Let's talk about this trending issue.
In my church last Sunday. My group leader was soliciting for help for a woman whose son had Down Syndrome.
The story was that her husband moved out of the house and asked the wife to take the child to the man she had him for because they don't have 'imbecile' in
their family.
We felt for her especially those of us that read about these things and the causes. We hear stories of fathers denying their children because of conditions like Autism, Albinism,etc. This is not right at all, the trend has to stop, how do
we go about it? It's so annoying.

It is well
ReplyDeleteUpon all what mama tee wrote,it is well is something you could type.Shio o.
DeleteI have a friends whose handsome boy has ADHD, my heart goes out to her as I see her struggle to give him the best especially been a single mother. I wish we had alot of support groups schools, centers that would encourage, educate and strengthen the parents and this children.
ReplyDeleteIf you have a special child, stay strong, they will make you proud
Is Albinism considered as a special need or ailment? It's just so sad that some men are just inconsiderate, they leave the care of a special need child to the mother alone.look at the case of Jodie, the guy even has the gut to flaunt his new bride on social media while,she alone take all the burden and emotional rollercoaster that come with caring for such children. It's so appalling.
ReplyDeleteThat Jodies matter pained me no be small.
DeleteAlbinism is neither a special needs nor ailment. It is rather genetic (reccessive) and discriminating a child with albinism just doesn't make any sense. It's only illiterates who would do such a thing. However, caring for an actual special needs kid is not an easy task and it requires understanding, care and love among the entire family not just the parents
DeleteI have a student is an albino and I so much love her skin tone,so flawless and radiating,her mum so much takes good care of her skin that there are some if she put on pink or brown you'll so fall in love with albinos
DeleteHaving a special needs child is not easy for them in this country. The worst is the stigma. I had a friend that had a special needs brother. All of us as kids were scared of the boy and just ran away when we saw him. We didn't know any better.
ReplyDeleteThey also don't have the schools easily available to these kids. The few schools are very expensive and some need round the clock care. Abroad atleast Government helps such kids with carers and put them on disability to help the parents.
Its a challenging thing, hence the rate of divorce amongst the parents are high. I really admire the strong women that raise these kids and give them undiluted love. The least we can do is also show such kids and their parents some love and support.
To think I was discussing this issue with my aunt yesterday using Jodie and That yeye actor Mike as case study..Some men are just wicked and educated for nothing,even otedola didn't abandon his son cause he knows better
DeleteGrowing up..people often run away from albinos..but the fact is that they didn't choose to come in that colour. My friends brothers fiance was rejected by my friends family cos her father is an albino. What a myopic way of thinking. They said she would born albino for them that is hereditary
ReplyDeleteWhat's the cause?
ReplyDeleteI think attention should be given to children with special needs. Enough of malaria, HIV, and feeding the poor. These children needs love and support. The need total acceptance.
ReplyDeleteI pray I don't have a child with any defect. This my child now, My husband is saying she is so hairy and that they are not hairy in their family. He said I am not hairy too. I just looked at him with bad eye and he stopped there
ReplyDeleteRespectfully, you married a dunce.
DeleteYou should be more worried about the defects in your husband's brain to stylish insinuate that you slept outside the marriage and the baby is not his.
😂😂😂😂
DeleteI know how that feels, because I hv experienced it first hand, but in all things I give thanks
