Mary, a mother of three, emphasized the importance of being prepared for the unexpected and the need for a selfless love, to navigate the challenges of parenting.
She humorously added that her kids are testing her patience, but her love for them remains unwavering.
“One minute it feels like I’m nailing this parenting, and the next, I’m wondering, “How did we get here?”. Parenting is a real jungle!
Expect the unexpected.
Hmmm. The love a mother has for a child has to be agape o! Cos dem dey test me o!”.
In another social media post, Mary Njoku laments how people misuse social media to solve issues.
According to her, some people prefer to be keyboard warriors and lament online rather than address issues physically.
The mother of three, who is the founder of Rok TV, noted that she missed the days when she could meet up with people who mess up and they would have real conversations to settle it.
Mary Njoku added that some people use social media to seek public sympathy and temporary fame, that is why issues do not change.
The movie star advised that when people are done with social media, they should go back to handling issues in real life where no one cares about their struggles. Mary Njoku wrote:
“I miss the days when, if someone messed up, you’d confront them in person and have a real conversation.
Now, we’ve become keyboard warriors, seeking public sympathy and temporary fame on SM instead of facing issues head-on.
That’s why nothing changes!
That ‘Lecturer’ might still not be fired!
Real life is REAL and no one truly cares about your struggles. While on SM, Start solving your problems in the real world.
Wake up.”
“Wake up! Social Media isn’t REAL. Stop living in it. REAL IS REAL.”
