She wrote;"With all the hungry Innocent children who are suffering all around, are we still against abortion? Isn't abortion better than life long suffering? They never asked to be born into all this hardship. If your own future is not sure why bring an innocent person to life
You are not discipline enough to use condom so in your selfishness you get your wife pregnant with the 5th child no house no tangible source of income. Bringing that child into the world should be a crime. If I'm that child I'll never forgive you
You will now hear things like "oh my sweet mother suffered for me. The hustle is for Mama. Her sacrifices made me who I am today. She went hungry so I can eat"... I don't understand. She no see say food no dey before she born you? She is responsible for you! fam! they owe you!!
Next thing the woman will start struggling in front of the children to feed them and send them to school. She and selfish father begin to emotionally blackmail them and make them feel like "ohh see the struggle I'm struggling to send you to school and make you a better future"
I am against abortion, but she does have a point, try contraceptives or cheaper still condoms! Poverty breeds like rabbits.
ReplyDeleteI was at the hospital for my antenatal appointment yesterday and I met a woman who was also there for antenatals for her 9th child! To say I was shocked was an understatement. Who has 9 kids in this present world and she said she is 38 years old. I could tell she wasn't educated and she came from one of the neighbouring villages. I wonder how they cope cos from what she was saying,she couldn't afford to eat well even when the doctor told her she was "short of blood". I really pity for the children.
DeleteWishing her all the best
ReplyDeleteIt takes two to tango, a woman that can't take care of her baby should also not get pregnant.
ReplyDeleteGbam!
DeleteLadies too should not think pregnancy can tie down a man, then turn around to shout dead beat dad.
ReplyDeleteLike that 34 years old woman (Chronicler last week).
DeleteChildren belong to mothers (I can't leave my child behind for anybody or don't leave your children behind). But only fathers are blamed for their upkeep.
A father who cannot take care of his responsibilities is a useless creature estate runaway or lazy ones
DeleteI think she's angry at couples who know their struggles but will still go ahead and make babies, thereby making the innocent children experience suffer.
ReplyDeleteYes
DeleteShe made a lot of sense
ReplyDeleteI support abortion
Gifty
I understand what she trying to say, in conclusion don't bring forth children when not financially buoyant
ReplyDeleteSense still dey her post sha...
ReplyDeleteI don't like seeing children suffer even adult self at least they should have basic things like food, shelter and clothing.
Stella she is making valid points. I don't get it, couple would be finding it hard to feed children but will be birthing more. Even when thr women say no to pregnancies the man would go out to breed more. Look at portable one of the baby mama the other day was dragging him for baby food money but yesterday he was questioning another woman why she doesn't want to birth a child for him. How would you take care of all these kids from different women living in different locations. The thing is that we need to enjoy ourselves how we wish but let leave birthing kids out of this.
ReplyDeleteI see nothing wrong in what she said. Though I don't support abortion but I will advise partners to use protection if they are not buoyant to get another kid trained very well.
ReplyDeleteJust like a little child in my yard will always come to me and say, ''Uncle I never eat.'' ''Uncle do you have water'' ''Uncle my mummy is not around.''
The mother of the child is a single mom and struggling. I don't like giving the boy food so I'm not accuse should in case of any eventuality on the boy. Sometimes I do give the young mother little cash to assist her in cooking.

The fact is that,the people that really needs the information are not enlightened. They believes,its God that gives children.
ReplyDeleteTrue
DeleteRants about irresponsible PARENTS
ReplyDeleteParenthood is 360 dual responsibility today.
I totally get it. In a nutshell, it’s unfair/selfish to birth kids particularly when the parent is already in a precarious living situation. Providing for children and making sure they have a quality life can be financially demanding, and in this particular scenario, it can lead to major compromise on parent and child’s side, hence the guilt trip-from parent. I wholeheartedly agree with her 💯
ReplyDeleteMe I see reasons with her write-up. Don't birth kids you can't take care of.
ReplyDeleteShe is so right, Nigerians are so fund of breeding like rats when they know well that they are still struggling to feed and make up with basic things of life. They will be like God will provide when the child comes , yes God is a provider but God didn't send you to put yourself in a pathetic situation .What I hate most in my life is seeing children suffer, it's so heartbreaking.
ReplyDeleteI don' t support abortion, but her post makes lots of sense. Its true that children are a gift from God. But the Bible also said" wisdom is profitable to direct" in all you do apply God's wisdom.
ReplyDeleteThe answer is not abortion but contraception and women no longer breeding for liability men
ReplyDeleteThere needs to be a better mindset about children, child welfare and their wellbeing. Children in too many parts of the world are not valued, respected, or treated well. Too many children suffer needlessly. The level of sexual abuse and pedophilia on the planet is mind boggling. And there has never been any period of history where physical abuse was not rampant in the lives of children.
ReplyDeleteThis conversation needs to be had, but it is far beyond merely legalizing abortion. It’s about changing the entire mindset of how we view childhood and how we protect and care for the vulnerable and less powerful in the society.
Alot of Sense on her write -up ooo
ReplyDeleteBirth kids you can take care of ooo
School fees, feeding, clothes is not moi moi
Even Okrika self is not cheap again..
I do not support Abortion o
Use protection, do Family planning
Some times self Family plaining dey fail
So CD is the best..
Funny enough those men that cannot train kids does not like using CD
Nah their way...
When men or the male are targeted, the comments flow better.
ReplyDeleteLol
I totally support you dear. I was against abortion but after 2 kids, I'm supporting it with my full chest. It's so hard to see your child suffer because things didn't go how you planned. Working, doing business yet things aren't going well.
ReplyDeleteThis one, I'm aborting it. Yes, contraceptive fails because I used contraceptive all through and here we are. Everyone will shout " it's God that will help you" but won't be there for you. Abeg, I no want. Why me? Why us? Many people out there married for years no issue, why not them?
When the man as the head is irresponsible and lazy, any woman that ends up with that kind of a man will be ' married but single ' cos you will be playing both roles. What's essence of having a partner and you don't feel the impact.
ReplyDeleteI wonder how one will have children and neglect them. Seeing other children that are not mine suffer touches me that makes me wonder how one will have children and neglect them.
Even if you don't want to be good for your own good at least be a good father to your children.
