She had several D & C or abortion. She had to settle for an old papa as her husband and then realised that she was barren. She was very rich but unhappy and old.<br /><br />To make the matter worse she is not a graduate like her siblings. I learnt a lot from her life history although she held a good professional job before she resigned to marry a very rich old man. She will continue to question why she refused to focus on her life rather than help her siblings. She should have had chidren, no matter what.

I've always argued that when are African/ Asian parents going to realise that their responsibilities cannot be passed on to their children especially 1st born, it's unfair. how is the first child meant to make something of their own lives if all resources goes back to the family.<br /><br />The worse part of it is those sacrificed for will never know the value of it so the affected party needs to make a tough but important decision, focus on oneself and immediate family, help when possible but should not be priority.<br /><br />Great post.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00317864843992921420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6009143619128599368.post-35901475658813705492012-11-23T10:37:06.179+00:002012-11-23T10:37:06.179+00:00Nice Nice one...
