There are insidious traits or attributes you gift
your unborn right on the very day amen goes on his knees to propose OR that day
you say I DO!
Its high time we understood the gimmicks, don’t make
mistakes generations to come will blame you for!
Now don’t grab any popcorn, You won’t like these,
trust me! As you may wanna have a rethink on that damsel, on that cute guy!
1. Dad/Mom:
yes, you heard me right. I know you are saying “and so?” right now but darling,
there is more to it. Now sit down and relax. Think of it from this perspective,
children don’t in any way determine no attribute of their parents. They arrive
this cruel world with their parents wrapped in a package, until they are of
age, that is when the gift gets unwrapped and then they realize their father is
tall, fat, hairy etc.
Don’t be deceived,
unlike children, your children aint no package because you can before hand
predict the possible genetic xteristics and phenotypes of your child; it aint
far fetched. In most cases if its not majorly from you, it is from your spouse
or your parent/spouse’s parents. Now to the crux of the matter, if you marry an
intelligent wife, trust me, there is a 50% chance your kid is intelligent, this
is a genetic case. However not, don’t be deceived by mthe statement - “phenotypic
characters aint transferrable”, if the mother or father of your spouse is lazy,
dirty, short-tempered or wayward, there is equally a chance your kids inherit
some if not all. So, by now I hope you know the choice of your mate is not
directly affecting you alone, it does affect your kids too, even your family
members. You don’t want the father of your child disrespecting your very own father!
If children were to be
given a chance to call through to their dads on the day of proposal, I know
some kids will yell “Dad, get the bleep off your knee, I don’t want that kinda
mother”. This could be in the other way though.
2. Rhesus Factor:
this is a very sensitive question, I need your maximum attention. Do you remember
those days when men were men, ladies were virgins and stones were used for
igniting fire, civilization was at its lowest. There is this term in my
language called “ABIKU”. Abiku(s) are referred to as child(ren) given birth to during
a condition where the mother goes through many consecutive still births or
perhaps birth them alive but give up the ghost in short periods. This mostly
occurs after a successful first child has been born. So the general belief is
that when one child dies, it is that same child that’s gonna reincarnate and
enter the mother’s womb to be born again and die; the process continues.
This is nothing but a
sham! As much as I wouldn’t wanna go all “geeky” on you, I still have to let
you in on some terms. Rhesus factor is that + or – thing written beside your
blood group. Rhesus factor is a protein present on the surface of red blood
cells. Not everyone has it, if you have, you are +ve, else, -ve. When a rhesus
+ve man decides to marry a –ve woman, this condtion most times occurs as the
child unborn may either inherit the rhesus or not. But when the child does, the
first pregnancy may be successfully carried and delivered by the mother, but
subsequent ones can surely be unpredictably fatal. The –ve mother when carrying
a positive child, her body senses (Rh sensitization) the protein in the baby’s
blood as “harmful objects” hence develop antibodies against her own unborn.
This may terminate the pregnancy and even if the child survives till birth,
thre could be complications as – yellowing of the skin and whites of the eyes (jaundice).
This explains the condition when you see some individuals with very yellow
eyes, you can hardly distinguish the whiote part of the eyes from the black
part. Although this is avoidable via vaccines.
But why let love blind
you to let your kids go through this? Your child may be a born model, this
kinda condition shatters he/her dreams.
3. Genotype:
I won’t say more on this, if you still want your children to bear the
unimaginable pains and stigmas attached to the hemoglobin SS/SC go through, don’t
bother before you propose or accept that proposal. If you questions, pm or
quote me here.

4. Look/Beauty:
easily said, marry a beauty deficient man/woman and probably reduce the chances
your kids are gonn be cute! Listen well, everything is but built on chance. Why
not increase your luck by marrying a cute spouse? I aint saying BBs (beauty
without brains) o.
5. Family diseases:
I have to use that layman word. Yes, I respect our ancestors on this. In the
olden days, you cannot just pick a random girl to present to your parent for
marriage like we do today, NO! Our ancestors then must know their family
lineage, at least four generations from your spouse’s. this is not because they
are selfish or strict, they wanna know if such family breeds certain illnesses
or conditions. Our ancestors may not be penned, but I give them this. I wont go
into details but I believe you understand this, before you buy that ring, do
your background check
