“You drag career women then when reality hits, you run to our DMs to ask for money” Businesswoman drags stay-at-home mum who begged her for financial assistance

A businesswoman has dragged women who choose to stay without paying jobs in the name of taking care of their husband and children.  Roberta Edu, the founder of Moppet brand, narrated how a woman sent her a direct message to beg for money because she quit her job to care for her family.  The businesswoman berated such women and pointed out that they are the same ones who shame career women and feminists, but when they need money, they run to those same women to beg for their help. She wrote: “A woman came to my DM yesterday in tears, a young woman. She begged me to come to her aid, saying she was about to kpai of hunger. She said, she had left her job to take care of her children and husband, but now things had turned against her.  “I don’t know what angered me most: that she thinks she needs to be jobless to take care of husband or a thought might have come close to her head that we working women might not be taking care of our husband and children.  “I have always said, and I say it boldly, that if some of you were me, you would never lift a finger to do anything. My husband is fully capable of funding my lifestyle, take care of our children, and provide for us. If I were to stop working today, I would never be in anyones DM asking for money for food. Since getting married, I have never paid house rent, school fees, or medical bills, except for what our insurance from work covers. Thats how comfortable I am.  “Yet, I am restless, Uyo today, Port Harcourt tomorrow  hustling like someone who would go hungry if they didnt work tomorrow. But you women, with struggling, poverty-driven spouses, carry your lazy behinds, sit still in the house, lack zeal, bad-mouth feminism, drag career women, and make reckless decisions. You declare things like: ‘No nanny will touch my child,’ ‘I will homeschool for seven years,’ ‘My husband must eat food that I cook with my bare hands only.’ Then, when reality hits, you run to our DMs to ask for money.  “So, does my husband not deserve food made with my own hands? Do my kids not deserve their mother walking them to school? Does my body not deserve the luxury of sleeping in till noon?  “Let me put this to you all, I will never part with a dime for a submissive, jobless woman, no matter how many tears she sheds. The people I help,  will always be working women, especially those with no access to the internet who truly need support.  “I love how God has shared problems evenly for everyone. Hold your side of hunger, and we will hold our side of hustle.  Suffer na suffer, choose yours. The post “You drag career women then when reality hits, you run to our DMs to ask for money” Businesswoman drags stay-at-home mum who begged her for financial assistance appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
