[@bobbyshabangu]

Some people are critising Trevor for not buying her grandmother a house and new furniture. Just to let you know, if you read Trevor's book Born a Crime, Trevor explains that gogo doesn't want her furniture refurbished and certainly she doesn't want to be moved. And that applies to all our South African gogo's actually, the furniture and the house is part of them, they don't define success by flashy things but are content with life and memories!

[@SouthCountyGal]

At age 91, why would she wish to move away from her community, away from the life she built and held onto despite all the hardships? I’m sure he does other things to make his gogo’s life easier, gifts that do not disrespect her accomplishments. Their affection for each other is very evident!

Most people would wonder why Trevor still lets his granma stay in a home like this, truth is most of our grandparents have grown to love their neighborhood and would refuse to move to a suburban big house, the only thing they ask for is to be taken care of

[@bargaingoldandsilver]

So true my grandma lived in the poorest part of El Salvador we would beg her to come move to the states with us she even had a green card. But she refused to she would only come live with us for six months which is the requirement to keep her green card

Greeting the neighbors whether you are friends or not this is small things that are rare in most places of the world.
