LMAO. . . .I'm positive this guide is meant for people like Uju who will accept to be a man's slave just to impress him. Have you ever thought about working and doing all of this for a man? Does it sound right to you? What do you get in return? Please, don't tell me you'll do it "out of love".

What nonsense part do women have to play? This is not the age of when the man will go hunting and the woman stays home to take care of 15 children. Is that the kind of life you picture having with that your husband? Get out of the box, please.

I know about doing things together but I don't know about being a man's mule. I will do things because I want to and not because "I'm expected to". Good wife my late Grandma!

Someone actually did it and doesn't see what's wrong with such action.

I've become the enemy for tellin her it's not proper. What is wrong is wrong as much as people try to twist it.

Just a quick question, people.

Your mother has breast cancer and decides to leave Nigeria to come take treatment in the country where you reside and stays with you. You have 2 other siblings (1 is married with a baby and the other is single) who live in a different country.
You've been staying and taking care of your mother for about 2 months.

Then, you have a boy you've been dreaming to meet for about 1 year now. You've been talking to him and all that.

People, will you leave your mother to go visit this dude in another country for 2 months while your brother comes to stay with her for the time you'll be gone? Reason, being that "you need a break from all the stress".

She has cancer, you're a woman, she doesn't want you to go 'cause she wants you around her, she's scared of her illness. Would you turn a deaf ear and a blind eye and still go away for 2 months to meet a boy?

Why is it a surprise?? Because it's NL? Get real, dude.

Funny Land.

Congrats, Jimrite family

So, which is the real picture of the couple? Gamine's or Nana's

Kobojunkie:
I know it is possible to be poor and happy/content. I have spent some years there myself and I believe that experience was needed.

Obviously, everyone's been there but you don't remain there and be content. Like I said, that hardship is the motivating factor for a change.

[quote author=naija_diva link=topic=154309.msg2563695#msg2563695 date=1217124311]you shouldn't focus all your energy on the negative because all it leads to is depression and doesn't change anything.[/quote]Yes it does. By the time you watch one child starve to death believe me you'll wake up and definitely fight for a change instead of sit and be "content".

What's the positive side of poverty if I may ask? Happiness? No, Joy? No, Misery? Yes.

My dear the negative side of poverty is the motivating factor. Don't be satisfied with mediocrity.

I really wonder if people actually prefer to be poor in this day and age. . .

Sometimes I'm a bit relieved that I've seen it all but hell NO!! WTF!!!

Shit! I'm speechless What a flamming shame!

A Nigerian man?? That's crazy! So the woman at 28 has gone just like that?? _*sigh* Very sad life we living  

LOL. . . half?? Are they lying to Nigerians or foreigners? Buncha crackheads!!

What a sick donkey! Pray you don't face the consequences first. Foolish pig.

I think Watford will be good for you

Can't stop loving Siasia. I was tellin someone that Siasia ain't joking about dropping Mikel and he thought the "Naija factor" would work this time around.

Mikel, gerrout and kiss your boots in ur closet!!

Is it that serious??

America!

Ow11, very true.

LOL. . . . America and their 'give and take' attitude.

Enugu, does not even qualify to be called a parking lot let alone an airport.

Rofl

Upgrade Enugu airport? If you have to "upgrade" Enugu airport then what d'u do to Lagos? Even Abuja airport isn't worth to be an Int'l airport and you tell me about Enugu?

The Govt needs to upgrade their brain cells more like.

All that should be hoped for is that they do a very good job.

Can't even imagine what Lagos will be like in this period. Phew!!

Ohh yeah, you sure do remember.

LMAO!! Janami, don't be scared to mention my name

janami:
pests and rodents arent allowed to be with people

I understand

janami:
can u read? nuttin in my post suggets the boy is being maltreated, but i guess u ve been hearing noises u assume is the boy crying? well there is yaba left for that, dnt start dara - ing here.
tell a 19 yr old girl to lose her virginity freely if she wants or hire a maid, pay, feed, give shelter, clothe and an education, which one is child abuse? oga o.
the legal age to you is from 16, the moral age is not from 16, get that.
seeing that i have a life outside of nairaland that u clearly dnt have . . . . . i gotsa do smtg more imptt . . . . bring it on? u even still talk like a high schooler. lol

Lol. . . you're talking about moral age. There's no specific moral age, it just depends on the person. If my child at 19 wishes to loose her virginity by all means I'll give her all the advice in this world to protect her from diseases and unwanted pregnancies. I can't stop her 'cause she might end up doing it at my back. Morally speaking, 19 is not a bad age. What's your take on it? 25?

Morally speaking again, in Nigeria some people like you think beating is the best way to "deal with a little thief" but legally you'll be in for it.

What are you trying to tell me here? You trying to cover up your shame? You should even be more ashamed trying to do that. Get lost abeg!

janami:
Rude, truth?your truth is not truth at all, you're just assuming and screaming. how strongly can u back your truth? u freely tell a 19yr old girl who is probably still in school to hv sex if she wants and you're here ranting about child abuse, abegi, make we hear word.

I can "back" my truth with all you've told us. All I've said here was based on what you told us. Guess you were expecting a pat on the back but it hit u right in the face.

Last I checked, the legal age for sex in almost all countries was 16-18. Some 14. Bet you're clueless. Is that the topic now? Bring it on you looser

janami:
beta watch it. your reply shows your rudeness. i play with some things but i dnt play wit my mother or take any stupid comments from outsiders about her. so watch it

tell d living wetin? lol, u too small for my side o besides, the boy is here grinning away with his overstuffed belly of food, did i hear him complaining to you or do u hear him crying to u at night?

i strted d thread for worthwhile suggestions, not nutty ones

There are many words to describe the truth including "rude". I understand that. Ain't taking no letter of my words back.

You were the one who told us how you've beaten the boy to the extent that your hands hurt. You can't edit that now 'cause we've all seen it. So please, do feed him so that he'll have energy to endure your beatings. Useless thing.

lucabrasi:
my point isnt any diffrent from what i v been on about all along,in a country where there is no social welfare,poverty e.t.c parents who get their children in homes as houseboys/maids count themselves lucky because contrary to what you been saying ,the alternatives to being a housemaid/boy is far worse for them check my last comment to sowhat77$cute n hot which is just a tip the iceberg of what kids on the street go through

Guess we're both saying the same thing tho' you seem to regard some form of abuse higher than the other. It's all child abuse regardless of the degree of abuse and the reason for it.

janami:
so my mum is doing an abnormal thing? u sure are a foolish one. anyway, i have no reason to trade words with u, just get out of my thread, you're not welcome here. i have better people with more sane suggestions to listen to

The fact that a woman happens to be your mother don't mean she has/is/will always do the right thing. Sad you didn't know that.

How much did you pay to start this thread? Don't let me tell the living life off you.

janami:
@Radiant.
Miss maid activist, wont u just jump at the idea of having a maid ?
Try to be true to yourself and stop jumping to hasty judgements
u talk about civilization and child abuse but u ve not shown any cicilization in answering me whatsoever. Anyway, if u dnt have anything good to say but try to poke at trouble, just keep quiet

I have every good thing to say on this matter. Any sane person wouldn't hire a 12 yr old kid as maid. If this isn't abnormal to you then I wonder what else you want me to tell you.

I think you're the one who needs to stfu and go do the right thing.

Miss helper, has that poor child eaten today?

janami:
@radiant
what exactly is your point? do u side to stealing?

Radiant:
If he steals and you can't teach him any better then send him back home. That's how to treat a "maid that steals".
