babythug:
I was reading a thread on NL here yesterday . It was about someone who’s sibling had “fraudulently” got thier dad to make her next of kin in his financial affairs. The man had now died and the lady couldn’t quite g onive account of money in his account. The family wasn’t happy in summary and of course I can only imagine the bad blood in the air. One commenter admitted that she had convinced her dad to make her additional signatory to his account without her siblings knowledge and so on. I shudder to imagine what could go wrong with that arrangement thereafter

It’s made me consider sibling rivalry as a whole - it’s origins, sign to look out for and how to avoid it.

It was really common place with the generation of our parents and one can only hope that it doesn’t continue with the oncoming generations

I’d like us to discuss and share experiences here.

Is it something you’re aware of?

Have you experienced it?

What are you doing to prevent it amongst your own offspring?

What are things we do or could do as parents taut could leave children ie offspring to become
Rivals in the future?

I wish you all a sweet weekend.

The floor is open!

Thorpido

Invite any and everyone please
Well I've never experienced this.My parents tried to raise us all as equals without any preferential treatment and to love each other as siblings.
My dad passed away and till today we don't know what is in his will because everything automatically went to our mother.

Parents have always had preferences among their children and in some cultures,a first born son gets the lion share.It creates unnecessary rivalry and you can only blame the parents for that.
It all starts with the parents.It is important that they try to show love equally irrespective of position in the family or gender.

She has to choose between her long term happiness and the society.
FamilyRe: Advise Needed On Marital Issue by thorpido(m):
reciprocal:
there are several issues of cold treatment and lack of affection. and the man doesn't agree to go for any counselling or so. He just wants the wife to swallow everything and endure without complain. even she was heart broken because she had confronted her husband abt this issue and he labelled her a nag and left the house for two days now. so she has to confide in me to encourage her. The matter is confusing and frustrating. I hv told her to endure anyways
No,she doesn't have to@bolded.
If he wouldn't accept counselling and won't change, then she should involve family members.If there is no solution from there,then she should re-evalute the marriage.
People fall out of love and when that happens, it just might be time to move on.

Pure evil.I hope the abuser gets severely punished.
One has to use tact in dealing with an abuser.You don't tell him you want a divorce,you simply disappear and let a lawyer serve him a notice.

What do you mean by 'seems am getting attracted to her'?

Stop her from showing up in your apartment. If you can't tell her directly,just come back home late for the next 1 week.
Stop entertaining her!

FamilyRe: Woman Just Put To Birth To Quadruplets by thorpido(m): 11:17am On Mar 26, 2019
She or her husband should just go on permanent family planning
FamilyRe: es by thorpido(m): 8:44am On Mar 15, 2019
You should confront her about it.Doesn't your wife work? She seems like she has a lot of free time.

It is always important to know a lady's lifestyle,minset,character and type of friends she keeps before marrying her.Women rarely change.


By the way,why do you use Postinor as your family planning method?Why don't you go for something more long-term?

Omoluabi16:
Oga do you think it's easy? Even the great prophets complained. Moses, Elijah, Hezekiah and so on. When a virgin struggles to conceive, and a woman with several abortions have kids then the human nature comes. We are humans after all, and God understands.
I never said it was easy.The prophets indeed complained but remember they were men of the flesh and they had not received the greater promise of God which is the recreated being and the indwelling of the Spirit.Moreover,the Bibles says the Scriptures were given to us for our learning,to learn from them,not just copy them.

By the way,my wife and I too had years of waiting
