How did the circumstance surrounding your birth affect you?

Once a child is born, a lot of things happen. For most people, it could bring joy, and for others sadness.

The way life is, there are lots of people who wish, they can give birth to a child of their own. And there are those, who get pregnant, and do not want the child at the moment.

If you look at it, you will begin to wonder if fate doesn’t know what he is doing. But he always behaves as though he does.

There are families that the presence of a child will bring peace, and the conflicts or fights they had will be resolved amongst themselves.

There are also families, who will shed blood as a result of the birth of the child. And this could be because of the gender of the child, and most importantly, how his gender will affect the role he has to play in the family.

For other people, who may not have wanted to spend the rest of their lives together, a child could bring them together.

And then there will always be those, whom the presence of a child separates them as a result of the hatred that will ensue.

This hatred could be created by the negligence of one of the parties, and even the thought of destroying the child before it is born.

In reality, most people who do not have the means to raise their child, still allow it to come to birth, but, throw it away to be picked up by another who is badly in need of one.

These ones are the ones who will rather live with the regret of abandoning their offspring, than the regret of killing it.

And the lucky parent who finds the abandoned child will have to live with the regret of picking up something that wasn’t theirs, and never having to tell the child, once he is of age.

There are a lot of complications surrounding the birth of any child. At times, it is a complication arising during childbirth.

Misfortune could strike, and even though the parents wanted the child to live, it dies during birth. And another misfortune may be the mother giving up her life so that the child could live.

The child who is birthed in the latter situation gets to live with the regrets and blame of killing the mother. And such emotions could be churned out by her father, or relatives.

And in most cases, the child often wishes, he or she never lived.

Misfortunes come in other ways, and another one is the evidence that surrounds, a switch of children by midwives.

These midwives could be paid tp switch the children around. Or in most cases, to take away, a baby from a mother who gave birth to twins, or triplets.

There are scenarios in which the family of the child will be the mastermind of such an incident. This may be because of low financing to take care of multiple children at once or mostly out of desperation.

Children if they knew the circumstances behind their birth may not even want ot be born.

There are mild jokes concerning the country, a child is born into. Most people would rather have been born in a different country than the current ones.

They despise their nationality so much that they joking say “You miss road” if you happen to be born in a country they do not like.

The same goes for the complexion of a child. A lot of people will ask a child where he or she hails from. And once told, will be surprised.

Why? That is because the skin color gave them a wrong impression about the nationality of the child.

Are we going to forget about children who are born with deformities? Of course not, this is always the most painful scenario.

This is because any child who is deformed in any way will always have to face bullying.

This could be bullying from relations, friends, and colleagues in school. The child who finds himself or herself in such conditions, always wish, they were never born.

To make matter worse, they see themselves as imbeciles, ones who are incapable of amounting to anything.

However, those children who find the motivation to work around their deformities, often, find the world clapping for them.

Why? That is because they have been able to pull a stunt that only normal people are supposed to, regardless of their deformity.

Every child with a deformity, then, should be encouraged to use his or her strength well, and try as much as possible to find inclinations that are peculiar to their deformity. It always goes a long way.

There are children whose birth break marriages and family ties. They are those ones that are called “bastards” or children born out of wedlock.

This could be as a result of the misbehavior of any of their parents; the man or the woman.

And such situations cause hurts and wounds that take time to heal. As this is the matter of the heart.

If care is not taken, children in this kind of children rarely find love in the heart of their parents, or may struggle to get them.

And they are left in the world to find love for themselves.

And because they lacked the basics love gotten from parents, they tend to be slingy in nature. And they place all of their happiness on a fellow human.

And once that human errs, they begin to feel the entire world hates them, and they will never be able to satisfy their urge for love, care, and attention.

If we go on, we will find that, the circumstances surrounding the birth of a child is massive; and what every child needs is love, care, and attention; irrespective of the situations or circumstances that surrounds their birth.
