Hi guys, this video explains how I ended up in maintenance court and what the emotional effects of dealing with deadbeat dads have been for me. Hope you find this video valuable.
Please don't mind the quality, sadly, I am still shooting with my phone. It will get better though, I promise.

You’re South African! Sorry, I'm excited because I love finding South African moms on RU-vid. I’ve been binge-watching your videos and it’s so refreshing to watch your honesty in motherhood. Subscribed 💃🏽 Men are given the option to opt out of fatherhood too easily, especially in SA. Even within marriage. Thank you for sharing your story 👏🏾👏🏾

Thank you for sharing your story. It's easy for someone who hasn't experienced this to be judgemental. I'm in a similar situation, I was married to my baby daddy but nothing stopped him from turning around and for me to be a single mom. Nothing in life is guaranteed no matter how cautious you try to be. Keep being strong for your kids it's the best we can do for them.

I always say it's not the title that will secure you and your child but the character of that man will. My mom and dad were never together when they had me but my dad took on his role like a champ. I moved from my mom to live with my dad when I was 7 and I've been with him ever since till my mom passed. I'm 27 now and I'm sure my mom is in peace knowing she never had to worry about my dad suddenly turning his back on me.

Very strong woman held back by Poor planning ....especially on the second one!! Who has live sex with people they are barely in a relationship with? Sometimes hardship is very predictable. Hope you find your footing and enjoy life the way God intended for you. Use Values to vet people. Some people are for a reason, Some for a season, others for a lifetime. If you lack values, u will try to make seasonal people lifetime people & end in pain. You will mis-categorize people. Values are what guide u to avoid pitfalls. e.g A man who sleeps with u without even knowing u tells u what their value system is and what to expect from them. For the ladies viewing this, approach sex with deep thought and awareness of possibilities & responsibility. Develop your values before dating!

I accidently stubble on your page and I feel right at home. Your content is honest, relatable and just the conversation that we need to have with others and ourselves. From my experience as a child who grew up with an absent/inconsistent father, I must say it has impacted me negatively. I found that I dive into relationships looking for that love that I dint get from my father, I fear rejection and a relationship ending and always internalize even the smallest detail. On the other hand I fear relationships ending and the person hurting me that I end up leaving after the slitest inconvenience and end up pushing them away due to my insecurities. I have a 2year old little girl who's father went AWOL and I vowed to make sure she never experiences these feelings or doubts herself due to his absence. Once again, love your content.

💔 wow. Heartbreaking. Endure until the end. It’ll all be ok in the end. Get the kids into therapy so they can learn how to process their feelings relating to their fathers. Get yourself into therapy too. What a heavy burden. Life comes in full circle. The kids will be fine, the fathers will not be. We’ve seen this happen over and over again. It never ends well for them. You’re doing great. Continue with that. ❤️ I’m down with flu and I’ve literally spent all afternoon watching your videos. I’m sorry that you’re going through this. 13 years...?

The problem with us Africans is calling women who want to be provided for gold diggers. Majority Asians and Caucasians the man takes care of everything. Like all men should. Women are soft hearted. Don't start a relationship sharing bills with a man. You will end up paying all the bills. If you feel guilty when taken care of, it's time to re-mother yourself. Women are meant to be taken care of so they can handle pregnancy, childcare, homecare and all other feminine duties with grace.

Having a child in marriage isn't a guarantee either. Nothing in life is guaranteed. Man can pack up and leave anytime he wants. That is why when you decide to have a child, have a child for yourself. Not because you're married or in a commited relationship.

