Hi Stella. This is an update to this CHRONICLE
So my SIL went on ahead to pay the fees without my knowledge. She just sent receipt to my husband who sent it to me. My husband was excited telling me how I should be happy that our son is mixing with posh children. I just kept quiet.
After the first day of dropping him in school, he came home and started complaining how he couldn't make it to work on time because he had to go all the way across town to drop our son and his boss was shouting at him and embarrassing him because he missed a very important meeting. I just looked at him and turned my face.
The following week he started lamenting to me on the cost of transportation and how it's only God that has been providing for him. What is my own? Didn't I highlight all these to him? Another day he called me that he's caught up at work and can't go all the way across town, that can I make it? Me that my office is far normally. Let me explain.
There's a direct bus from my office junction to my house junction (that's why our initial school plan was better) but this school he put our son means I'd have to enter transport to another part of town then drop and take another transport before I get to the school. So calling me impromptu will mean he will stay in school longer. After waiting 2hrs and I hadn't reached he just told me to go home that he has called his sister go pick him. Every single thing I said is playing out. Na siddon look I dey. Since he has deliberately carried his legs and strolled into a tight corner, I want to see the outcome. I won't talk or complain again.
He will learn the hard way...please dont stress yourself over this..
If no be say na person pikin dey involved ehn, that one he even asked you to go pick ur child, u for siddon no even try go but las las, a mother can never just fashy matter that concerns the child.
ReplyDeleteBody go tell am las las since his wife sensible advice means nothing to him
Marriage these days is becoming a hopeless competition
DeleteI beg u sister don’t talk again. Don’t say anything, infact if he tries complaining again, tell him God that that has been providing will continue to provide for you people. Don’t bother ur pretty head, with fuel at over 1k per liter, dem no dey tell man.
ReplyDeleteI just dey pity the poor child in all this una wahala.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, my heart really goes out to the poor baby, the stress he will go through in all of this is just starting! It's well with your family poster.
DeleteAswear
DeleteHonestly eeh , the stress will be too much.
DeleteWe are all here feeling pity for the child, I'm sure the poster's heart breaks every time she sees the stress her child is going through, coupled with this rainy season!
DeleteYou do well jare, don't Stress yourself poster, Let Sister in Law and hubby continue what they started..
ReplyDeleteHello iya Boys
Na prayers and praise remain,there is no need for long talk.
ReplyDeleteWhenever he complains just say God will strengthen you more,you're a good father.....nobody will tell him before he returns him to a school closer to the house.
Prayers and praise ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
DeleteLol๐ abi oo
DeleteBiko you are pregnant. Avoid anything that will stress you. For your SIL to go ahead and make payments, and then send the receipt to your husband, he gave ahead the go ahead. You highlighted these to him, he didn't see reason with you, let him do the school runs.
ReplyDeleteGave her*
DeleteHe will get used to it....... The show just started, don't just bother yourself.
ReplyDeleteMy sister do sit-down look. He has to realize the things on his own. Let him learn
ReplyDeleteMay God continue to strengthen him to do the school runs in Jesus name.
ReplyDeleteHe wants his child in a posh school, he should be ready to pay the price.
Madam you need to start lamenting about pregnancy stress everyday. Just complain o. Start your own before he starts. It’s a nice gesture from the sister but Haba Oga! Who posh school eep? The “rich kids” will make your son will feel inferior that he will have to be lying to meet up. Good luck with this. Take care of yourself thoroughly ❤️
ReplyDeleteKaren
Yes oh. Use style to be highlighting your pregnancy symptoms so that he knows you’re also going through stress. Operate more in your feminine energy and baby girl side. You both are a team and this should have been your joint decision. I hate meddling family members-they may have good intentions but is this sustainable???
DeleteHe may change your house
ReplyDeleteMove closer to your son's school and make you the burden bearer of how you get to work
May his mind not reach that side abeg
So the reason why your hubby agreed to that arrangement was because your kid would be mixing with posh kids. Pls forgive me, that is a retarded way of reasoning. Anyway, he will soon learn some hard lesson.
ReplyDeletePosh school ko
ReplyDeleteGood for him, you are pregnant so please take care of yourself and let him finish what he started
ReplyDeleteAwoof dey run belle. I just pity the poor boy in the midst of the siblings shenanigans. ๐๐๐
ReplyDeleteI remember your first chronicle. Your husband was insistent, probably only looking at the money he would save if his sister paid the school fees instead of using wisdom in the matter. 5+5 will have the same answer no matter the school a child attends, and at your son’s young age it does not matter where the early years education happens. He shouted you down when you tried to speak wisdom into the situation and his boss shouted him down publicly because of the outcome of his insistence. Look at life.
ReplyDeleteCan he not tell his sister the situation is unrealistic and to either get a refund for any remaining amounts or not to pay for the second term, depending on how she paid the fees. Relocate your child to the originally planned school. You are adults in charge of your own family life and do not need to explain anything to anyone about your choices. You have tried it, you both know that it is unsustainable so freaking speak up and say NO to another term of the madness and make realistic choices for your family and life.
Dear sis pls just siddon one corner dey look like a spectator. Him eyes go soon clear.
ReplyDeleteIt's not even up to a full term he's complaining, that's the price of his decision.
ReplyDeleteTake care of yourself and let him continue may be he will get use to it
It's just your child i pity in all of this..poor boy will be stressed out.
ReplyDeletePlease don't play strong wife at all, start singing about how pregnancy is taking a toll on you, in shut turn it to everyday song. Don't form Jakician that you have strength to multitask O,
ReplyDeleteOnyinye ekwensu!

DeleteYour child can put up with your SIL and only returns home during weekends.
ReplyDeleteDidn't they consider the distance this child has to commute everyday day to school? I just pity the child.
