She is such a strong lady. I was raised by my mum's sister and that woman and her children were God sent, I even forgot I was an orphan 😂😂😂😂.

Though she passed on I still feel the love from my cousins, I really thank God for them.

I don't why it's so hard for people to understand that kids shouldn't be treated in a bad way coz they don't choose to be born as "unwanted" I wish people would get to understand this simple concept. No child is unwanted and every child is a gift from God and some hold destinies for those who mistreat them like we always see from the story of Joseph in the bible.

That line...'you owe no one a thank you!' Only orphans and those who were raised up by well-wishers understand the depth of this statement!

[@florencemuchoki3009]

Very well put. No child asks for their parents to die or neglect them. Better still no child goes asking to be raised, they are children, they find themselves and live through whatever it is they find themselves in. I have not heard a parent tell their children to go thank them for raising them. Because being a parent to a child is a responsibility and not a favour to the child. So for those raising children that are not theirs,do it whole heartedly expecting nothing in return than the blessings of God.

What a an intellectual lady. Yes, school is important because we have to be learned but educated people like Lydia are not that common in the current world. The knowledge, attitude, values and skills she has are taking her places. The sky is the limit and the so called graduates will be part of her staff. TRUST ME, SHE IS A CHILD OF GOD. As adults we need to make conscious decisions on who and what we choose to associate with. Toxic relationships are the number one cause of negative mental health. So I agree with you 100 % that those relatives should maintain a reasonable distance from you and be steadfast with that. Keep on holding to God and "throw your anxiety on him because he CARES for you" - 1 Peter 5:7 Thanks Lynn once again :)

Because those are bantu people just like Xhosa or Zulu..there are other Kenyans who look completely different especially the Cushites and the Nilotes. Hlengi, Kenyans are so diverse from the coast to the Lake.

I had my parents and never enjoyed luxury....My childhood was characterised by hard labour... I thank God, this is what has made me strong today... Shopping was soap, Colgate a small tube, pads, two tissue papers, Vaseline, small kiwi and pens.... My head was clean every term...

"The people we owe a thank you can be a point of trauma for you" that's the theme of this ground breaking story and most of us reckon with such a statement
