I am reminded of Gina Yashere (who plays Kemi and was a writer on this show) doing a stand-up routine where she said there are only four possible careers in a Nigerian home: doctor, lawyer, engineer, and disgrace to the family.
Ngl...white Aunties, educators, friends have their place in my heart 💕 So many things I couldn't communicate as a child of African parents that they deciphered and communicated with ease and without fear. They didn't understand everything but they understood enough. Really helped me alot as a kid.
My mom are no contact and my dad and I have a rocky relationship that is leading the same way. One thing I'm so thankful they never did was pressure me about grades and my future. They let me stumble and try my best. They were never down on me for failing either.
Abishola's need to let her son get a breathe of the blood and see if he can stand up.... She wants him to be a doctor... If he can't stand when his operating on somebody... How's he going to be a doctor?????? Abishola's !!!!
The mother wishes she could be a Doctor and wants to brag about her son's accomplishments 😅...this is nothing new especially if you have lived in Africa 😅... I never understood the pressure, and you wonder why when the children are older their relationship is estranged with their elderly Parent's.
@@tumweonlycommentary2797the pressure in certain cases is because they want thier children to be successful or thier percieves version of it anyway. It's why they work thier asses off to send thier children to school especially the middle class in Nigeria. And why they almost always insist of professional courses like medicine, law, engineering, accounting etc. Because during a certain time period for them these where the only really secure jobs where you could be sure you were going to be paid a salary that would sustain you. And because some of theme are civil servants and know hoe the system work they don't really want thier children to have those kinds of jobs. It's a parents good intentioned but slightly misguided attempt for thie child to be successful
To be fair many of the successful doctors nurses you know today had the same reaction first time they saw that much blood or when they first encountered a body during anatomy classes.
Doesnt accurately depict the culture even a little bit. Im Nigerian who has lived in middle class Nigeria all my life. A lot of the sceneriors never happen in Nigerian culture
You know this scene is far more common than many would expect. Kids nowadays are under so much pressure about their futures. As a teacher, I know that I should guide them into a good college... But in good conscience I can't throw them like rocks. I always tell them to take it easy, find themselves first and then make a decision
African parents are like this, although the world is changing and they're gradually letting their grips loose but they actually love their kids being in "noble" and decorated professions like medicine,law, engineering,etc😄😄😄😄
@@hinata167 I've noticed they only ever point this out when it's women, so yeah if it was a male character they'd be more ambivalent if not fine with it. I saw more justification behind Tayo's disappointment in Dele than Abishola's
You still have to dissect cadavers and go through at least 2 surgery rotations. If you pass out at the sight of blood you’re a goner, especially when the smell of some things (GI bleeds, abscesses, diabetic foot ulcers) are much worse. And by the way, gynecologists are surgeons.

Christina is a good aunt. She loves Dele & truly listens to him.
How could you not?! Look at that face!!
I love that uncle Tunde always defends Bob
How dare you run away “without my permission” 😂😂😂

Just like in an Asian home.

Stop idolizing white people
I don't know what it is about that kid But if everything with marvel goes through properly I hope he gets to play miles morales as Spider-Man
Facts true
My mom are no contact and my dad and I have a rocky relationship that is leading the same way. One thing I'm so thankful they never did was pressure me about grades and my future. They let me stumble and try my best. They were never down on me for failing either.
We Indian kids can totally relate 😂
Guess we are siblings then 😂😂😂
Facts lol
2:42 the way they glare at Dele 😂😂😂😂
Poor Dele😂
Nigerian Parents ehn! Very controling and strict.
Right..all Africa...try to understand is desobey !!! .even ot is wrong and rough...they are right. positive training ?? What is it ?
I feel that
Same with Asian and Latin American parents
Honestly 😂😂
same with mexican parents and grandparents
2 weeks is actually very generous lol
😅😅
My thoughts exactly! Pretty fair😂😂😂😂
I mean doctors arent usually surgeons, whole different side of the profession
Abishola's need to let her son get a breathe of the blood and see if he can stand up.... She wants him to be a doctor... If he can't stand when his operating on somebody... How's he going to be a doctor?????? Abishola's !!!!
then he wouldn't be a surgeon
@yasinbello8781 if you can't stand the smell of blood , your not going to be a doctor

Wow😂 ! A whole "two weeks"
The standard American vacation at a big firm with good benefits.
At least it used to be when everyone worked at a firm for many years, if not decades.
I know it's another culture but man, this is messed up
It must be so traumatising but also, they end up earning enough money to hire 5 therapists a week
@lamoskgr That's not really the point
@@lamoskgr this is so true. All my cousins ended up rich. 😊
@@tayo0404since they are that rich, do they need therapists too?

Engineer

They are acting what happens in a comical manner

I feel sorry for Dele
The nigerian hammer
What's the shows name
Bob Hearts Abishola
*Bob❤Abishola*
Lil bro dont got the stomach for it
I cant blame him, only a select few can do it
Gotta have the smarts and the stomach for it
Damn even I said really 😂😂😂
Hate abisholas mother ebun🙄🙄
Everyone hates her
Hahaha this guy is in trouble😂
3:44 🤣🤣
Cultural domination - deaf parents
Such an enjoyable show...i can completely relate...i love a show devoid of wokeness
Aren’t there many medical professionals that do not have to deal with blood?
Dermatologist
@@newjerseylion4804that's just pus. Worse than blood 😂
Bob😂 it to letter for going to school
Dele could be an optometrist, still a Doctor but much less blood
3:43 😂😂😂HAHAHAHA
We will not talk about your future for 2 weeks...
Aww when he said, no🥺
I just need to know are Africans really like this?
African parents are like this, although the world is changing and they're gradually letting their grips loose but they actually love their kids being in "noble" and decorated professions like medicine,law, engineering,etc😄😄😄😄
They want the best for you. even though they don't show it well.
Asian parents, too.
How did a tall family have a short son?
Must have been his biological father who went back to Nigeria. We dont see him in this series.
I was eating
Thise saying this never happens are very optimistic 😂, like bruh do you have omniscience to see into everyones lives.
Hahaha
When a boy is dominated by opinionated women , demanding, conteoling, angry we've seen what he becomes ....
It's a sitcom, they trying hard to be funny. This is what the writers think is funny.
successful
So if it was men it would be ok?
If you mean a homosexual.... I don't exactly agree. They usually become really abusive men with psychological issues.

So don t become a surgent, there are other different type of doctor... From proctology to neurology from gynecologist to oncologist
