ASKING MY MUM WHY SHE ABANDONED ME FOR 21 YEARS
Vložit

- When I was 9 years my mum told us she was going to further her education in the capital city Accra . It was a LIE !!! She left us ( me and my 2 sisters) to the USA.
It’s been 21 years now. In this video I get to ask her, why she abandoned us for this long

I'm Christabel, nanelle's kid sister and all i can say is my mom is honestly the best mom ever ❤ we love and appreciate her so much 🙏🏾❤️😭my eyes were teary throughout the whole video
Awww,God bless you dear
Awww❤
Aww😊❤
🥰
Sorry for all the hardships your family had to go through
Hello guys, I am Tracy. Nanelle's second youngest sister, and honestly my mom's migration to the states will always be something bittersweet to me because I was born here in the states. But without her sacrifices I wouldn't be where I am today. None of my siblings would be where they are today and all I can say is mom you are so near and dear to all of us. We love you to the ends and I am so proud to call you MOM. I love you plenty. Thank you for evertything truly. Thank you for sharing your story.
Love you Tracy ❤️
Oh Nanelle you got me crying so deeply this morning 😭❤️
I wish I can make same sacrifice for my kids... I have tried harder as a nurse but it doesn't seem coming for over 2 years.
❤️
@@shiktrastephen4605 don’t lose hope god’s timing is the best
If she now has her documents, I advise she goes home to see your other siblings. Time and tide wait for no man.
I'm sure she doesn't but we will all wish her well and pray for her to get all her heart desires. 🙏
Sometimes some parents forget that their kids need them and not their money always.
You can always make money but can never get back the time. 21yrs is too long. It must have been hard for both the mother and the kids left behind.
My sister left for the USA some years back leaving her kids behind, it was really tough bringing them in and she had to relocate to Canada. Now they have reunited after 7 long years to God's glory
As an expat who left my 3kids back home, I can relate with this mom. 🥺🥺🥺 But God is faithful, he will help me get my kids soon.
When you spoke about the lady who used to pray over you at school I could not hold my tears anymore!Mamas closing words were very powerful,we should learn to care for ourselves and our health.
Same here 😭
Same here
As a mom who has left her baby home to fend for the family, I totally understand mommy 😢. Dear our kids, please understand that We can't abandon you .we love you so much ❤
I came to the UK without my child and I almost ran Mad. Only God knows what your mum has been going through for 2 decades. God bless you mama. You are very brave❤❤❤
I can relate 😢
Omg...i busted to tears when Nanelle broke down . .and I've been trying holding myself bk ooo.....this seems like a therapy session for you and ur mum Nanelle..... most importantly thank God for life....❤❤❤❤
Yhh it’s been therapeutic
I can relate to some of her experiences. When i moved to the UK, I moved without my son. The lockdowns prevented my from going for him when i had planned (it took a full YEAR). It was a horrible experience for me and my mom took lovely care of him however the separation was a lot for me. And he regressed (he was 2). When he moved here he was 3 and needed to adjust. He's doing well now. A few weeks ago he asked me if I remembered when he "lost me".
Despite how much childcare cost here if we cant live here together, I'd rather go home.
Wow
Oh my heart😢 ‘when he lost u’…. That was how he interpret it
Uhnnnnnmm it is well.
Oh no😢
A friend of mine's son actually became mute for the whole year she spent in the UK doing her Master's.
My mom passed last year in Ghana, I’ve to be ok with not seeing her again. As the only child living alone in the UK, this is a big blow. Sending love to anyone going through a similar situation 💕💕
My condolences. May you find peace.
Stay strong dear
Stay strong
😭So touching. African leaders should be really blamed for all this pains families are going through just to provide secured future for their kids.
There are families prospering in Africa and taking care of their children in Africa. Do African leaders deserve praise?
@@py20, you need to ask some of those families what they are doing to keep prospering the way you feel they are, some of them have keyed in to the corruption properly, and some doing other shady things, which is why there's unnecessary killings and disappearance of people. Only few are truly prospering plainly. So people have genuine reasons to leave as not everyone can subscribe to such dirty lifestyle.
@@juliaemeh I have no problem with anyone who wants to leave; in fact, I have. But the fact remains that the vast majority of our people are home and not everyone is sustaining themselves and their families by corrupt means. People are doing legitimate work in Ghana and prospering and reaping the results of their hard work. FACT!
@@py20 you're only focusing on the financial aspect, do you know that a lot of people have left their good paying jobs to move abroad?
@@bolu101 Prosperity is not only about money. There are people flush with cash who are miserable, and such people can be found anywhere.
The only thing i am going to take from this is that i am almost 100% sure the non of the children abandoned in ghana will ever do the same to their children. They experienced abandonment and will definitely not allow the aame thing happen to the next generation.
Girl... You're making me cry too early in the morning. Your mom is so sweet. I see where you get your kindness from.
Thank you Jason ❤️🙏🏽
God bless that woman who chose to pray for the children whose mothers were not around. Really emotional 😢
Hmmmm
She’s passed unfortunately but I know she’s in a good place
I am so glad your mom is willing to understand how you felt. Some parents would get defensive and start listing all the sacrifices and the money they sent. We appreciate all the sacrifices but a mother's love is irreplaceable and both parties should give each other grace.
What I like most about this video is Nanelle's mindset, kind heart and great sense of wisdom. Most people are quick to criticise others without examining the reasons behind their actions. Nanelle dealt with this in a very mature way even though she was somehow impacted by her mother's absence. Thank you, dearest Nanelle, for being so gracious and considerate in this video; may you all find the place for healing and complete bonding as a family.
