That's someone like my sister too. Abeg, take your child from her, and go and give it to your friend |

Please ensure you have a clearly defined agreement with your friend, before you hand your daughter to her. 1. You should do a video call with your daughter at least twice a day. 2. This is a service your friend is rendering. Agree a weekly or monthly fee you will pay your friend for her services. Don't pay any school fees for your friend's child or children or any thing else. Agree a weekly or monthly fee with her for her services and be generous. 3. Agree a weekly(not monthly. Improves accountability) amount for your daughter's upkeep. That amount should be broken down and should detail the various elements of what your daughter needs each for school, for staying at home, for after school clubs, her feeding at least three times a day etc. Then naturally as you speak with your daughter daily, you'll gain an understanding of what other one off things she require and provide them accordingly. 4. Make sure you get regular if not daily feedback from your daughter on if she is getting the stuff you pay for each week. Ask to see them via vide calls. 5. Keep your arrangement with your friend very professional when it comes to your daughter. 6. You know your friend better than us. Is she married, what sort of a man is her husband? If she is single does she have a boyfriend? Or is she into one night stands? Does she have male cousins or brothers who live with her? Are men and boys always hanging around her apartment? These are the most important questions you must have to resolve. We live in a generation where most people's relationship with sex has become warped. You don't want your daughter to become someone's or some people's sex slave for several years. Finally, you must hold yourself accountable for this impasse. You left the most precious possession given to you "on trust" by the Creator of the universe, to go and chase after what in Europe? Money? Money that you will use to do what? Money that will become of no use if your daughter is raped severally and become mentally distorted and loses her humanness? Why do we continue to worship that which is useless and abandon the precious gifts on our laps? We have allowed greed to destroy the fabric of our lives. What is wrong with living in a one room face me I face you apartment in Nigeria? What is wrong with making do with what you have and ignore those claiming big boys and girls while their lives unravel before their eyes? You have thrown that innocent jewel of inestimable value to the wolves. For the next eight years at least, she may be subject to the demands of all sorts of wolves in sheep clothing. You are here in Europe without papers. You will be fortunate if you get papers that will allow you to stay within the next 8 years. Your number one priority right now should be to quickly find a way of retracing your steps and retrieving that innocent girl and take good care of her. Good care does not consist in buying expensive stuff for your kid. The greatest care you can give a helpless child is for her to see and know that there is someone by her side who will give his or her life to protect the child. You have failed miserably. I am so mad at what you have done! I hope you will find the courage in yourself to quickly retrace your steps before your daughter is finally lost and join the army of young girls and women in that country who are completely lost even without realising it.

Bro, take your daughter away from your sister! There's a 95% probability that she is not taking care of your daughter. I have such as an aunt! My mum died in 2016 I had to bring my sister to live with our aunt till I get my own place cos I was sqauting with my friend (after relating) it with her and she accepted She maltreated the hell out of my sister (her niece) for that matter. I had to take her to live with me in my friend's place, thanks to a tolerating and understanding friend I have. Most family members are not reliable in this present generation. Its so unfortunate! |

Fantazy:I am a woman. I will take her away from her soon , I will call my sis tommorow to tell her that I don't have anymore money to send her and I want my daughter to go and stay with my friend so she will put her in a cheaper school she will cover the expenses until I get back to my feet. This is the only way she will release her because she will not offer to cover the expenses for me. |

| Re: My Sister Is Draining Me Financially by Rememberdeath: 10:02pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
Chidiesta:It's quite unfortunate Sha. It's obvious she is not taking care of your daughter well enough. Don't allow your daughter's childhood to be horrible. All in the name of you don't want to offend your sister. Your sister is just being insensitive and not considerate. She is greedy and thinks it's all easy in Germany. She is just feeling entitled.. I will advice you to let your friend take care of the child if your trust her. If you still have your mum, that would be better. If you are a Catholic you can take her to Passionist sisters (Nuns) they take care of cases like this. And you can be rest assured that she will be in goods hands. Your daughter is young, please don't allow her childhood to be full of trauma all in the name of you don't want to offend your sister. You daughter won't forgive you when she grows older if she has Bad childhood memories. It is well ma'am |

