Went through this I was a 3.7 GPA college student but I was forced to marry early with two kids now struggling to finish my degree
You have to be a Spiritual being and know Thy Self…24hrs 7 days a week don't allow ppl to come with stories that don't add up!
It happened to me and my siblings too and we are from Senegal. So I agree it is African culture.
So it isnt just me.
MUHAHAHAHABABAABABAVABAHAAHAHAHAHAHQHQHQ
Okay. I understand the rules of the game now. Lets play >:)
Honestly I don't believe Ancient Africans behaved like this. I believe its yet another tactic learned from Foreign contact
This is a post colonial post slavery culture – sadly as Africans we were not like this before – post colonial
Glad I found this. Going through something quite similar! The "you'll be cursed" line is one I've gotten times out of mind. They either tell you you'll be cursed or even worse, they'll say "you're cursing yourself and your descendants" by doing whatever it is you're doing. It's just very sophisticated and dangerous gaslighting.
Most African parents are immoral trash and it is true, they view their children as their properties. The only way is not to talk to them and ignore them and if they try to disrespect you, you should rebel at them. I was born in Italy by Ivorian parents, so I can relate to that. They are very arrogant, ego centric, and ignorant, and they don’t want to hear the truth. Thank you, I appreciate your content
Same thing happens in the Caribbean!! Omg!! YOU ARE ENSLAVED TO YOUR FAMILY!!!
As an Ethiopian I agree ! It’s a cultural thing and applies to the whole of Africa . A little late to this but this video is a GEM !
And it’ll be some dusty Yoruba Nigerian NOT taking care of his children to turn around and expect something from the very child he neglected to provide for or raise. The nerve.
A lot of the people who are here defending parents abusing their children are the ones who are in denial of their own experiences and are projecting to others for fear of accepting the truth. I truely feel for them. Many African parents abuse their parental privilege. It is not right. Many African parents verbally and physically abuse their children for fear of an outcome that is yet to happen which most likely will create the very outcome they fear ( crazy how that works). I saw on the news a Nigerian woman beat a 5 year old and she died the next day all because the poor girl urinated or dedicated on herself at 5 years old. Her excuse was she said she felt the girl wasn’t meant to be doing that at age 5. At age five even younger they correct a child with physical abuse. To the folks here who think that it’s disrespectful to “challenge” your parents. Do you think that baby girl deserved that.
Spot on men. I am literally about to loose my mind
If as an African diasporan , all we have to say of our culture is so negative, in a world that already looks down on us, there’s not much hope…. Good job though, I guess some valid points .
Everything that woman said is chef's kiss. Beautifully articulated.
Be free don’t disrespect your parents but when you’re grown they can’t tell me shit
IT IS CULTURAL. I got shut up so much as a child that when I was adult and my father always says "if you are having concerns in your life, come to me lets talk"
I never did. My conversations was the mundane. Because you don't know when you will say something that angers him and he says you are RUDE.
The Africa on mindset is not bad but it sets us back all the time.
Parental abuse is all the time no wonder Africa is where it is,
No development no improvement.
Children are humans not properties and I hope that African Parents will adapt to the modern World,
Wow, I am dealing with my mom about this. She currently is giving me silent treatment
My parents are Africans and you are disrespecting them talk your family
Maybe you must be taking about the African house you came out from
You people need to stop generalizing speak about your experience.
So how does that make you a possession
I'm Nigerian and currently going through the same issues with my parents
I'm was known as the destructi e child and now I'm apparently a problem child
Our subconscious control our 99% of reality and they stole that from us when we were so young..they program it with lies and their own reality-based of a perfect life while that doesn't exist In the universe…..
The reason they beat a very young kid is to deny he/her the abilities from learning. from their own mistakes and then you grow up with fears,anxiety, depression and lack of mimitation!
Thanks u I need to be on ur show and tell you my story
This happens in the black community in America as well.
It is natural that those whom have lived before you and longer than you to have more wisdom as wisdom is next to experience which they have more than you the child. It has nothing to do with smartness which is intelligence. You are looking at the entire culture from the angle of irresponsible/miserable parents which is very wrong and biased. Of course your parents can be wrong but that doesn't mean you should make them your mates, you can simply reveal to them politely and they would accept but if they don't and they keep up with the assault/insult, then they are the bad parents and sometimes it could be their psychology at the moment which we must understand. If you go with the culture of trying to make your parents the students no matter the situation, not honouring or respecting them, then you are creating your downfall most evidently.
Most Parents are over protected and some kids don't accept that. Married men and women that are children to older parents are respected in their own way but the other half are (girl) very rude in front of in-laws but when the men give it back then they accusing in-laws of not saying a word. Couple some how think they study and know each other more their parents. Remember the kids of whom you are finish!
That is how America people loose their identity. As Afrikan people we accept that the elders are right.
Age doesn't equal wisdom, but that's the way to bet. Is like for someone to say life battle's always go to the strongest or fastest, sometimes the math doesn't support it 😂😂
Omg what a woman!
She’s so awesome and I think she has seen it all. She said it all . Thank y’all for giving us all these amazing contents 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Is this Wairish?
YOUNG AND DUMB AND DISRESPECTFUL. STOP LISTENING TO EVERYONE.
Talk about FGM. Parent cutting the girls in secret. IN THE DIASPORA
they dont care about consequences. They dont want to hear it.
My mothers side of the family doesn't want me because of the smear campaign, she has managed to make my brother and I to not get along. I have a 1 year old, she once said your child will beat u, I couldn't believe it. That is when I realize I do not want my child near her because she will turn my child against me, I've cut her out of my life . I have a good man. During my childhood there were people who would try to be friends with her and cut her out we kept loosing people, she cannot see she is the problem. I was her therapist from age 7 I had to listen to adult staff. She will tell me how people were treating her and j would take this personal I was a child. Last words I said to my brother who was supporting her, she has u to deal with im out
I wish walrish had a channel
I agree my friend same in the Caribbean
Great points and the behavior is mentally and emotionally crippling to so many. Sadly the African environment enables this behavior and some of these parents have taken advantage of their kids in the name of tradition. Thank God my parents were progressive and too proud to beg. What really is the best advice to offer those with parents that have fixed and exploitative mindsets. It sounds like hell on earth dealing with such people, clearly there is zero love just exploitation.
This is a beautiful topic!
She sounds very much like our famous warish who spoke so intelligently last time about life in the diaspora and her response on your Chanel went viral
She never disappoint us bang on no sugar coating
She is so spot on.. I’m Black American and living in NYC. I’ve dated a few African Men and one thing I’ve noticed is that they often look very good on paper but when it came
to going below the surface I could tell they suffered some sort of deep psychological abuse as children and as adult men often display the symptoms of that abuse. A few times they would even tell me stories about how they grew up and how they were or weren’t regarded by their parents. Also I think this mentality is part of the reason many of our ancestors were sold and traded into slavery (on the continent as well as abroad)
La Jolie’s photo looks just like a porthole. 🛩 The flight attendant will reprimand her ooo… 😄
