A post showing a man joyfully spraying ₦20 notes on his mother during her birthday celebration, with a bright smile on her face, drew many heartwarming birthday wishes. However, one insensitive comment criticized the gesture, stating, “They sha want the money to be plenty. If not, what happens to ₦200 in few pieces than stressing their mama,” implying that the family was trying to make the money appear more abundant by using smaller denominations.
Instead of celebrating the moment, the comment chose to focus on material value, missing the essence of the celebration—joy, love, and appreciation for their mother. Such remarks can detract from fostering a positive, supportive environment, where the focus should be on the happiness shared in these meaningful moments, not on the monetary aspect.
