18days ago he said his wife leaving is not an issue, because he has been the one taking care of the children. I wonder how that is possible given he didn't know what to do when the last child was sick.

This remains a major issue in many marriages. Men trivialise the emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual labour women bring in. Some while contributing financially. If these kids were with the woman, they will still mock her for being a single mother and say she cannot raise quality kids. But single fathers do not actively raise the kids. They still depend on the female community (mother, sister, another wife) around them to do the raising.
Just like the women rely on uncles, brothers and boyfriends to assist. No one can raise children single-handily. You must get help. Ned Nwoko is raising his children himself abi? Very easy for men and women to mock single mothers ke, till they on the receiving end.

True, nobody can do it alone.
The difference is, women do not mock single fathers or stigmatise the kids raised by a single father of any form.

I am just seeing this is Kanwulia.
Happy new year, Ma. I saw "K" and thought it was someone else. Nice to see you again.

Thanks Ms P. grin Good to see you too. This ID was banned for 10 years. It just re-surfaced with password saved. Thank my lucky stars I never changed devices. grin

You know our Nigerian society remains anti-women. One of our family helper’s wife just left him to raise 5 children by himself. The wife decided she was done with the marriage and preferred “women companionship”! The man is doing a wonderful job. With more men becoming single parents, they will learn to be respectful. Give them time.

I got banned because I posted my “torrro” pic to annoy Tpia. grin Just to prove I was female. cheesy

Our father of 5 is not having it easy o. Grey hair has covered his whole body. He might start selling “ body parts” to raise money soon. His first child is only 13!

My dad was also a single parent. But my mom supported all the way. We lacked nothing. My dad suffered gaaaaaan. Finally died at 66. The stress kills men faster.

You really disturbed that year, Ma.😩

Ahh, it almost sounded like he was having it easy. Which one come be grey hair for body again? Single parenting is not easy. Even when you have money to buy a lot of support, it still gets hard. OP and his wife should work out something for the sake of his kids. May your dad's soul continue to rest in peace 🕊.

Your wife left you and you're crying,that means you're a lazy man
He is not a lazy man, according to him he is the one taking care of the kids, he is only crying because he felt betrayed.

Which country are you pple?
You people had unresolved issues coz she cannot just decided to leave like that leaving 4 good children behind without any cause or with the way you narrated it here.
You are hiding a lot from us.
leaving four children she gave birth to behind speaks volume of the kind of person she is.

According to him, his wife felt betrayed long before she made the decision to leave him with the kids. So, should his feelings of betrayal matter more than that of his wife? 🥱🥱

so na Egypt na be the paradise when she leave children to go. Bros nothing spoil just check your self well. If you have an asset liquidate it find one beautiful house girl when set well well probably from middle belt put for house. Find way to increase by your income. and keep pushing the rougher the sea the smoother the sail . Women too plenty just find money bro. Enough of all this whining.

Your wife was definitely associating with low class women for her to abandon her family for Egypt of all countries. She is going there to do house-girl and risks being sexually abused/exploited. Any day a strange foreign number starts calling you, please pick up. Because she might be needing the help of Abike soon.

Egypt? Was the marriage that bad that she had to make herself available for sex work or worse still househelp.

Brace up and take care of your kids.So that they won't grow up and someone will take them to Kuwait .

Shagala precisely...the term for house girl

You people should leave all this single mothers talk. No excuse for a woman to wake up and abandoned her children except ashawoo dey her eyes before.

The last thing you need is to spend your time monitoring the life of someone who left you. Even if she wan go Libya, e no suppose concern you as you have there 4 people there who need your attention. Please stop getting yourself distracted with the mundane and focus your energy on what matters which is you raising your children even better than their mother would have been able to has she remained with you. 🥱🥱

I knew money was the problem, but I didn't expect this level of desperation and brokeness. It was definitely very bad for her to find solace in the kind of women who move to Egypt. Her level of education and friendship is questionable.
Re: Help! My Wife Left Me With 4 Kids. by Onegai(f): 4:51pm On Jan 29
There's this thing I heard that women in the 40s, 50s and 60s are doing: on a travel visa, they go to another country and do 5 months of domestic work, then come back, rest for 1 or 2 months and go back.

Surprisingly the women doing this are what I would call Middle Class. And it's hard work on them.

But at least those are Western countries, with systems in place to protect them.

Egypt and any Arab country is a big NO!!

The wicked friends that deceived, preyed on her resentment and manipulated this woman (they recruit for agents and get a cut) will never know peace.

Chai.

The stories that come out from Egypt and Arab countries are heart breaking and scary.I don't wish my enemy such experience.

Surprisingly, her elder brother even gave her full supports and deceived me as if he didn't know anything about it. Very unfortunate!
