Each One Teach One 5 - Eps 14: Forgiving your abusive parent

Today Each One Teach One shares a story of how a childhood of abuse can lead to unresolved anger and self-esteem challenges as the child enters their teens and young adulthood. Mamello has had a particularly rough time and although still only 24 has been the child of a teen mother who was never ready for the responsibility of a child and suffered because of it. Today she is trying to get her life together through studying while her son is raised by his father’s family in Lesotho. She does not want to be an absent or neglectful mother but still has many unresolved issues over her relationship with her own mother. With Sis Pula’s help Mamello wishes to break this cycle of children raising children and release the anger she feels about what happened to her so that she can have a clean start with her son untainted by her lingering feelings of hurt and rejection from her own mother.
Join us as Each One Teach One returns with Life Coach Pula Matsaung as our guide and mentor on a shared journey of learning, for learners, parents and educators as we face the challenges reaching our best selves, learning from one another on a new season Each One Teach One.

“If you don’t want to be a mother or don’t love children pleases do anything possible to prevent having a child” 💔💔. This is so hurtful 😭😭. Let’s protect our children please 😭💔

Parenting is not for everyone. Please, people, if you do not want kids, don't have them. Nobody is forced to have children.
