24 Things A Mum Teaches Her Daughter Part 2

• My daughter, you can see I still wear my
night gown , yes, because to my husband;
your father, I still want to look sexy. So, take
good care of your body, look good for your
man and don’t look like a grandma after
giving birth.
• My daughter, I’m your mother and still, I'm
not interested in you coming to me always if
anything goes wrong with your husband.
Though nowadays I see some mothers
controlling the homes of their sons and
daughters, I would only say; shame on them!
• My daughter, for you to have a peaceful
home and well-trained children, have one
voice with your husband, join him to say NO
when he’s saying NO before the kids but later
when you both are alone, you can plead with
him for a YES, if not, the
children will see a loophole to misbehave,
either to you or their father.
• My daughter, if you chose to live together
with a man that you’re yet to be married to ,
and you are complaining that he hasn't
proposed to you, oh, he already did. Whatever
he said that made you start living with him
was his proposal.
• My daughter, your generation does not see
any pride in been a virgin before marriage,
it’s a shame! Your father met me a virgin and
he brought more yams to my parents and up
till today, he’s still proud of me when we
discuss in that direction.
• My daughter, I know that no man out there
is complete, but when you are looking for
your tall, slim, fair and handsome, if he’s a
woman-beater, please, go for the short, fat,
dark and ugly that will give you the respect
you deserve as a woman.

• My daughter, know, learn and respect the
culture and lifestyle of whoever you chose to
marry . In some part of Africa, you knee down
to greet your man’s parents while in some
part outside Africa; you can even call them by
their first name and ask for a
handshake. Whatever they believe in, if you've
chosen him, believe it with him also.
• My daughter, don’t ever try to date a
married man, whether his excuse was that he
doesn't find happiness with his wife or he
would have married you if he had met you
first, if you ever try it, I curse you already.
• My daughter, when I say over 52 years of
marriage , it wasn't that I did not see any
reason to leave your father, I saw a lot of
them but I bear his faults, i forgave him to
stay married.
• My daughter, these are part of the wisdom i
have gathered over the years. and If I had
taken my time to tell you all these, and your
marriage doesn't last like that of your father
and I, then I had wished i never gave birth to
you.
