Bro Tveeeeee happy Sunday o! Hope you are all doing good.

We are all well thanks - having some issues with TV02 sha angry. When I invite him to eat with me - trying to teach him sharing - he now insists on having his own fork - thwarting my efforts to feed him a few small pieces then shoo him awayundecided!

And it's worse than I thought. Yesterday I was prepping my salmon and he come up and said "I set a placemat for you daddy". I was so pleased. Little did I know he had a cunning plan

I now sat down to eat ), and he suddenly appeared - fork in hand. And while I was busy cycling from fish to salad to rice, my man just attacked the fish. "Ah, ah" I said, "sharing daddy" he replied. I then had to change my whole chop strategy so as not to lose out on fish angry!

My daughter is still on milk, but how will I cope with the two of them when she grows teeth My wife just laughs and doesn't appear to grasp how serious this is sad. Please I need advice, no abuse 0 grin

tearoses:
Ive seen women who "enjoy" their status. Especially the ones who took their partners to the cleaners and are getting heaps of child support and the family home.
They go out and have sex when they feel like, (usually with other womens husbands) and generally just do what they want, when they want. . . usually the owambe "yellow pawpaw" ladies at parties every week.
Those ones are not my main thrust. As it's not like they simply had children without committed fathers - or more iportantly being able to extract support from the fathers.

It's just like you've outlined it, a conscious decision to use the laws to effect their own selfish needs and desires. So whilst, she may be happy, men and children still suffer , so from a "flourishing point of view, it's still sub-optimal.

It's a growing trend. Ewuro4 mentioned one of her neigbhours who did such. It needs it's own thread.

tearoses:
There are also some who are milking the system for all its worth. I personally know of one. A man in her life will put a stop to her benefits so she is "happy" to pop kids but with no resident man.
Apart from Sweden and perhaps some other Scandinavian countries, I know of no country with a benefits system that allows a woman to dispense with the need for a man.

Although to note your point, if the man is effectively deadbeat, she may live relatively better without him. Again, kids suffer (or put another way, do not do as well) just from the absence of a father. I guess benefits + something from the fathers sha? Although will it go where it should - on the kids? As no one checks undecided

tearoses:
These women think they are enjoying now, but it is later on that they will realise how stupid they are.
I agree. Even with exceptions. And do not feel it should be normalised or considered a choice without consequences.

tearoses:
Of course there are others living in poverty, stigmatised, lonely, unhappy and crave to be in a happy and fulfilled relationship. One of the many things that marriage offers is companionship. A widow/widower will tell you how much they miss this.
When I was a church rat, the hassle I got from single mothers almost drove me out. All because I showed kindness to their kids. That alone is a big draw - help with the kids, especially sons. Help with the costs and companionship and support.

One really painful thing is that when families rally around a single-parent family, both the parent and child have an amplified sense of what they are missing embarassed!

The data is incontrivertible. Single-parenthood is a big indicator of poverty. Not to mention how much hardwork - with little or no respite - it must be. My wife is always asking how they cope or why anyone would choose that?

To teach children to share, you should not only share your own meals but you should share his too, especially food groups that are considered favourites and sometimes try to eat more than your fair share of this favourite. My kids never really had a problem with sharing but my son had anger issues and I always try to mirror his behaviour back in the simplest way he can understand, he is much better at not lashing out and throwing things when angry now. Best wishes...............

....hmmmm, cheers.

He doesn't have any problems sharing, in fact whenever he's eating or snacking he's usually quite insistent that I "have some daddy". And if I ask there's never a problem.

He likes fish - something I agitated for undecided - and now whenever he spots it being prepared or ready, he gets a glint in his eye - in fact any food he likes. I thought I was safe yeaterday, as he had already eaten rice & plantain with broccoli and carrots. He then asked for extra rice, which I gladly gave him thinking he'd be too full to tax me. Not only that, he had actually raided his mum before I ate.

I can't let this guy outsmart me, I've already lost ground to him in electronics/gadgets. Although I may come back to you about "anger". He has the occassional tantrum which I deal with in the traditional way wink. That plus sanctions means he's responding well - but I'll keep an eye out for that as it's not something I've really envisaged.

I having red bream tonight. Tuesday it's "almost raw" tuna, hopefully that will put him off. We will know who is great white and who is orca angry!

As per TV02, Its a stage they always outgrow (infact you'll beg for it later) . Just lay down your own rules regarding his fork quest ( "TV , only 3 bites and you're done okay? "wink kids respond well to ground rules, that I know.

You should even be thankful he's eating your meals. Some kids won't touch their parents meals with a long stick cheesy
I ordered 3 diff wings (honey garlic, Buffalo, breaded ) yesterday , my eldest didn't come close to my me while my middle & her minion finished the whole honey & breaded before I say jack. I give them 4 years tops before they join her (first) trend.

