Rubbiish:

My cousin gave birth around October last year & she resumed work in December, it took that long because it was via operation. Just Less than 3 months. Her mum came around to take care of the child. I have seen women who gave birth without operation resume work less than 2 months. How much more a woman whose child is 2 years old?? Only a lazy woman will stay idle using 2 years plus old kid as smokescreen for not working. Stop posting nonsense on this forum all the time! Your posts are extremely disgusting. You can see how the op countered your post bitterly. U don't reason normal at all.

You are replying to that feminist wannabe and highly emotional somebody? You get time o. Her comments always come from an emotional place, never logical SMH. I fear for the person who is dating her, he will have to be really patient and have a stomach for rubbish.

cyndyuc:
Exactly! I resumed work when my baby was 2 months old! His wife is just being lazy. She should work!

You can say that again! I am happy to see a lady calling out that liability of a wife that most of us guys have been doing. Kudos!

And why do she don't work?If she is not satisfied with the life you offer her, send her to work.

I am married with three kids 2 years and 3 months triplets, my salary is 55k. I used to give my wife 20k, mother 10k, 5k for rainy days and 20k for myself transportation and other expenses outside my house.

My wife complained that the money was not enough I added 5k making it 25k monthly but she still demanding for more money and she has threatened to leave if I don't give her more.

I had no money to give her, my own mother was homeless staying in church and I couldn't stop giving her that 10k because she needed it. My wife used to fight me every single day and my uncle asked us to leave the family house as we were disturbing their peace and I was ready to let her go and I will be sending 25k for our triplets upkeep every month but for the sake of our kids we have settled down with 30k monthly leaving me with 15k.

So far, we have moved out of the family house, we are staying in a parlour and room house a brother from Canada gave us the place it is not permanent but it is better and we are very very grateful.

Like I said earlier my mother was staying in church, now we have a one bedroom house I have discussed with my wife for my mum to come and live with us and I will stop the 10k I was giving her and I will add it to her money making it 40k monthly, she has agreed.

Now that my mother is here with us, she started again with the 40k is not enough to feed all of us, note I don't eat breakfast, I eat lunch at work and in the evening I eat at home. She is only giving my mother food in the evening while she and my kids eat 3 Square meal a day.

I asked her why she is treating my mother so badly she said the economy is hard if she doesn't have she won't kill herself. I am sick and tired and if I have sorted things it was for the sake of our kids and now I am starting to regret. I am thinking from this month when I get my salary I will give her 30k and give my mother 10k to be cooking her own foods.

Is my decision good?

Bringing your mother to live permanently with you, your wife and kids in a one room apartment is a Bad bad idea. Your wife go definitely see you and your mama finish.

Secondly ask your wife to work... How can you give your wife 40k out of 55k monthly, no be juju be that? You nor wise?


.... In fact your Mata don pass garri

The salary is not enough for only you increase your income and let your wife find work.

U r big liar... Where did d Op said the mother in law is nt ready to take care of the children.. U r just turning it in favour of the wife bcox u r a lady...

Very wicked soul not saying the right thing....

Gbas gbos of life! . Give it to these emotional vagina people o!

yemi1504:
SMH. So children that are two years plus and are not breastfeeding can't be taken care of by the mother? I sincerely don't understand your gender and the way you think as your shame is shaming me.

You folks and your "us vs them" mentality never ceases to amaze..

I have a mother and I have nieces and nephews who need caring for. It was hard on my mum taking care of just one baby. We are not talking of just watching them but caring for them. Taking care of 3 at a time requires a whole different level of commitment and unless the mother is able-bodied, it will be a load for her to bear.

Op have been following your story since last year, truth is the money is small and you are trying your possible best.

You should put your location and the qualifications of you and your wife here so anyone can connect you.

As for your wife tell her to start something no matter how Small, you guys can try and get a grinding machine so she can use it to hustle no matter how small, she can also fry sweet potatoes or even akara in the front of the house or the junction.
She can also sell eggs too or if it's a busy area or sell food in the morning. Am just trying to suggest things that she can easily do and know her profit for the day without eating her capital and still feed the family.

She can do all these while your mum takes care of the kids for the little time that she will be away. She better think fast because those kids will be starting school soon and the economy is not smiling.

Men una mumu sha

When we keep telling you People not to get married, you'll call us broke,immature frustrated and all other sorts of nonsense.

