RE: The Burden of being the first child in the family

in Lifestylelast month (edited)

so many societal pressures and customs. it sure sounds like high expectations and demands placed on you as firstborn.

would you like to pass that on? or try to find a different way for the generations to come?

i have pretty much laid down all i have been taught as the vast majority of it turned out to be false. specifically the norms and 'have to's' of modern life in germany.

blessings to you and your family

The Burden is just too much for me.. A heavyweight for real 🤦‍♂️

Thanks I appreciate your concern

as the saying goes: "when the student is ready, the teacher appears."
so either you are ready to use the challenge and grow, or you choose to change things to something different with your own kids so that they can grow up freer.

bit what do i know? i grew up in germany and am living in a car on permanent travels. ahahahaha.

good luck to you either way!!

Smile, thanks for the advice.
Growing up in Germany will never be as difficult as growing up in Nigeria though 😂

yes, there are different kinds of problems in different places. i guess the ones that affect us locally always seem most difficult.
