues in school almost four years after because according to him any money that he gets already has a pending issue waiting for it. He's looking far older than his elder brother who's still single, he looks 38 when he's just 30. He consoled himself by telling me that even if he doesn't have money he already has two kids which he sees an investment and a great achievement. Meanwhile they are cramped into a single room apartment and none of the kids are enrolled in school.

Last week while we were training in the evening, an argument broke out between two young guys. I was just by the side observing what was happening, I kept hearing stuffs like....why you dey argue with that guy? you no know say na person father he be? that guy don born two children o abi you think say e easy to born, na big achievement be that o. Now this is a guy that is about 25 years and has no sustainable means of income, he works in peoples farms and other menial jobs to make ends meet.

My next door married neighbor has become a torn in my flesh, he's always borrowing from me without paying so it's obvious he's struggling financially, factor in the constant arguments with his wife due to shortage of funds all the time. I once asked him why rushed to get married without a good source of income and he bluntly told me that he had always been broke while he was single and still broke now that he's married the only difference is that he can boast of his kids as an achievement unlike when he was single that he had nothing to boast of.

I have no issues what so ever with how anyone choose to life their life but considering the economic condition of this country now bringing in kids without proper plans is not the way to go. If my dad had given birth to maybe 3 kids I'm sure he wouldn't be stressed out the way he is now and the resources used in training 8 kids would be better managed on just 3kids.

Personally I feel that one of the surest way to perpetual poverty as a young guy is to get married while struggling financially. Like one of the examples above, he cast aside his personal development and aspirations just to cater for his family. Supposing he's still single I'm sure he would have cleared he's outstanding school fees and maybe get his certificate.

Well since I'm still single and still struggling I don't judge anybody, every mallam to his kettle. As for me no marriage till I'm financially stable enough to afford at least 3 bedroom flat, a small car and substantial savings. It would be an abomination for me to bring a child into this world to pass through the kind of life I had growing up.

Another thing. Make sure your wife is working and contributing financially to the family.

E dey important, else, your little go wreck

Happiest Birthday to a man who rose above his height and achieved success. You have paid your dues in the entertainment space.

The same cannot be said regarding some tall men who could have made a living by playing basketball but decided to embrace Zombie work and all they get is 30K Monthly BMC stipend just to asslick a popular failure from the North side of the corntree.

Family / Re: How Did Our Ladies Turn To Single Parent? by MsFaith: 9:35pm On Dec 11, 2021
A serious topic of discussion.

Aside those who were legally married before they lost their husbands or divorced, single motherhood is a no no.

It’s better to wait longer for marriage to happen than rush to have kids outside wedlock.

I have come to realises that it’s mostly caused by lack of exposure and enlightenment on the part of these parents. Illiterates and parents that don’t like to read exhibit these terrible parenting styles.

I can’t imagine reading posts and comments like yours and still be hardened to mal-handle my unborn kids when I have them.

It’s highly important to marry a well educated spouse if you want the best for your kids

My former neighbour always beats her daughter for every little thing. They are always locked up in their 1 room apartment so there’s no way one can interfere to control the woman or the little girl to at least run away from this emotionally injured mother of hers.

It’s always so painful hearing this girl cry for help when she’s under torture. It’s one of the reasons I packed out of that house. My heart couldn’t take it anymore.

Family / Re: How Do Pastor Children Cope? by MsFaith: 7:51am On Dec 06, 2021
Vision101:
It's really difficult to be a pastor, pastor's wife or pastor's child. So much expectations. Everybody watches you. If you do what others are doing your friends will remind you that you are pastors son.

As a pastor if you have a bad tenant you can't do what other landlords to bad tenants. If you try it the same bad tenant will remind you that you call yourself a pastor.

If someone hits your car, you can't talk angrily on the road. Within minutes someone that knows you will emerge. I have had to spend #700k this year on my car that was totally damaged by someone that could not afford #20k.

You can't eat anywhere you want. When you attend parties you can't eat in public. Everyone brings their problems to you but you have no one to take your problem to.

It's worse for those of us that render free service. Your children only see sacrifices. They become scared to become pastors. Statistics show that majority of pastors seeds have no desire to be one.

When I carry my own too far, my wife will remind me that she didn't marry me as a pastor but as an accountant. My son will tell me that there are various routes through Jesus to heaven.

Will the world ever understand?

My own is, can’t you people be godly men without necessarily becoming a pastor?

Just imagine burning to death in this volcanic fire only to perish and find oneself in the pit of Hell with Satan and his demons for all eternity.

This people were not Christians. They knew not Jesus. They died unsaved. Men women and children. To think they have been tortured in Hellfire for 1942 years and this is not even the beginning of the start of their suffering.

Nawa ooooooooooooo!

They’ve lied to us a long time ago. Let’s start emancipating ourselves from this lies.

Whether christian or not we all go the same place when we die.
