@all Parents, Hands up for you.I can see am not alone in doing what it takes to protect my daughter.
@Musevenilyric and the likes, no comments for you coz I have fear of God in my heart otherwise I cld have recommended you to hell then while you are there you can try your I don’t know law whatever on dead corpse coz if I find you doing on your own child, if given the powers I will skin alive.
@OtenoBig,I understand your predicament. This is from a mother’s point of view. When my daughter was 8months old I went through the same nightmare. I brought a woman(a widow) who is kinda relative from shags when she told me that she is being mistreated by mother in law and she needs to do something to feed her 3children,I accepted and gave her what she asked for so that we may support one another in this walk of life. I was treating her with love& respect as I do to any house help until they prove that they don’t deserve it coz am in the school of thought that says “do want you think should be done unto you” .If you treat them well, they will treat your baby well unless they are not human enough…right! Week one went on well. Week two on a Wednesday, I wasn’t feeling well so I requested to leave early at about 3pm.She didn’t expect me so when I arrived since the door was opened, I found my daughter on the floor screaming her head off. She was washed with tears till her clothes were wet and you might think she had a running nose. This good lady was lying on my safa ,not watching TV but staring at the baby as she cries .OooH My goodness. I went for my sweetheart and asked her what was happening then she was like the baby has been crying like that since morning and she was thing of calling me to let me know that the baby was sick.
When I looked at my baby’s cheeks there was a clear mark that she was pinched very well till the skin in the are came out to her that was a mere scratch. That very Sunday I had my baby’s nails cut by myself so there was no possibility that they had grown in two days.
I kept quite coz that’s how I react when angry otherwise I can kill someone. So many questions went through my mind and the main one was why would this woman react like an this yet we have not disagreed in any manner. Honestly, why should she act like an animal to my child, she would have better cut my ears with a knife instead of doing what she did to my child…..rem she is still new to our house.
Am not a hypocrite but I was forced to be one. I pretended to love her despite what she did and when she told me that she was sick, I told her we shall all go to hospital. I a story I brought the topic of HIV aids and I told her that in my house we do go for test on a yearly basis. So I ask her whether she would also want to know her status and she accepted. So she was tested for Malaria,Aids&Thyophiod which all turned positive apart from malaria.
She is the main reason why I toil in the sun>Has the thoughts of taking a eight months old cross your mind or worsestill leaving employment unfortunately am the sole provider.
I can’t just tell you the butterflies that were running in my stock mr. Musevenilyric…….just give me a break,I don’t caker whether you have PHD in law but babies belong to God ,we are only custodians and so God has entrusted us with the prime responsibility of taking care of them as much as possible and where we are not able we leave for him. Ignorance is not an excuse. I paid all her hospital bills and full months Salary and blessed her to the next Job which she got here in Nai but whenever she call me to tell me that she wants to come visit us, I can’t resist the flashback that plays in my mind. I can’t talk about it anymore