Hey❤️ I may not know you personally however I care about you deeply because I know how much you mean to Jesus The King of all creation . I want to tell you that Jesus Christ loves you so much, he died for our sins so that whoever believes in him wouldn’t have to perish in hell but instead have eternal life in heaven. You need to understand that HEAVEN and HELL are 1000% REAL they aren’t imaginary , and hell is a horrible place I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy. God doesn’t want you to end up there he wants you in heaven and so he is giving you a chance to accept the sacrifice of his son Jesus Christ and be saved. Day by Day the world is falling apart because we are literally living in the last days of Earth there is no doubt or debate about it, Jesus Christ is coming faster then you think to bring judgement to the world and to destroy it. This really is URGENT, it’s NOT A JOKE ,Tomorrow isn’t promised to anyone, you can be alive one minute and gone the next, please take this opportunity to be on the side of Mercy confess your sins and wicked ways to Jesus , sincerely repent/turn away from them, and ask for his forgiveness- ask him to enter your heart and to be your Lord and Savior before it is too late , truly believe in him and he WILL do it because it is his promise. It’s important that you seek the righteous and Holy path of the Most high God so that you may inherit eternal life and be spared of Hell fire. You can begin a new life in Christ and have a genuine relationship with him, please repent. May the Lord be with you eternally💕🙏🏾

I hope you heal from this but also learn from your mistakes. Please don't get me wrong, I'm not saying your kiddies are mistakes, I'm saying make a selfish decision For yourself and your girls in your next relationship to not land up in the same place. There's too much uncertainty with having babies with boyfriends, its just so heartbreaking... The inconsistency sounds like its doing more harm than good and his words are piercing her heart. That has got to stop, I think boundaries need to be set in place that he knows not to mess with your daughters heart like that. She's gonna grow up feeling rejected and finding love in the wrong places.

The biggest thing your daughter needs right now is guidance. Allow her the space to express herself and keep her involved in some sort of activities (school sports, community work/events, hobbies, etc.) Anything to really make her feel purposeful, and give her time A LOT of it to. Please be patient with your daughter and understand her feelings are not directed towards you. As a mother, show her the value of being a wholesome woman and keep a open transparent relationship with her. These are a few things I wished my mother did after losing my father, but all the best❤❤❤

From the perspective of someone who is from the US, what is good about your story in the case of your first daughter is that at least his family had a meeting with your family. It's a beautiful thing when both families can be involved and provide some type of support. I wish we had that here. Over here sadly it's uncommon for families to meet if a baby is involved. Only if the couple is in a serious relationship the two families may possibly come together.

Argh man, I'm so sorry you went through this😭 I wish men knew the trauma they put children through. I hope your first born gets over the idea of having a relationship with him because she's always gonna be the only one trying. What's even more painful is watching your dad be the best dad to his other children while he won't even come see you when he promised to. Yoh💔

Hi. I loved hearing your story. I am so sympathetic. I grew up with daddy issues. My dad is alive. He's well. Bt has never been present. I used to pack up and go force a relationship all the way to Namibia, using my varsity allowance, promoside me graduation clothes, I had to borrow an outfit on graduation as well as gown. All I had was shoes,it broke me. . When I grew up I chose to respect myself. Bt it's important 4 a child to know their father and decide for herself he's a deadbeat. You doing an amazing job raising them. My mom had 3 kids different fathers. I was so judgemntal of her. Bt I understand. She raised without any contribution from any of them. Bt she did. Sha did everything bt it affected her emotionally. Please avoid this. She became too harsh, narcissistic at times. Bt I get her. It then promoted me to avoid having a child out of wedlock because I just didn't want to struggle like she did. Bt still I respect and admire the resilience of single moms. You chose to have u daughter though dad said abort. Big ups mom. You chose ur daughter and that's special. U love her.

I'm currently going through the same thing with my daughters father that time he's my neighbour ,he got another girl pregnant and he's been there for her since day one till today . We're always looking at them as a family loving on their child . He hasn't seen my daughter in a year and we live directly opposite each other he doesn't care about her I believe he hates her . The grandmother his mother denied her and him to . After DNA tests came out to confirm that she was indeed his he went and got a protection order against me and asked I never talk to him about my child . Never come near him and all that . Nami ke I left him alone . I'm raising my baby on my own she's almost 2 she doesn't know her father and he also doesn't know her .

