A Nigerian man and father of four beautiful children shares his story online, using it as a lesson for couples who are currently unable to conceive a child of their own.

The father, Arinze Uzoagu advised couples to love and support each other during their difficult period instead of blaming the lack of children on either party.

He explained that he and his wife, Chinaza had tried for several years to bear a child but were unsuccessful. It wasn’t until 6 years later in 2022, that they were finally welcomed quadruplets.

In his words;

“Just like parenting, the infertility journey is a team work,

In football, when a player is sent off during a match. The rest of the team finds a way to cover the gap left by the missing player.

Support your partner during that rough period of childlessness, show love to each other, encourage each other.

Like my father will always say or joke ‘the only thing without a metakwality is death’. 

Infertility or lack of children is just a phase….a passing phase that has an end.

The end is that in one way or the other, your own children will surround your table. Just Believe.”

A Nigerian doctor calls people who only mourn the passing of others, but never celebrate them when they were alive “Witches”.

The doctor, Obianma Onya criticized such behaviour, calling it malicious in nature, emphasizing that people who do such hypocrites.

He urged people to let go of old traditions and instead learn to celebrate people while they are still alive and well.

His post read;

“I need to call out a crazy tradition in our clime where we ignore one another (don’t acknowledge accomplishments, needs, requests) while we’re alive but once someone’s obituary is announced, we gather like WITCHES to “mourn” or (jubilate). We even take selfies while smiling during the funeral and demand for food and drinks,” she wrote on Friday.

This should stop. I call it the highest level of hypocrisy and wickedness ever.

Your relationship with the deceased while alive should be directly proportional to your show of despair when the person is no more. If I never celebrated you, I won’t mourn you. Moreover, funerals are supposed to be solemn events and not some jamboree.”

A video has recently surfaced of two mothers wrestling each other in a ball pit while surrounded by children and other parents.

The video which has now gone viral, captured the shocking display of lack of awareness and etiquette from the two mothers, who despite knowing they were in a public area decided to go at each other.

The shocking scene took place in China at a children’s play center. The exact cause of the fight is unknown, but the events that happened after were well documented in the video.

They started by hitting and kicking each other, with one even pulling the hair of the other. Then, they proceeded into the ball pit after one pushed the other in and followed her to land more blows.

The other parents watching the scene were torn between scrambling to get their children out of the ball pit and away from the fight and trying to separate the two women.

Those who did try to stop the fight were unsuccessful as even when both ladies landed on the floor they would not stop trying to tear into each other.

People who witnessed the whole fight go down had described it as very entertaining, with one person describing it as “More entertaining than WWE and MMA”.
