For the sake of your children, live and don’t get abused.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful mother’s in Ghana and beyound.
In the past three weeks, I have read more than three articles on women who have either been beaten, killed or been abused in one form or the other. As I read I always get to the point where it is established that these women stayed and endured the pain and abuse because of their children.
I kept asking my self why will a woman continue to stay and be abused by a man and so far none of the mothers I have spoken to have given me a different answer… it has always been the children.
Women go through alot just to keep their children safe and happy. I know mothers will rather die than see their children die. But for how long will you stay and get abused because of your fear of your child growing up without a dad or a broken home?
You stay to get abused and sometimes even get killed because of your child(ren), so what happens when you get killed, murdered, burnt in the process. Why subject yourself to all these in the name of protecting your children.
Ok, let me tell you something. Do you know that your child learn seeing you go through all you go through because of him of her
1. If the child is a He, all he gets to understand is that it’s ok to beat up a woman, she will always stay.
2. Mother will never leave daddy no matter how he beats her
3. It is ok to abuse women.
If she is a girl, you would have messed her future up because it will take the grace of God for her to understand that
1. It’s not okay for a man to beat a woman
2. A woman must stay put even if she is suffocating in a relationship
3. It’s ok to be beaten by her man.
4. Once she has a child for the man she must stay on and not go no where.
Is this what you want to instil in your children? Is this how you want your son and daughter to view life? Is this really how it must be?
My answer is a Big NO!!!!
Get out of that abusive marriage/relationship and stop using the children as an excuse because when they grow to understand things better they would never forgive you.
I want to use this opportunity to encourage all mothers who are enduring abusive relationships and using their kids as an excuse. You are better off as a single mother than waiting to get killed in an abusive relationship.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful mothers. The Lord continue to strengthen and bless you.
Thank you.
