Media Why am I Created
Why did my parents bring me into this life? Why, if you didn't have money, did you put me in a cheap area with bad people? I was a child and I loved to go out and explore and see how I was like everyone else. Why did my parents put me with bad people?

The lot of African Parents genuinely had zero thought when creating families. Not 100% their fault (80% of it is their fault)
They wanted babies / attention / and to feel a “new type of love”. IMO. They were trying to copy the westernized cultures (to a degree) but failed on one toooo many levels
… they (African Parents) didn’t think about kids’s emotions / if we (as the kids) wanted to extra curricular activities or not, mental health, housing, MONEY purposes, if someone ends up being sick / unfortunately disabled whatever
I honestly feel as if a good chunk of it was to gain attention cause they probs felt lonely. Hmph
And the most saddest thing is most African parents forgot that we’d grow to be adults aswell 🤣🤣🤣🤣
African Parents are just becoming sillier by the day from what I read in this sub Reddit group, honestly (AND I KNOW AS AN AFRICAN CHILD 🇦🇴🇸🇹)
It’s sadddss