It's a cool beautiful Monday morning here ... Enjoy the rest of your day folks.

I recall you mentioning there was a man on the scene, not sure if he had moved in. I remeber it was qucik, quick too.

My first response is don; tthese guys have any cojonés angry? But if there are kids involved, he may not be able to see them if he is anything less than amenable to his ex and her toyboy.

I actually have a friend who was booted out as his wife wanted to trade - the usual he is not ambitious enough/worthy of me rubbish. It was a wierd one one as he was so gentle, she couldn't even pin DV on him, so he slept downstairs in a spare room for over a year while the divorce was proceeding. He pleaded with her throughout. How odd must that have been for kids?

The twist. She married some low paid dorky looking oyinbo (which Naija man wants someone after multiple children?). He hooked up with the most gorgeous multi-ethnic woman and has never been happier. He dated a Naija girl before the new one, but she was pushing for marriage and he wouldn't budge, so they parted.

He says his ex-wife was not only a ghastly person, but a "crapshag", and the pleading was just because he doted on the children. They share custody, so there's no reason for him not to be jovial.

Cheers J. I just get the sense that the brother is outsmarting me and I need to lay down markers now I like your rules thingy though. I'm more the "Arican dad who barks direct orders and expects to be obeyed". He's always negotiating? I mean he's barely 3, who taught him to do

Re: Boys Night Out Discussions by Ewuro4: 7:49pm On Jun 01, 2015
Tearoses called me Akproko #1 over her case years ago sef.

TV01 .. Yesohoo there're kids involved. @your friend's example (happily E.A) isn't the case for every man out there. I saw him at the ice cream shop and we talked a bit. He literally lives in hotel suite and the whole divorce is taking a toll on his psyche. He looked scruffy ( a physician ). You can sense he's holding up because of those kids. And I'm afraid he's going to lose them eventually because he's moving out of the province. I said lose them because of another man involved in their ( kids) lives, he (other man) basically plays a dad role. Though the first child was quite rebellious and rude to him ( rude by my own definition, calling him by his first name like a slave grin).

As per the boy toy .. It's his what now, third summer? and the whole neighbourhood housewives are looking forward to his seasonal show of shame grin I'm very certain my other neighbour is busy watching him via her crazy translucent glass. The dude mows lawn almost naked while she's out and about the yard kissing him to shame us all cheesy

I had an argument with hubby in our bedroom and my daughter mustve overheard us (bloody ac/heat vents) and studied our countenance throughout the week. The next thing she said at the dinner table was shocking " you guys should not tear this family apart like **'s " shocked . She's friend with neighbour's daughter since they're toddlers so I wonder what she's feeding her? If a neighbour's divorce can have that much impact on her, I wonder how many therapy sessions the impacted kids will attend per week.

You should see the kids crying during drop offs, oh my. very sad. I have many occasions rushed out to carry the youngest with a treat to console them. He just drives off without looking back, I'm sure he's teary too.

The whole marriage institution is a game for some. I could care less though. Honestly, it's not my business how other people run their lives. I'm only worried about the children involved. That's my only consern.

There's always "damage". And I don't think I've seen one where the kids weren't hurt and confused. My friend was very lucky. His case is certainly not typical of the ones I know of.

You see them, glazed eyes, uninterested at gathering, associating with other men who have suffered the same and venting against women and the court system. I hate divorce, I detest home-wreckers

The funny thing is that divorce has been shown to be catching. It kind of trends and there are lots of women tempted to destabalize their homes as they personally have nothing to lose as the law essentially affirms and rewards their choices - no matter how damaging to others.

Please update us when; he moves on, someone else moves in, another neighbour ploughs the same route,or the guy gets involved with a friend or neighbour. You lose religion and the anchor it provides families, and you lose families

I no go lie - I try and limit contact we have with non-traditional familes. TV02 already knows all his first cousins, uncles, aunts, grandparents, what a wife, husband, son and daughter are. No time.

Yes but the climate of marriage and the examples by others affect everyone and become internalised by impressionable youngsters. Marriage is a societal artefact and we have to maintain it together. All marriages affect marriage overall - even if it's not readily apparent.

I'm vexed jor. What with the Irish and all recently.

Re: Boys Night Out Discussions by Ewuro4: 11:32pm On Jun 01, 2015
TV01 , Nah no vex. I'll surely notify you on the updates as they roll in wink

@TV02 negotiations.... Do you also notice that most of these obodo oyinbo kids aren't scared of their parent threats one tiny bit?? grin Who taught him? Nobody. The lil brother is just one confident son of God. They naturally possess that sense of security and self esteem that nothing seem to shake them. 'thought I'm the only one who noticed that.

