Hvae your own kids and it will reduce the attention and space they occupy in your heart. And since you are already sweet to them, they will be nice to your children too as cousins. 1 Like |

Samantha124:Hi there baby lawyer! Interesting... A Sepedi initiation ceremony... Are you from a royal family? Second, Samantha, it's quite natural... Moreover as a female, you've got maternal instincts in you. Most of all, you practically saw them grow from childbirth right up to this moment. I'm certain you'll make a great and intentional mum. For me as a man, my younger sister's son was smart for his age and also handsome as a kid. So, I just naturally liked him like he was my own biological son as well. He also played those teenage rebellions as well from above the age of 16 years... it certainly had to do with the raging hormones in the teenage years. I had to talk to him to keep him in check... Now, he's about to leave the teenage years and move to the next phase in life. Nice thread. |

Samantha124:Ah, alright then Samantha. A "great uncle" you say?... Well thank you dear. We'll keep trying. I'll talk to you later. Take care. |

Klass99: I was making a reference to the Mandinka tribe. Kunta kintes tribe. They had a &'manhood training' camp where all boys were taken too on their teens. Like some proto boot camp. Taught to hunt, live off the land etc. It culimated in the Kasas boyo operation (circumcision) where the hood was cut off the foto (Mandinka word for penis) Incidentally several African cultures also practice circumcision or fgm as part of the rites of passage for females from childhood to womanhood. Ultimately though these trainings have as much relevance as southern debutante ceremonies. 1 Like |

Samantha124: Can you please explain the bolded? Who has the protection order, you or his father? |
Re: Have You Ever Found Yourself Emotionally Attached To Your Siblings' Children? by Nobody: 7:55am On Jun 26, 2023 |
Me. And before you make judgements with that angry face of yours, just know that the court must first have sufficient evidence in order to grant a person a protection order, it's not something that's just given out just like that. There must also be some people who are willing to testify to the matter at hand. But I can't stop loving an innocent child based on his father's wrong doings. cho25bc: |

Samantha124: Lol. My apologies . I didnt mean for the emoji to be an angry one but a confused one, meaning that i was confused about who has the protection restrain order between you and your cousin's dad. Im sorry once again if you got me wrong. What i asked is that who has the restrain/protection order? Is it you or the father? That statement wasnt clear to me and that's why i highlighted it for you. And im glad that you have clarified it for me. And i will never judge you for anything . I dont even know what you did wrong. Anyway, keep loving the lovely boy. His spirit will reward you one day 1 Like |

I am like you. I absolutely love my nieces and nephews. Infact, I am just like a "child" around them so they warm to me more than other uncles and aunts.... sometimes I feel their parents cannot take care of them the way I will do. Weird ooh 1 Like |

I love my aunt/uncle and their kids I'd do anything for my nephew and nieces. They are great part of my story, I'm glad dad let me move in with different families at a tender age that makes me share bond with different family. 1 Like |

Yankiss:She is just being vague with you people here, Thie initiation she is talking about in what they call the mountain is the traditional way of CIRCUMCISION,.. unlike every other sane people who caries out circumcisionion to male kids immediately after birth or 7 days with respect to christianity, South africans do their when a guy reaches the age of 16/17/18 and above...In this barbaric practice a lot of them die in the mountain during this initiation...the call it welcoming you into adulthood what er experienced as infants, imagine the unbearable pains of cutting the foreskin with unsterilized local equipments, Till date they still have grown ass men in theor 30s with uncircumsized dicks. @Samantha124 did i lie? 1 Like 1 Share |
