I Can Sell My Children - Aishat Bamidele

A recent Instagram post highlighted a woman who gave birth to six children, but was met with an insensitive comment suggesting, “Na to sell 3 keep 3,” implying she should sell three of her children due to economic issues. This remark is deeply offensive and dehumanising, reducing the lives of children to mere commodities. Such negativity not only hurts individuals but also fosters harmful attitudes toward real struggles. It’s vital to approach sensitive topics with empathy and support, rather than resorting to derogatory comments.
