If you grew up with African parents,
forget emotional damage — you’re already bulletproof.
Because their insults weren’t normal...
They were weapons of mass destruction. 😭👇
2.
One time I told my mum I was tired after washing plates.
She said:
> “Tired? When I was your age I was farming, cooking, and giving birth to goats at the same time.”
Wait ma — did I hear goats?! 🐐😭
3.
Another day I told my dad,
“Daddy I got 2nd position in class!”
He looked me dead in the eye and asked:
> “So the person that got 1st, does he have two heads?”
Sir... 😩
4.
When you misbehave in public, African parents won’t shout.
They’ll smile and say:
> “Wait till we get home.”
That wait is more dangerous than any horror film. 💀
5.
You ask them for money and they’ll say:
> “Am I your mate? If you need money, go and look for your real parents.”
AH. So now I’m adopted? 😭
6.
Try saying you’re hungry before dinner.
They’ll say:
> “So what did you eat in school? Knowledge??”
Yes mummy. I chewed mathematics with small biology. 😩
7.
One day I said “I want to be like Wizkid.”
My mum said:
> “You want to be useless and be dancing like you’re running mad?”
Even Wizkid felt that insult spiritually 😭
8.
African parents can compare you to anyone.
“See your mate, Junior. He is now in America studying medicine.”
But when Junior goes to prison in Canada, they will say:
> “Don’t follow bad friends o.” 😂
9.
And the worst one:
You try to explain yourself and they say:
> “So you’re talking back at me? You now have mouth?”
Sir, if I don’t talk with my mouth, what should I use? Bluetooth? 😭
10.
After shouting at you for 45 minutes, they’ll ask:
> “Why are you quiet now? Talk na! Or are you stupid?”
AH. It’s a trap. Don’t say anything. Don’t even breathe. 😭
11.
But despite all the insults and spiritual headlocks,
African parents love us deeply —
They just express it with pain, pepper, and parables. 😂❤️