Hi strong mommy, I just recently came across your channel through a friend that told me about you 😊.. I haven’t even went far as too seeing more of your content but I love you ❤.. honestly speaking this video touched me a lot and I can see how strong you are trying to be.. I relate to this soo much Bcos it’s exactly what I’m going through right now, currently pregnant and going through it all alone in a foreign country and my 4year old. Trust me it’s soo hard and I hope one day I’ll get the courage to shame my story as well. But no that sis , I know exactly the pain you feeling and I’m going through it right now. Love and kisses and hope to meet you one day with your babies. Keep going there’s nothing wrong with you, you an amazing mother and your babies deserve you.

I feel sorry for the children that have to go through this. The men who refuse to take responsibility are just plain trash….. However I think some women try to absolve themselves of the accountability. In this example, better choices could have been made. I wonder… Did you know he was married? Even if you didn’t know…..Why would it surprise you that his family wouldn’t warm up to you? They already lobola-erd a makoti.. They are obviously annoyed and it’s embarrassing to the family. Please be considerate of the innocent lives that have to suffer the choices you make. You would trust someone to repair the consequences of previous choices but you’re repeating the same bad choice. Why not use contraceptives or even better abstain? Instead of feeling entitled that now family must be involved in bad choices that have nothing to do with them? After everything the 1st child has been through, why get into the same situation again? I have a family member who has such m baby daddy issues and guess what it doesn’t stop her from repeating the cycle. And each time she want to be seen as a victim and expects everyone to fall over themselves to help the situation. It’s so embarrassing to keep going emizini ukuyo biga i-cala.. Where is the self love.. Like everyone has their own things to deal with.

Hey Keamo, I also hope you're ready mommy. It's sad that you're the one who has to tell that truth. It's such a hard conversation to have but it will definitely bring you and your son closer. Hope that's consolation.

I can totally relate to your story, My second baby daddy’s had his favourite child and his family aswel loves his favorite child. Like I remember this one time i was forced to go with him to home affairs for the Surnames to be the same and he said if I didn’t want to than I shouldn’t tell him anything about his child. I did agree but i didn’t get any maintenance from him. I even remember when he bought his favourite baby clothes that day, he tried to hide it but i saw a huge package from Ackamens. And on the same day in the Afternoon he posted his favourite daughter. How i got through this whole thing i prayed and accepted everything thing as it is. Im quiet happy cause my younger daughter is obsessed with me, she never wants to live with out me. For my first daughter she only visits them during holidays but never pay any maintenance. They buy her clothes only if it suits them. 😆. You not alone and you not the problem, they just don’t know what they want. But i still wish them well.

i have been rejected by my biological mother, since the age of three. we live in the same village by the way, never has she bothered about me. im 24 now, nothing has changed. last of last year i felll pregnant i have a dead beat baby daddy, But since i know how rejection feels, i prepare myself for my child's questions and im not gonna hide anything from her, im gonna tell exactly as it is when the time comes. Sometimes we just need to understand that that's how some people are, there's nothing you can do in this world to change them if they are determined to do you wrong. I feel like somethings are just need to accepted and try to live your life to the fullest, you cant waste the amount of years God has given you in this world chasing people to take accountability, you're too precious for that.

It's funny to me how the man knew he was married, so he lied to you and his wife, but you are being attacked, victimized, alienated, and verbally abused. The double standards are like… wow!!! People should be ashamed! I am really sorry that you had to go through all of this. Men are so weird, you just never know. Such narcissistic behavior.

I wish I could make voicenote on this 1,I 100% relate. I am now 31 Years old my father would rather die than being a father to me...January this year theres a traditional ceremony that was supposed to be performed for me from my his side of the family. infront of both his parents he said I AM NOT HIS CHILD. when his father said "this child belongs here, its been years you have been running away " his answer was " If ndingowa phana , then he does not belong there ke yena and he would rather pack his bags and never come back" unfortunatlye his dad stood by me and everything was done in his absence [my father] these wounds never heal... we just learn to live with them

It's also been the most devastating thing I've ever gone through being abandoned with baby. But I felt at least lucky he left cause he would have made my life hell. We have a hard life too raising alone, but the chaos that would come with his presence is a relief he left and didnt interfere.