You got married to Parasite who's Sucking you dry, draining the very life force you have. If you don't cut off that leech,she will drain you till you become a shell of your former self.

But seriously guys, lets reason it this way. The money he has been giving to his wife all these while,if he didn't get married and have children now,he would probably have used it to open a business,have investments or Get a new house or something like that. Now a woman has tied him down and It's now stopping him from progressing.

All he cares about are his wife and his children,they are all Liabilities to him. This is why men are advised to have a good job and a nice comfortable apartment first before getting married. You know why? It is because you will most likely get married to A Parasite who will Make you stagnant,it would be almost impossible for you to get past this financial struggle except you get a better job with better pay.

Men! Run away from a marriage that will stop you from Achieving greatness. Having children is not an achievement,it is normally biological for one to procreate,so there is no big deal about it. Having a wife and children when you are not financially stable,will only drag you down and make you stagnant!

And also, DON'T EVER GET MARRIED TO A BROKE LAZY WOMAN! They are Parasites whose only Objective is to latch on to you, and suck out your energy,time,resources and peace of mind.




@the bolded,A good woman? Really?

She and her children eats 3 square meals, while his mother only eats once. You call that a good woman? Wait answer this instead,would she have done same to her own Mother?

You nailed it bro .. you too get sense . You just said my mind . Literally

dannex4adx:


If it was to be your mom, will you tell her to endure?

That is what a jobless son should do to his mother, when she ought to have taught her son to zip up when he is jobless, she didn't. He went to bring troubles now, let all of them face the consequences

Dont ever attempt marring when you don't have a solid financial backup. You will regret it.

aanuoluwami14:
With the current situation in Nigeria, even with management, #50k can't be enough for all of you including your mom. Your wife might be so fed up with the triplets consumption, a woman who will take good care of triplets should be very well fed, it's not a easy task at all. Endure with her, let your mother endure too, pray for more income, there will no more fight again.

Sorry i might ve to disagree with you. With what the OP has narrated even of the feeding allowance is increased, she will still act same way. She is simply mean. Thats the truth. Why not leave the kids with his mother while she gets a job to also assist in the income ? Afterall they ll need savings for a new apartment since where they are is only temporary A wicked woman is a wicked woman no matter the circumstance.. it is seen in little things. No excuse pls cos no amount will ever be enough

INFACT YOU ARE SO MEAN AND WICKED TO SAY THAT THE OPS MUM TO REMAIN ON ONE MEAL A DAY..

zedegit:


Let an aged mother endure 1 square meal a day?

You are very wicked.

You are foolish also, That is what a jobless son should do to his mother, when she ought to have taught her son to zip up when he is jobless, she didn't. He went to bring troubles now, let all of them face the consequences

How ur Mom take survive with one time meal a day

I think it requires wisdom and a whole lot of patience and understanding....


That money is definitely not enough, wife is stressed, triplets are God's blessings, mother is a blessing....

Best you let your mother help with the kids and let your wife add any small business or job.

Imagine is she sells food, she will sell for resale and for the house consumption....

The only thing is EVERYBODY has to pull their weight. House chores are no joke, cleaning cooking laundry. Everybody has to pull their weight.

And you wonder why in the future they easily fall sick? 6 months is recommended, 1 year is fair. The aim of breastfeeding is to build their immunity while they are young. That purpose is defeated after the age of 1 year imo.

I married her against my wish her mother forced me to marry her because of the pregnancy. I blamed myself sha maybe if I have had use condoms I wouldn't have been in this miserable marriage.

After you married her, you should have stayed away from unprotected sex at least till you get a good job.

55k isn’t even enough for a bachelor let alone a couple with 4 children and an adult to feed.
Diapers and baby’s food is very costly. Your wife is really trying by managing the money for a month.

Increase your search for a better paying job. Look for a part time home lessons job to augment your income

Hei slay queen

Don't let my Nairaland jokes confused you. As far as marriage is concerned, you are still a kid to me.

Why because you are talking to a father of 15,12,10 and 7 years old beautiful kids. i have been married for 20 years now and my wife nearly bring that stupid attitude,but i deal with her in a language that she will understand.

Women can only mess with weak and broke ass men, but not people like me who so many women are dying to have.

As far as i know, women are the most confused people on earth

Just Bleep off

You obviously aren’t matured enough to have a conversation with me. If you think you have to use foul languages on people before you can air your opinion, then you are still a kid irrespective of your age.
