And when things are hard and you can't feed your own kids what do you do. Tell us

LegallyBlunt:
You persevere. But because things are hard, people get crazy thoughts. That's why it's best to help them stay positive than criticize or judge them like you just did.

Please I need you people's advice and I want to be as brief and straight to the point.

My sister gave birth to 2 children under circumstances I'm not to explain here. She took ill and passed away last month.

Since we were just two of us, (our parents are late) the responsibility of taking care of this little kids of 8 and 5 has fallen on me.

God knows I love these kids and would take them as my own but I don't have a job and struggling seriously to survive. It's killing since they became my full responsibility. I was thinking any of the extended family member or a good person would come up to take them.

House rent has expired and problems everywhere.

Since no where else to take them to, I'm considering taking them to the orphanage. It's not my fault please. If I have the means, i would keep them and take very good care of them as they are very dear to me.

Like i said, i love this two boys and would take them as mine, providing for them now as it should, is the challenge.

Their presence is even affecting the small thing I am doing, especially by way of paying attention to them.

Please advise me on what to do.

It is better to take them to an orphanage than to abandon them on the streets somewhere.

Kobojunkiee:
Would you be happier if the kids were to become homeless and have to roam the streets day and night in search of food and a place to sleep? Would you rather they slept in the open and as prey to all sorts of predators out there?

Loveabove:


I have answered those questions up there. I don't see how my age and occupation is important to this.

Chi133:





Ask yourself if it were to be your own children will you take them there?

komzy589:

Unfortunately, no sane person will ever do that to their own kids.

Wodu89:
Your head and motive is not right. You're thinking if the costs of the parenting. What about the returns when they mature.

Your love and loyalty is ingenuine. The kids are not your sister's kids but yours. You're not doing right honestly. You're thinking about what it would cost you not the blessings it can come along with or that they have no one, you're only thinking of not loosing pennies. May God forgive you. By your mentality you have failed Heaven

If places were switched or if they are your kids would you do the same thing.

Bro Why are you opposing other opinion na, state ur opinion and move on or has the lady in question appoint you as her lawyer or what, live and let live bro ..

RosyIsBlessed:
■ And how are you sure of their safety after been sent to orphanage and given out for adoption?

descarado:


I have been here more than a decade and oldies like me know there various formats.
Pregnancy, children, sick mum, homeless etc are what they usually base their stories on.
Some will use school fees. Nairalanders don't have time again. Before, students will volunteer to check your authenticity in your school and once it reach that level, the person will disappear

Kobojunkiee:
You are not sure of their safety but you can visit the orphanage often to keep tabs on them and even sue the business is worse comes to worse. Something you cannot do if you abandoned the children out on the streets.

GboyegaD:
You can take them to the orphanage and try to support the orphanage as much as you can. Let the management know you would appreciate they don't give them up for adoption as you are coming back to pick them once you are in a good place.

RosyIsBlessed:
■ None is better. Look for a job and care for those kids like you would have wished your sister did for you.

ordovicianonly:
Tell us that circumstances surrounding their birth if you really need a good advise . We might be able to advise from there cos those children must have one relative from their father’s side . You can’t just go & drop them in the orphanage without trying your best by looking for their father’s relatives.

Waffarianman:
This your matter get K-leg, they've been asking were is their father and father relatives you're keeping people mute. For me nothing to advise you for until you give us the full gist

Kobojunkiee:
Now you are not making any sense. Who told you OP hasn't been looking for a job all this while? Do jobs always magically come by to save the day or something? Why the irrational leaps and conclusions?

Sirqt5:
2 kids by 2 different fathers . tell d truth. was she ( rip ) promiscuous ?

Nasri100:


This isn't even the perfect reply.

RosyIsBlessed kindly suggest or provide a good job for the OP so she can take care of the kids or simply kindly help adopt them.

You people will be talking bs from the fence forgetting you are in the second poverty capital of the world.

Nonsense.

■ I think you lack understanding, it's not my fault. Look for interpreter to explain my last comment to you. Don't quote me again

Nerdnextdoor:
Explore all possible avenues for locating the children's father or any of his relatives or friends before concluding on taking the kids to an orphanage.

Babamide:
Ask yourself this? If the roles are reversed, what would your sister have done?

RosyIsBlessed:


Is this frustration?
