‘No Way My Son Was Left Behind’ – Nigerian Single Mom Rejects Proposal Over Child Clause
1 / 3
In 2022, I was happily living on my own when a young man proposed to me. He laid out several conditions, and I was ready to agree. Then he dropped the biggest one: my son could never live with us. That was a deal-breaker. I refused on the spot. I could not allow anyone to exclude my child from our home. My son is my world, and I choose single motherhood every day with pride and joy. Thank you to everyone who made my son’s 12th birthday special. Your prayers and gifts mean the world to us. Next time you see me, remember to respect my name—and my boy. He’s 12 now!
