My name is Angelina, I am a seamstress and an interior decorator ,I also bake wedding cakes . I have seven sons . My first son is 17 years old and in his final year in secondary school. My husband and I are not too educated, but we are good disciplinarians. I learnt how to read and write because I went to a domestic school before I started my business.
We thought we were bringing up our sons in the way of the Lord , they always go to Catechism classes. We provided the best of everything for our sons. We never knew that our sons were something else outside our home. They were always well behaved at home.
I was in my shop one day when two women came in. I thought they were customers . I welcomed them in. The next thing I could remember was a slap on my face from one of the women. She was about to give me a second slap when I held her hands and people around hurriedly held her. I held myself together not to retaliate and fight back. I have never met her before and I do not know her. She had created a scene already. She was asked by a few of the people who had gathered round what was the matter. She said she wanted “to teach me a lesson” on how to train my sons. She then told me that my 17 year old son got her 16 year old daughter pregnant. Quite a number of the people gathered around told her to blame her daughter and not my son. My son denied the accusation and said he wasn’t responsible for her pregnancy.
If you were in my shoes, what would you have done? Would you fight back ? what will you do to your son? What will you advice me to do? This incident is just two weeks back from today.
