At least attend to the sick baby first, or what sorta Nurses are these? I guess they don't teach healthcare providers in Nigeria the Principle of non-maleficence/Do no harm because that's what she's indirectly doing.
FamilyRe: My Mother Is Toxic And Agrresive!! by TheWinterBird(m):
Tallesty1:
There is nothing she can do to change her, even if she were younger.

My concern is the poster; sometimes when adults criticize parents like this, it may be because they have started seeing the traits of the parent in themselves.

My current landlady is a toxic woman; she terrorizes everyone in the compound with shouts and swears. When I was new here, she was always beating her househelp, later learned that the girl was her brother's kid. The girl was fourteen, and her body was covered with marks from the beatings. I called the woman one day and asked, 'How long has this girl been with you?' She said that January would make it two years. I replied, 'And you beat her at least once every two days. That means that by January which is like two weeks away, you alone would have beaten her 365 times. Why?'

She was really shocked; I think no tenants have confronted her before.

I told her that if she beats her again, I will record her and send it to people who will jail her. The beating stopped, but the shouts and the swears didn't stop.

Her daughter hates her because of that. When I asked why she hates her mom, she said it's because of the way she shouts at everyone and disturbs people. I said, 'Okay,' but I was convinced that her hatred stems from the fact that she sees a lot of her mother in herself.

I was at home working one day when the daughter started her own shouting. When she was done, I said to her, 'Do you know that everyone here knows when you are around and when you're not?' She got the message and started crying. We had a long talk later.

Everyone in that house shouts and curses like the landlady. 'Thunder fire you' is like saying 'good morning.' 'Idiot,' 'ezi,' 'pig,' 'useless human being' is like asking, 'How are you doing? How was your day?'

My point?

The OP should work more on himself abi herself, because s/he have a lot of the mother within. It will manifest with time.
Awesome post.

I don't agree that he may be like his mother, though. Kids definitely take after their parents, like I've the most loving and kindest parents and I definitely have these traits myself [thanks to them], but I'm also different from them in other ways. I think him being bothered by her ways is an indication that he's not like her. His mom obviously has some unresolved trauma, hence he should practice empathy with her. I wonder if he or anyone has ever sat her down to hear her story. I'm also concerned that he says he might not see her for years.

Your landlord is not only toxic but physically and verbally abusive. One must be a beast to be beating and swearing at a child. Can you report the woman to someone now? Why did the girl's useless father abandon her there? What about her mother? Please report your landlord to someone. There's no reason why a 14-year old should be in this abusive situation.

The landlord's daughter is definitely like her mother. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, as the saying goes. But I hope your talk with her can change her a bit.

If she's almost 80, there's nothing you can do to change her. Just show her love and care as best as you can.

FamilyRe: Wife Catches Her Husband With Side Chick by TheWinterBird(m):
If your husband is cheating, you've no business with the sidekick but your husband. It's nobody's fault you married a man-ho. That said, there're women who knowingly chase after married men and they're just as pathetic as these men who step outside of their marriage. Nonetheless, she should still hold the husband whom she exchanged vows with accountable. If he's a prolific cheater, will she confront every woman he cheats with?

That means you've tried to cheat on your wife on those occasions then - for you to have had such dreams. Sorry oga, it's only your wife from now until eternity. Kudos to her cultural background for putting this in place. You will be faithful to your wife by fire by force. 😁😁😁

At no point in time should you stop providing for your children or performing your duties as their Father. Don't use you and your ex-wife's miscommunication wahala as an excuse to avoid your responsibilities.

I can't imagine how she felt in those final, frightening moments and how much agony she must've been due to her being stabbled. How horrible. I pray she gets her justice.
