Will You Be Happy About This As A Man. by kingmorgan(m): 10:51pm On Dec 20, 2014
Please i need sincere answers, will you be happy when your wife cousin who live very far from your family and does not know how you live in the house always want to send your child used cloths used by her own children, and you are very comfortable, but each time you tell your wife it is not a good things, she complain it is nothing, because her cousin husband got a job for her brother and is also comfortable as you. I see this a let down because i can afford to buy cloths for my daughter and will soon move to my own House after 2years in Marriage, i dont know why her cousin does this things but i feel it is not right. She can get a new cloths for my daughter i am not against that or maybe she bought a new cloths for her own kids and does not size them, then i can take that, but sending used cloths from PH to Lagos please someone should advice me on this. Please note this is not Pride but i feel you need to know the financials status of someone before giving out such things as used cloths.

Her direct sister i dont see anything bad, If she was my wife sister which i know my wife is close to her sister, i dont see anything wrong in that, she can give maybe when she come for holiday, kids can wear each other cloths as sisters, but cousins who stay very far and i have not even met only on my wedding years ago, was the first time i saw her. And buying Okirika (Used Cloths) from market i dont also see it as bad, but cloths already used by her own children, i am just so confused.

Please if you are not married or experienced dont come here and say rubbish, we are talking about family issues here single ladies or guys should keep off, when you get to your turn, you will have your own experiences to share, so please do not criticizes people with nothing on your HEAD. RESPECT YOURSELVES.

It shows you LACK HUMILITY!
This is the SADDEST thing I have read all day to make me regret logging on to NL. angry

Not everything should be seen as a 'curse' you know?
You need to learn to be HUMBLE AND GRACIOUS!

It is the thought that matters. . . THE BLESSINGS OF SUCCESS can only be measured with HUMILITY!

Go and learn that! kiss

She can get a new cloths for my daughter i am not against that or maybe she bought a new cloths for her own kids and does not seize size them, then i can take that, but sending used cloths from PH to Lagos please someone should advice me on this.

My brother I feel you jare, each family to its own choices. Sit your wife down and talk her,let her know how you feel. If she doesn't listen please call your wife cousin and tell her politely or in a stylish way. You can tell her to hold on with the clothes for now that your kids all have enough,you even given out some of them to the less privileged.

If she is smart enough,she should read the hand writing on the wall. I personally pay much attention to tiny details and body signs when dealing with people.

If after that she refused and still send used clothes to your kids then please by all means call her and be blunt. Gaskia.

Like I said earlier,to each family its own. A man's meat is another man,s poison.

Just try n udastand dat its normal in some family 2 pass cloth down frm senior 2 junior and oda xtended member of d family most especially if dey dnt av any oda kid it wil size. But if u r nt comfortable wit it, try 2 xplain 2 ur wife dat u jst dnt knw y ur kids will b avin clothes in surplus wia dia r kids naked on d street. Wen d nxt set arrives, straight 2 homeless shelter.

But I 4 1 dnt c anytin rng in it as far as she doesnt treat u n ur family as charity cases.

She may be trying to help out,not knowing your status has improved greatly..

Send some expensive gift back to her to see that you aren't doing bad too.

If she's on social media,abeg,always bombard her with picture of how you are faring too.

Used clothes,to me its bad..

different families, different dynamics.

let your wife know you do not want her cousins or relatives sending things to your kids.

perhaps there's more to the issue than you are letting on.
Re: Will You Be Happy About This As A Man. by Nobody: 5:50am On Dec 21, 2014
Your wife who's in a better position to tell them doesn't see anything wrong with that hence may be difficult to stop..
Once she sends it, just take it to the less privileged/motherless babies or stylishly tell her to stop.. I understand how you feel but don't pick a fight over that because that may be their family trend....

Re: Will You Be Happy About This As A Man. by Nobody: 10:19am On Dec 21, 2014
My mum had a cousin who was fond of doing that too, my dad told her that when her demands become unbearable don't come and report her to me because i will ignore you.

My mum being a miss goody two shoes she kept helping her until she was even asking my mum to buy her plane tickets to go shopping and her daughter was even expecting allowance from my mum.

The day she was fed up with this woman's demands she called her and told her to grow the hell up and living like the world owes her hand-outs cheesy

If you keep treating a grown woman like a child she will keep acting like one. Its not a matter of wanting to give her stuff, but she needs to learn to have kids she can afford to take care of. Trust me the demands will keep going higher and higher as time goes by.

Some people need to be told where to get off the bus before they become a parasite.

Op, your problem is pride. You feel let down by an act that was done with good intent. If You don't like the clothes , there are some less priviledged people around that Will appreciate It.
