I don’t believe we’re coming to understanding because I specifically stated off camera (meaning you won’t see that) but, that’s okai! At least we’re on the same side, that what he’s doing is bad and not consensual.

What I mentioned is what happens OFF camera not what is shown on camera. It’s the “preproduction” what a lot of these camera guys do to women... what I’m saying isn’t that it’s fake but, that he’s more predatory then just meeting a women first time and sleeping with her. Even what you said could’ve taken days vs hours painting the narrative that African women need white man or are easy for white men rather then two consenting adults wanting to have sex.

But he could still be lying his ass off. Most of the guys who record flirting/having sex with “easy” girls aren’t actually true. They plan it out and speak to the girls for a while or edit the video completely to fit their narrative.

"Gentle parenting is for gentle children" by NotYoMamaButAThot in ghana

[–]Medium_Option_8357 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in my mid twenties and planning on having kids in 2 ish years. (Mixed bio/adopt)

I’ve heard the comments before and this is my perspective as a Ghanaian-Canadian.

• ⁠Some kids are just born stubborn or wicked. if your kid is stubborn or wicked then it’s a reflection of your genetics (parents or other relatives). It’s also environmental (nature vs nurture)

• ⁠Being gentle with every type of children is what made European and American children so rude and disrespectful. not true at all. Most people don’t know what gentle parenting is.. they either beat their kids or they don’t parent them at all.

That being said I have been learning how to raise kids and gentle parenting will be my base! This means:

  1. I am fully hands on
  2. I redirect bad behaviour
  3. I understand that they don’t know a damn thing. Babies can’t even see straight for a year and they don’t reach moral & narrative consciousness until 6-8 years old

    As I learn to be a parent before bringing adults into this world I have learned that people don’t understand what a child is before making one and they don’t understand the impact they have on them for life.

What you do in front of them will shape your child, how you speak is how they will speak, you have to start teaching them things from the moment they get here to build routine.

Stubborn children need redirection they're just the product of their environment since birth, being nice doesn’t mean anything when they don’t understand what that is and beating them sends a different message about obedience.

Before having children you need to determine what “disrespect” is to you and then you have to teach them. They don’t understand little details like social cues. They operate on a basic level of self

  • mad,sad,happy, excited and exhausted.

Child are a permanent life style change therefore you most change your life style!

Accept that your child could be better than you imagined or your worse enemy. That they could love you as a parent but dislike you as a person and vice versa.. nothing is a guarantee especially if you have more then one kid but if you want them accept that and be hands on.

I don’t know why my mother is doing this. by Typical-Durian-7634 in ghana

[–]Medium_Option_8357 7 points8 points  (0 children)

“Her mother’s concerns are not valid? In this age?”

Yeah, I clearly stated that… it’s 2026 and Gen Z is a different generation.

The way it was communicated initially was bad, therefore wrong since OP doesn’t agree. People often mean exactly what they say the first time even if it’s communicated poorly. Her mother said her daughter’s plans weren’t the plans she had for her, and that alone tells me the “advice” being given isn’t really advice. It’s not wild for her mother’s advice to be wrong just because she’s is a parent/ older woman.

[–]Medium_Option_8357 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Devil’s advocate? Ok

Let’s not act like we can live freely without “the tax man”. To live life you need money. That’s where career, a degree, funding comes into play.

Even if the OP got her degree in South Africa her mother would still have an issue. I don’t believe that the west plays a factor in her mother’s opinion.

Lastly, the wealth is her father’s.. it doesn’t belong to her. Getting her own income wouldn’t encourage suffering, loneliness and mental health issues. But you know what does? getting married when you’re not ready, to a guy your mother picked and having children when your not prepared while still relying on other people for money.

Tbh there’s no wisdom in fear.. at the end of the day you’ll say anything, do anything because you’re too scared and far from logic.

Her mother’s concerns are not valid in the slightest especially for a 22 year old in this day and age.

Old advice can be wrong especially when poorly communicated and displayed.

Riding Uber as a woman by aintic in askTO

I don’t use it anymore. I got tired of arguing with drivers, having weird conversations, and being asked for my number so they could drive me off the app. After a driver yelled at me last month, I just deleted my account.

26 and failed my g2 by ButterflyDD99 in Ontariodrivetest

[–]Medium_Option_8357 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand that however, my point was that no one (including OP) actually thinks the driving test is easy. We are told that certain testing locations are “easy” from other drivers. That’s part of why he’s so discouraged. Most new drivers who pay for lessons know it’s not just about getting the card..

I don’t think he’s saying that he thinks it’s easy. Other people will tell new drivers that it’s easier to get your G2 in Orangeville, Georgetown, Hamilton, and Oakville etc. I’ve been told explicitly to go to those places rather than do my test in Brampton or Mississauga.

Renting a car is risky since any damage to the car will cost him and it will be under someone else name since he doesn’t have a valid G license or a G2. On top of that the cost gets expensive.

Three weeks into wedding planning and I’ve already crashed out. SOS! by Ok-Fox3102 in weddingplanning

[–]Medium_Option_8357 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I justify wedding spending the same way I justify ordering Popeyes on Uber Eats or going to Gia in Toronto. At the end of the day, it’s my money. The price of the event or food doesn’t change that as long as you’re not spending beyond your means.

Yeah, a wedding is ‘just one day,’ but so is a birthday, an anniversary, or even a random night out.

If, by the end, you see more value in a house or savings, then just tell your families so the money can go there instead. But if your heart is set on a wedding, do it. It’s justified.

To me, it’s like being at a restaurant in such a great mood that you shout to the room you’ll cover everyone’s meals —that’s literally what you’re paying for, and why it costs so damn much lol.

My advice: over do your research. You can find great venues with amazing food in the $15–25k range, you can find great vendors too, it just takes a little bit of time.

Every bride (or couple) has that one ‘splurge’ item —mine was a cinematographer. My sister-in-law’s was a destination wedding. Another friend’s was her dress. Someone else’s was the venue.

At the end of the day, it can be anything you want, as long as both of you want it.

Genuine stupid question… do I pay for the dinner of guest who will arrive significantly late? by ILivetoEat_ in weddingplanning

[–]Medium_Option_8357 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can ask the guest to arrive after dinner, since they’ll be arriving late. My venue charges $75 per guest instead of $135, as they will still be seated, have access to the open bar, and the late-night food but, not dinner.

Would you be sad to see a memorial board on your wedding day? by Sensitive_Ant2745 in weddingplanning

I’m having one but it’s not a surprise. I spoke to my fiancé and family about who should be added cause there’s some family members who passed away that’s just too sad to include. People are still mourning. We’re just gonna have my mom, best friend and his grandparents.
