These prompts are lovely. Let me drop mine now.
@temmylade, that one thing that adulthood slapped me with and my childhood never prepared me for is simply bills.
As a child, I thought everything worked fine for all the adults around me and so I craved to become an adult real quick. I remember adding figures to my age whenever I was asked outside by acquaintances. This was because I couldn't wait to become an adult.
But as soon I became an adult, I realized that childhood was better. I was shielded, protected and taken care of as a child. Many people have me money but now, it is by God's grace self before you see who dash you #1k.
Despite how I try to clear bills, the bills keep creeping up lie wild grass. I learnt responsibility but I wasn't prepared for the string of bills awaiting me as an adult.
This is one error I'm trying to do away with as a mom. I'm letting my child know that growing up has it's own level of a shackle called bills.
I'm inviting @ozd, @luchyl and @faithwellington to join the conversation.
Lolss... You are very much right ma, I once look at children exposed to responsibility at their teenage circle, learning one vocation or the order like they are less privileged that is why, but I never knew they are just opened up to responsibility.. you can check those people if you have any serious one out of them, they are doing well with their vocation today.. this life ehen, who no learn now no go learn again oo😄
Na true ooo
God will help this generation and upcoming one not to see their destiny moulders as their enemies.
Abi ooo
That's a huge prayer. Amen 🙏
This is simply wisdom rolled out in a funny way, and I love it. Something like "that road wey you refused to pass today, when the chips are down, you go pass am tomorrow" 💯
!BBH
By force oo.. good morning @luchyl
I dey tell you 😂😂
Life truly has a way of teaching us responsibility, whether early or late, those who started learning early are really enjoying the results now, it’s funny how what we once pitied turned out to be a blessing in disguise. This life no balance at all 😄🤣
The bills and responsibilities are so much that I just want to take a vacation away from them
Abi ooo.
But no running away at all
You get.
Patience is virtue 😂😂
Na so
Some sweet self pampered vacation inniit?
You get it
🤣🤣🤣 Honestly, nothing prepares you for the number of bills that come with adulthood, we all rushed to grow up without knowing what was waiting for us. I really love how you’re intentional about teaching your child the reality of it.
My dear, I can't but do it so that she will be prepared.
Thanks and have a great day.
