  1. I set boundaries for the parents to protect the peace in my home and maintain my mental health. My mother through a tantrum and told me when she dies not to show up for her funeral 😕

    My Dad refused to talk to my sister because she got pregnant (on purpose) without getting married. However he still shamelessly sent her a bill of $14000 to help build a house in his village. Crazy!!!

  2. Hi Franklin, a thought just came up my mind .What do you think about creating stories for children I think it a good idea and it will go places too. Think about it …

  3. Very true. We do not think about generational wealth and delayed gratification which is why we struggle with poverty. An older white lady i work with told me her mother is very old living in the retirement community however is able to pay for it due to her retirement pension from the US government and social security. This same old lady has a home in a very desired part of town and a two bedroom apartment in the same area with a metro station right next door. My coworker’s daughter is living in the apartment while she renovated the house to make it her permanent home and she asked me if I was interested in renting the apartment after the daughter moves out. I said no lol m living cheap to buy my own house. Her son lives in another state with a big job and wife so I am sure isn’t bothered by the parents who I am sure have their own house paid for. This is lacking with black people.

  4. This is a follow up to the comment I just posted – there are some good stories that I personally know of , where the family member back home ,( was indeed being respectful & honest in handling thousands & thousands – of money being sent to him or her – by a "relative from the west" . Same country as my last post , (Sierra Leone), this particular brotha, had two thriving business here in America – back in the mid 90's …his dream was yo move back home for him and his brother to compete against the Lebanese. The brotha back home wanted to join my Sierra Leone friend in America – my friend say , no my brotha – I'm eventually coming back home – so you won't have to struggle like I have over here, I'll send money back home for you to put it into our business in Freetown. Today in 2022 those two have multiple thriving business in Sierra Leone, their children all college graduates. My friend got lucky! He had a sibling who saw the bigger picture!

  5. Got damn! brotha, you be going in! ,( I love your straight & blunt commentary).As an African American,who is fortunate enough to have befriended many West African brotha's & sista's over the past 30 years- ( I can literally write a book/ essay ,on the horrific and terrible things that their family members back home have done to them .From their brothers ,( from same mother and father … stealing their money, their father stealing their money – especially when it came to them sending money back home for the construction of their dream home. One of my Sierra Leone homies, spent years busting his ass ,( three jobs) …to save like $40, 000 to build dream home back in Freetown. His brotha ,"month – after month"- was sending fake photos of the construction project….photos of someone else's project being built in same neighborhood. In short , his brother pissed off all of the money, traveling back in forth to Conakry Guinea, on women business, flossing , stunting like he was a baller. Here's the real f#$k part- when my friend realized that he had been duped by his brother, he went in on his brother – only to have the family turn on him – taking the side of the thieving brotha. His family back home told him( that America made him greedy)- that he puts money over family. It's not like he can't get that money again! Sad shit ! My friend never bounced back from that, today ! He's 65 years old still working two jobs in America.

  6. Franklyn, you are right. I didn't even ask my dad about his finance, rather, I asked him to give me details of the money that I sent to him for a project and he said that I am rude. :))

  7. My algorithms introduced me to your page a week ago and I'm blown away with the traditions/cultures that have a tight grip on some. It's seems as if it would be a blessing to disowned by your parents. It would spare your mental health and HARD earned finances.

  8. Is it not the Bible that says the it is the responsibility to leave wealth for their kids? For me, they know my line is drawn and will not badge an inch .

  9. I wonder, how these parent, lived their lives for all these years, didn't have the strength to build a house of their own, and wants their kids to build a house for them.

  10. Thank you very much Franklin for your advice.
    It's really very educative
    Save lives 🙌 May God
    Continue to bless you with
    More & more Wisdom 🙏

  11. Not only house he should build the full nation of you uk for his father and the guy should just block his father and the entire family and focus for his life

  12. You’re absolutely right , my grandparents expected my father to send money every month to help support his parents and siblings , but once you have your own family your responsibility is your family not your parents or your siblings,

  13. My husband in the 80s, when he was in the US sent money to his elder brother to build a family home, during the process of that building they used part of the money for chieftaincy title, they built 4 bedroom face me I face you which was too small for the entire family when my husband came back he was chased out of his own house and told to go and build something befitting a man in the US😂😂😂.
    After a couple of years he died by suicide and this same brothers held his remains hostage demanding money from me to bury him.
    Well I told them to go to hell and refused to indulge them. Long story short they are all dead but my children's inheritance was taken over by their own children, what an irony.
    Now my children have the power and means to collect everything from them but I advised them against it.
    Who God bless, will always be blessed.

  14. A house at 82! Shame on the man! Sometimes I just think of the level of sense of entitlements amongst Africans not only parents but also friends, siblings, all of them. Nonsense mindsets! Anyway sha, there are Humans and there are Human beings. “Advocacy to remove Sense of Entitlement”

  15. Please can you talk about this yahoo boys/yahoo plus most of our youths have now turn to norm

    And why is it that when they kill people for this sacrifice to make wealth and are caught, they get arrested while the native doctors who sent them to bring human parts aren’t held accountable or put behind bars

  16. The other sister of mine leads me to believe that she was infected with AIDS for over 10 years, the time it took me to get around before I got a legal visa. Why ? simply because she wasn't happy about the money I sent her at the time. Later, I travel home just for myself, to find my sister in perfect health. When I brought this up in a private family conversation with my tree sisters, my surprise at their reactions was at its worst. ….even going so far as to have Mocquery behind me insulting babble about damage health caused by this misinformation
