If You like don't rate what you have, someone else is praying to have what you are being ungrateful about.
Social media is not real life.

Congratulations David. If you were Nigerian, you’d get other Nigerians telling you that you’re doing “cho cho cho”.

Congratulations David.
3 hours later, and as expected, it's nothing but "sugar, spice & everything nice" in the quotes and comments.
Even PIERS MORGAN, of all people, is in the comments with hearty congratulations.
If you like, do not learn how to observe & approach these issues.

See the comments and quotes.
Positive if posted by a white person.
Negative if posted by a black person. (racists and other black people who feel you posting will prevent them getting theirs)

Imagine getting into a 1hr meeting and spending the first 30 mins awkwardly teaching two Indians, one South African, and 4 people of British descent how to pronounce Edidiong or Imaobong or Oghenevwegba
I hear Nigerians in the UK are changing or shortening their names so their white colleagues can pronounce them comfortably .
Please stop doing this. Your name is part of your identity. Let them learn to pronounce it properly. Never change your name to make others comfortable.

The only thing I’ll say is It’s genuinely difficult pronouncing a name that has enunciations you are not used to.
As people who are already economically disadvantaged it’s sensible to remove any friction there is to you being hired.
But if you insist.

That broke me cause it is conditioning. That after hurting you you need to seek reassurance from the person that hurt you. That’s why we have domestic violence thriving
I just hope we can reflect on our actions as parents. I’ve been in Maraji’s position, and it’s not one of my proudest moments as a parent, I don’t want a medal for that….It doesn’t teach a child what we hope it will.
What breaks my heart is when they come close afterwards, looking for reassurance, asking for a hug, wanting to know if they’re still loved. We teach them to use kind hands, then turn our own hands into something they fear.
May God help us make better choices for our children.

That Maraji video is proof that just because you can have a child doesn’t mean you should.
But it’s okay cause she turned out just fine!

You people don’t see children as human beings because if someone slapped you or used cane on you, you’d classify it as an act of violence. But it’s children so it’s “discipline”.
That is not violence against children, gosh I hate that words don’t have meaning again.
What I don’t understand is why Maraji posted that video, I don’t get it.
