A parent is mad at his son for doing poorly at school, but the son spends all his emotional energy in class worrying about his dad's constant anger and yelling, Coupled with his mother's vile and dehumanizing words thrown at him for every single mistake.
People keep expecting the best from children whose hearts are filled with wounds and bitterness from the very parents who were supposed to be their biggest fans.
Some of these children eventually live through all of that and still turn out excellent people in society, and that's when these parents would say..."That's my son, We trained Him"
Most of them don't end up so we'll though, and that's when the parents will say,.."She was a very stubborn girl, she never listened to instructions"
Responsible Parenting must be redefined.
Paying school fees and making breast milk available is not the issue here.
Many children have had to cope with their struggles by just keeping quiet and waiting till they marry as an escape from the pollution in their parents home.
I'm not talking about some spoilt, rebellious and wicked child whose foolishness deserves the constant administration of the rod, I'm talking about good, kind, godly children who have been battered and broken by growing up in an atmosphere full of strife, anger, bitterness and disrespect for their feelings.
Many ladies just want marry any man who asks Their hand in marriage, but it often leads to "From frying pan to fire experience"
Many young men are exposed to drugs and pervert addictions as a relief to the pain of their souls.
But the average parent thinks they have played no part in these negative formations because at least they gave their children food and bought Christmas cloth too.
There are young students who will never return home during holidays because they just need a break from the palpable tension that exists around their parents.
They will prefer to stay back in their hostels and starve than to experience the Torture of constant infighting at home.
Soon, they meet a very nice cyber crime friend and cultist boyfriend who at least seems to offer "peace of mind" and the rest is history
The Torture of a broken home includes listening to your father telling you how your mother was a witch and listening to your mother saying how telling you how your father was a wizard.
The real problem is that stopping any of them from saying such about someone who gave birth to you will be deemed as disrespectful, so you have to listen and become the trashcan of their toxic rants.