Chidiesta:Please, don't waste your to remove your daughter from her care. The fact that she doesn't want to talk to your own daughter is the sign that your daughter is being maltreated. Please, don't waste time at all. |
| Re: My Sister Is Draining Me Financially by MrChriz: 10:15pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
Chidiesta:Op please whatever you are doing, let it be in the best interest of the child. Consider the safety and positive development of the child first. |
| Re: My Sister Is Draining Me Financially by Nobody: 10:27pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
Chidiesta:You must take responsibility for your actions. You made a daughter, you must care for her. No one will take care of your child better than you |
| Re: My Sister Is Draining Me Financially by NA1RALANDER(f): 10:30pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
Chidiesta:What about your daughter's father ?? I guess you maligned him and refused him access..?? Well.. do you.. |
| Re: My Sister Is Draining Me Financially by realtalk19: 10:32pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
Chidiesta:Chai! Devil in human form. If I have such a child in custody,I will take care of the child same as my other kids knowing so well my sis cares for us all. She just ruined her sister's trust. |
| Re: My Sister Is Draining Me Financially by Chidiesta(op): 10:38pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
benebaby77:I will not waste time again I will talk to my sister tommorow |
| Re: My Sister Is Draining Me Financially by Chidiesta(op): 10:41pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
realtalk19:Same as me if the case was reserve I will take care of her children like my own without being greedy. I don't think I will ever trust her again , as soon as my daughter leaves her house I will mot hate her but I will cut her off |

| Re: My Sister Is Draining Me Financially by speedxe1256(m): 11:01pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
she doesn't want you to video call? Lol,then your daughter is not happy. Only a matter of time your friend might act like your Sister, no matter how close you are.. Check this out! Through your friend, you can Enroll her in a good Catholic boarding school get the contact of any senior admin officer (female), explain everything you have written up there to her, make her see reasons why you need her to help you keep an eye on your daughter while in school and how you can also get in touch with your daughter through her. In all of these your friend can act as guardian while during holidays your daughter can go stay with her All I see in you is trying to preserve the relationship you have with your sister. Something similar happened to my friend in Benin, it didn't end well Do whatever you have to do to make your daughter happy and safe. |

Chidiesta:You're welcome. |
| Re: My Sister Is Draining Me Financially by AyoEniafe(m): 11:59pm On Aug 28, 2022 |
Chidiesta:Hello OP, I totally understand you. Same thing happened in my family, so I think you can use my advise. My aunt in the US left my young older cousins with her younger brother in Nigeria (my uncle). Uncle's wife wasn't so cool with the boys when my uncle now later got married. My aunt was stressed, she had to move the children to my grandma's house. Later had to move them to a woman who she's never seen before. Interestingly, this woman cared for them like they're her children until they graduated. LESSON: FORGET ALL THIS PEOPLE SHOUTING "BLOOD IS THICKER THAN WATER" Not all blood is thicker than water, some family members are just users/opportunists. Your sister is obviously using you as her major source of income. Don't let that affect your love for your sister anyway! The country is hard for her, no be her fault. If you feel uncomfortable with the child being in your sister's place, then you might want to make a careful inquiry about your friend. Research about your friend's character, her love towards you, how she treats people around her. Do your research well abeg. As for people saying you should take her to boarding house, your daughter will be deprived of love in boarding house oo. And when it's holidays, she'll have to vacate the hostel, so.... boarding house is out of it. Just pray about this matter sha. |

Please take your daughter away from her before it's too late. I'm talking base on experience. I also have a sis like that.quote author=Chidiesta post=116136754] She is a female and I am also a female, she is my childhood friend my sister knows her well and I trust her too and I strongly believe that she will take care of her better than my own sister.[/quote] |

| Re: My Sister Is Draining Me Financially by Harddiskng(m): 12:35am On Aug 29, 2022 |
Chidiesta: Offpointng:You better listen to this person and act fast. You think your daughter would tell you anything about being maltreated while answering your calls your sister’s presence lol. The fact that she doesn’t talk much is even a red flag. From the little i have seen in this life, I don’t support parents leaving their kids to live with family/family friends. Get your daughter out of their asap! What is the plan for her to be with you? You should strongly consider boarding house, it would give her a breather from whoever she is living with. Especially if she is to live with your friend. Girls are too vulnerable. Pray about your decision. |
