38 Years Old, 40k Salary, 5 Children Living In One Room by ConfusePoint: 4:20pm On Jul 20, 2023 |
Ranting. Ranting. Ranting. I have decided to rant out my predicaments on this forum today. What is the way out of poverty for me? One inlaw is even living with us, making it 8 in number, all in one room. This thing don come big pass me. I know most of you here would blame me for impregnating a woman to give birth to that number of children but then, life is life. It happens like that sometimes. They say a poor man's prayer is "e go better" but instead of things to get better in Nigeria, everyday things get worse. Truth is, except I drive myself out of this mess to a better life for me and my children, this poverty that is so stricken will likely be extended to my children, which I really don't want. No two ways about it except ... But like a car without tyres, can it move even if it has fuel? Definitely no. For 4 days now, I sleep outside in an abandoned car because of financial war at home. I can't go back home and I even feel like never to go back there but should I abandon them like that and run away? To where? When I went to the market the other day with 5k to buy food items for the house, I was crying and talking to myself on my way back because I came back with almost nothing. Nigeria have succeed to plug life out of poor Nigerians. The poor cannot breathe again. Let's die and go. Advice: never give birth when you are not financially strong. Unfortunately, I've learned my lesson the hard way. Life happens. How do I help this family better than I am trying? Wishing you the best in all you do. 254 Likes 28 Shares |

ConfusePoint: i dont know why youre lamenting. far as i am concerned what youre going through is good for you. what are you doing with such amount of children? you didnt think of economy? you didnt do family planning because you prioritized sexual pleasure and being a sharpshooter instead of living within your means. na you sabi. 253 Likes 15 Shares |

I know for sure this can never be true. but if its true, but lets join you to lament. you are the cause we have miscrants in the society. children whose parents are no taking care of them and at that the end sort to robbery and thugery for survival causing nuisance in the society because their parents neglected them. Gone are the days that people will say na God dey give children, uncontrolled sexual appetite gives birth to children when not done properly (protection, family planning) . don't bring children you can not take care of into this world, especially here Nigeria. 225 Likes 29 Shares |

You are earning low, but your reproduction of living things is high. Imagine, 5kids. Your excuse; 'Children are gifts from God.' You will continue to rant if you don't control your reproductive organ. 214 Likes 19 Shares |

You need to stop reproduction, do family planning with your wife. Put your children in public schools and you monitor their studies, check their books from time to time educate them of good behavior and the kind of friends they should have. Your wife has to be working so that she can support you in the house and no relative should be allowed to live with you for now, they can go elsewhere. When you want to buy food, buy in bulk when you get to market you will see other people contributing money together to buy in bag and share, this will also save you money and look for better job. It shall be well with you and your family. 445 Likes 46 Shares |

I have zero pity for the likes of you. In fact, even if I had the means to assist, I will NEVER help people like you. Do u know why? I will tell you. It's because some of you have decided not to have sense. Do you think those that gave birth to a child because that's the number they can afford to cater for are fools? I don't know how some of you reason. The hardship you were facing wasn't enough, you choose to drag innocent kids into it. Now, you're running away from your responsibilities. I will tell you the same thing that I always say to 'irresponsible parents'. If you can't train your kids, go and sell them. There will be willing buyers who will help you lessen the burden. 79 Likes 16 Shares |

We have said this time and time again. Do not give birth to children you cannot take care of. Nigerians make it seem as if youβre impotent if you have 1 or two kids. Thank God the upcoming generation have learnt from their elders. We will no longer be seeing situations like this in 20 years. 64 Likes 9 Shares |

At this time, your focus is how to leverage public resources for the benefit of your children. They should go to public schools and you and their mom should help them study in the evenings. As much as you can, buy food in bulk, lead by example, be contented so that you can teach them contentment. ConfusePoint: Can your farm allow you buy produce in bulk? Can they allow you trade their products or find buyers and get commission? 37 Likes 4 Shares |
