Have a male child or die trying



Before you go giving birth to plenty children, all because you seek a male child, ask yourself these simple questions; what will they eat? Where will they live and what will they be doing? If you find no answer, keep the ova in the ovaries and the spermatozoa in the testicles.



It’s all about planning your family to the number of children you can care for, quality and not quantity children



So it pains me, make my skin boil, to hear that in this present time, in 2016, couples still give birth to children more than they’ve planned and incapable to cater for all in the name of having a ‘male child’



As couples if planned to have 2 or 3 or 4 children, don’t go ahead giving birth on and on to bear 5 or 7, 8 9 children because of a male child. If faith says you won’t have that male child, give birth to twenty, u still won’t, and that’s not even it, after having large number or children and may or may not have the desired boy child, have u answered the questions stated above? How do you care for this children? Remember the more children, more demands, and with or without male child you still need to care for them all equally.



It’s even more hurtful to know that’s its mothers in-law who go instigating the woman with hurtful words that she is yet to have children because what her son has are all girls. words like ‘You yet to bear a child because I can’t see a male amidst, your girls will get married who will retain the family name’ all you children are liabilities where is the male who is an assets’ and the list goes on and on, all sort of demoralizing hurtful words that will make the woman depressed and she goes giving birth to have the male child. In some cases getting pregnant every year, giving birth through caesarian section, with all stress infringing her health and overall wellbeing.



The annoying part of it is that this mother-in-law’s are educated women, midwives who are well aware on the embryology of having a male child is dependent on the man. If they themselves were male children and all humans on earth are male, who will they marry and how will procreation continue.



God has a reason for both male and female on earth surface. Of course it’s all couple desire to have both male and female children. But when a family is blessed with all boys they don’t go ahead bearing kids all to have a female children, then why is the case with the girls as children. God has a reason for blessing some families with all girls, another all boys, another both sexes with varied number of males and female, and at it all nature balance everything.



Tell me what is it that a girl can’t become in the future: doctors? Engineers? Pilot? Soldiers? Police? Women have being and continue to be ministers, CEOs of organizations, president and so on.



President Barack Obama has two daughters it dint stop him from being the president of America, his Girls are lovable and are and will be great achievers, he dint go ahead stressing to have a male child who will inherit name



So have all daughters, o! Beautiful, give them a life, a career and see them excel, women are great leaders, intelligent and achieve all that a male child also can be. After all is the same nine month, labor process, for both male and female the problem is the training orientation giving to them with lesser priority to females, and to it all die- male, females, parents die, all children grandchildren great grandchildren will all die, generations to generations will roll over and again



So going on to give birth to a male that will carry ‘name’ only….all things passing away#



So give your girls and boys the best, let them believe in their ability and capability and soar so high to see them make you proud



Remember some couples are in dare need of a ‘hand’ and yet to conceive one, so don’t let the absence of a male child break your home or cause you to give your girls a lesser life.





Thank You.
