BEWARE! HAITIAN PARENTS LIVE HERE

A friend phoned me the other day from Tennessee, during the course of our verbal intercourse, we gossiped about Haitian parents. She was telling me about her 19 year old cousin who's entrapped, cornered, locked in, imprisoned at home and cannot go elsewhere for college. I have friends who went to college, only to major in what their parents wanted them to. I've heard stories of Haitian parents fingering their daughters to find out if they're still a VIRGIN. Believe it or not, the majority of these so called parents are CHRISTIANS and they are utilizing their religious beliefs to dictate these young women's lives. I call them "HOUSEHOLD DICTATORS." A parent's job is to guide his/her child/children through life and assist them in making some decisions. So many beautiful young Haitian women are damaged and victimized by household dictatorship. At 19, a young woman is compelled to falsify her whereabouts hence she can find ways to her boyfriend's arms. Many ends up with unwanted pregnancies (protect yourselves) and they are left with two choices: Aboard the baby or run away with the boyfriend. Those who stays and try their best dealing with the abuses, physical and/or verbal, said they stayed because they could not find the fortitude to run away. They go through HELL with their mothers/fathers and now need healing.

BEWARE! HAITIAN PARENTS LIVE HERE, RUN FOR YOUR LIFE.