We call family meeting now and discuss ground rules hehe.. I told hubby to look into getting one of those intercom phones next couple of years because I can't scream anymore (so you can stop barking your orders cos it doesn't work grin) and secondly, walking back and forth upstairs to call a child for supper is just ridiculous & I'm not getting any younger. I mean, Who has the time for that when I was a kid?

P.S. I'll look into gradually separating my girl from that kid. Thanks for the hint.

NHS - in addition to what has been said they lack business management skills and transformation. They are years behind

They dont have shareholders or need to make profit and they dont have competitors. They also wont go bust and the govt will keep on pumping money in for the forseeable future, hence their easy does it "attitude" to things.


Ive worked in both the NHS and the private sector
It was very different & it was a great culture shock to me.
Every job I had within the NHS was easy and didnt tax me. 2 teabreaks and one long lunch break away from my desk every day and worked not a second over my 35 hours.
The day I started in private sector I was handed a laptop, had a login waiting for me and I got to work straight away.

Thanks SC/TR

Came across this online too
Interesting read, this would be the major issue IMO
@the bolded - I had to reconfirm we are not talking about the general hospital in Coogar's village tongue tongue Isnt this "modernized" corruption by the investors?? tax-payers money in action indeed!



New figures reveal weight of PFI burden on NHS trusts
David Kingman explores some new figures which demonstrate the unsustainable burden private finance initiative (PFI) contracts are placing on a large number of NHS trustsEmergency room entrance at the hospital

The controversy over PFI deals in the NHS shows no sign of dying down, according to recently released figures. These show that the total bill for PFI repayments has increased by nearly £200 million in just two years, from £459 million in 2009/10 to £628.7 million in 2011/12 (these amounts only apply to NHS trusts in England).

The figures, which were released as part of a new report by the healthcare think tank the Nuffield Trust, showed that PFI repayments have risen by an average of 18% a year over the last two years.

What’s gone wrong with PFI?

For the uninitiated, a useful guide to PFI schemes and the problems which are associated with them is available here:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/healthnews/8779598/Private-Finance-Initiative-where-did-all-go-wrong.html

To summarize, PFI deals have become problematic for three major reasons: they usually have very high interest rates, they impose much higher debts upon the taxpayer than the actual value of the infrastructure they originally helped to build (in 2011 the taxpayer owed £121.4 billion to pay for infrastructure which was only valued at £52.9 billion) and they often include expensive maintenance and service contracts which charge the public purse vastly inflated fees for performing simple tasks (one PFI hospital was apparently charged £333 to have a new light bulb installed under the terms of their maintenance contract, for example).

As PFI repayments come out of hospital budgets, they also divert money away from other services which the hospital could be providing, and can lead to redundancies, ward closures and the loss of departments if resources are spread too thinly. This is especially difficult in an era when most NHS trusts are facing squeezed budgets anyway, because of rising demand for services.

Regional burden

The report from the Nuffield Trust makes it clear that the burden of PFI schemes is not distributed evenly across the NHS. Variations in the number of new schemes which used PFI financing in different geographical areas have created a strong regional imbalance.

NHS trusts in London have by far the biggest burden from PFI repayments, followed by the West Midlands. In the last financial year, NHS trusts in London spent £143.9 million on PFI repayments (nearly a quarter of the total in England), which was nearly five times higher than the amount spent by NHS trusts in the region with the smallest burden from PFI debts, the South West, where the figure was a comparatively modest £26.9 million.

The report also highlights specific NHS trusts which are having to spend a particularly large proportion of their overall budgets on servicing PFI schemes. In England, there are now seven trusts where PFI repayments account for more than 5% of total revenue:

• Dartford and Gravesham NHS Trust (7.9% of spending)

• Sherwood Forest Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (7%)

• South London Healthcare NHS Trust (6%)

• Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (5.8%)

• Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust (5.6%)

• Peterborough and Stamford Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (5.6%)

• St Helens and Knowsley Hospitals NHS Trust (5.3%)

South London Healthcare NHS Trust made unwelcome headlines in 2012 when it announced it was being put into administration, and its future is yet to be fully resolved. The report also emphasizes that interest repayments on PFI debts are mostly up-rated using the retail price index measure of inflation (RPI), which tends to be higher than other measures, such as the consumer price index (CPI). It also means that government policies which have an impact on RPI can indirectly cost the NHS money in higher PFI repayments.

A growing problem?

Despite the disconcerting figures which this report brings to light, the government is still continuing to give further PFI projects the green light. IF has previously published research (“The public finance initiative and intergenerational equity”) which argued that this is deeply unfair on future generations, who will still be paying for these schemes long after their benefits have been exhausted.

They also seem to be having a negative impact on many NHS trusts today as well. As Dr Mark Potter, Chairman of the British Medical Association, said in response to the launch of this report, “It is clear that the financial burdens of PFI continue to create problems for many hospitals.”
