If you’re a parent, you know that sometimes emotions get the best of you. Somehow children can really push those buttons you didn’t know you had.
A man has described his agony at hearing his wife constantly screaming every weekday as she helps their children prepare for school.
He reacted in a short video on tiktok about how his wife loses her temper with their children and sought questions from netizens if they experience the same situation in their homes.
What appears to be chaotic scenes in homes weekdays prompted Herman Kamariki to pose the question about screaming/angry wives as they prepare their children for school every weekday.
He noted that the scenes appeared to be replicated in many homes across the capital.
“I have a question, but this only goes to people who are married, they live with their wives, and the children. So, if you dont have a child or are not in marriage, just scroll.”
“I have a question is it only me, ama tuko wengi? Because is there a wife out here mwenye anaweza prepare watoi waende shule asubuhi bila kelele?” he remarked
“I’m just asking, especially kama wewe uko kwa ground, I mean anaweza amka asubuhi, atengeneze watoto awavalishe na waende shule without making noise? Is it only me ama tuko wengi?” he continued to narrate
“Those guys who have wives and they prepare your kids in the morning as they go to school, and then it makes matters worse when you are around.” he complained again.
Seeking advice, the man said wives should ask for help from their men if the situation is tough
“Unaskianga kele zingine funny, unaskia songeza mguu hapa, ” wiping tears from his eyes, he added that husbands who happen to be asleep at that time, also listen in to the noise….”you wonder, kwani is it only me ama tuko wengi?Let’s talk guys because to me I always feel ni kama and now it is even worse, ukiwa bado uko bed unalala na ye ndio ana prepare! Kama mnataka kusaidiwa si mnasema tu” he added in his plea.
