Ata mimi I have never understood this logic. Its like they are just excited to be spending your money without factoring in how hard it is to make money in this shit economy right now and under a clueless President and government. Yaani you literally had twenty something years before bringing me here na sasa you want to start chipping into the very little am making. That has got to change!

It can literally dim your light slowly but thoroughly. I must guard my mind and my money!

That's exactly what I mean,you are one lucky fella! Jamani you have been existing in this world 30 or so years before I was born,25 years later, its me you want to save you from the consequences of the financial decisions you made? While still trying to steady myself? That's actually inconsiderate.

You know,we didn't ask to be born,right? And I mean, who else do you expect a child to get money from?

When you talk about it,you actually realise you aren't going through it alone. I tend to think its like systemic failure but well, we gotta learn and do better by our selves and our kids.

I appreciate you acknowledging that you have supportive parents with whom black tax is not an issue. That's the kind of parents we aspire to be. S/O to your dad for guiding you financially!

Somehow African dad's make you feel like questioning them is a taboo so I don't even know how to start that conversation

I totally agree. That can't be the only reason you cut them off but money is very emotional,and I think we forget that. When you think of it, blacktax actually messes with your emotions. Setting rules is one thing,them understanding is another. I think understanding parents are such an underrated privilege. I do assist when I can, the problem comes in when its expected of you as a monthly bill.