Thank you for your kind words ❤️
Awww missed granny. Send mummy my regards she got me crying🥹🥹🥹
Jackie nieeeeee 😂😂😂
Yes ooo have been watching ur videos. Charlie am proud of u I always tell hela. U r doing a good job but mummy’s own made me comment 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Even the reunion didn’t make me but her interview got me crying. My love to them all🥰🥰🥰😍😍. Tell Awoza I enjoyed his dance moves 😍😍🙈🙈😂😂
I cried my eyes out! 😭😭😭😭😭
There is nothing that can be compared to the love of a mother. ❤❤❤
My sis u made me cry, but in all mummy was struggling for you guys to live good and I no it wasn't easy but in everything let's give thanks to God. My little advice is that if mummy now have her documents to travel back she shouldn't wait for ur sisters to come but she should come to Ghana nd visit to have a great reunion 😢😢😢😢😢❤much love sis🎉
Yes she will
@@NanelleGriselda 🙏
This was touching. I've always wondered why parents migrate and leave their kids behind. Would love to hear the experience of each sibling that was left in Ghana since situations affect each child differently. The first child normally is often the most traumatized as they had to grow up faster & stretch themselves thin to support the younger siblings while going through missing their parents also
A beautiful comment ❤
This is a pain that needs its own name and research......because the level of trauma it causes is unmatched.I have experienced the pain of watching my father die tragically but even that pain to me is incomparable and much lesser to being separated from your child
Nanelle you got me sobbing when you talked about mom's praying for Kids in school.
You still turned out well.. God got you dear.
Thank you so much!!
Well done to who ever raised you here in Ghana
There’s always a side of the story you’ll never know until it’s told!
It’s not all rosy!
We thank God for both of you 🙏🏾
Life is full of so many uncertainty and risk, your mum is very lucky to have you kids back still sane and not wayward. So many parents lost it all in the end. Their kids end up in rehab due to lack of parental care. Congratulations to her and thanks to you kids too for upholding greatness
Very true
Well said. Thank God for them.
And thanks to their late grandma tooq
So true
so true… lucky indeed… nothing like a mother’s attention and presence
Nanelle, this is the time you also tell us how you bond with mum after some many years apart. Especially now that you have a child.
You’ve got all of us crying
Nanelle please she didnt abandon you and you shouldnt have used the word "Abandon" to title your video.
Hmmm. It was still a good usage as she experienced the abandonment part in real time that we cannot understand. Many of us had parents who were physically on ground but experienced same abandonment due to the serious neglect. So she had to grab attention for this attention-deficit audience online today for them to watch and learn. ❤
This is emotional and I didn't see my mum over 10years and I love how open your mum is with the situation and others pretended like it didn't happen
I can relate to this no amount of money can justify leaving our children we live to learn the guilt,the regrets thank God you have reunited there are so many families who are yet to reunite, it was very emotional for me to finally meet my own children.thank u for uploading this it helps people to understand the journey
Oh Nanelle, you made me cry here. I had to rush to my office washroom to cry.
Some of us had our parents but we never had the emotional support.
I had to emotionally support my younger siblings as a child but God has been good to us.
I do not blame my parents. They did their best and God bless them.
It is well.
Your mother is indeed a good woman. God bless her immensely and continue to keep your family united.
Our parents did what they needed to do! If you are African, you know. You know! God bless you mama, who knows, KNOWS
I always formed hard guy,but I didn't know when tears dropped from my eyes.I miss my children even when they go to school for few hours.I can't just imagine leaving them for 21years.The sacrifice parents make for children is not East at all
Hmmm
This got me ! God safe every child out there lacking parental care.
This is so beautiful, the sacrifices our parents pay to give us the best life, may God bless them. God bless you mummy
This is so emotional😢😢😢 but I believe your mum did the right thing for the family,
Nanelle. Thank you for this video. This is so important. Mother daughter relationships are gold.
This is so touching 😢😢.
May God see everyone through, the journey of life can really get tough sometimes.
I experienced it and did all my best. For my children not to even smell it. I came abroad pregnant with hubby and in 4 months paid for my 2.5 years old to relocate and meet me. Yes, many times they might not appreciate the sacrifice, but in doing so for them, i healed myself of the hurt caused by my parent leavingme with my grandmother. No one can care for your children more than you, the parent. My safety and security started to evolve when my parents came to collect me and my sister from my grandmother's mansion. Emotional security is far more important to a child than all the money in the world.
Awww, Nanelle what a great reunion and such a lovely mum you all do have. She has really fought hard for you all and still is. May God Almighty continue to bless and grant you all a happy family reunion together, Amen 🙏
It is well Nannelle. What matters here really is the reunion. Enjoy every moment with your mom from now on wards. Love you.
I saw my mom for the first time after twenty years this year! I can relate
Jeees Nanelle, you made me cry. I appreciate how open and vulnerable you and your mom was talking about this. This was tough!
This is so touchy!! I couldn't control my tears.
The challenges of a parent. Yous are so real! Its emotional but am glad theres harmony and hopefully no hard feelings towards mum.
You’re at a better place now.
Awwww ❤ Nanelle
I have lost my mum now close to a year now and I’m still here
Thankfully you have reunited now. Everything that happened was all good
I want to thank you for being a good and Beautiful child. Your mum is proud and I am very proud of you too
Awww thank you
Phew! Big hugs to both you and mum, Nanelle. This was hard to watch😢.
very emotional topic may you all continue to heal
I can't imagine I actually cried watching this video. This is so emotional . Thanks for sharing your story with us❤❤❤
This is emotional well done Nanelle you are strong
Mom & dad worked hard for you guys .Look at the luxurious life you lived in .Thry have accomplished a lot .You had granny stepping in .Some parents go & leave you to suffer .Aww bless mommy ❤
Your mum is so hardworking and i see that in you as well. Very emotional video. Hopefully, your other siblings get to see her soon❤
You're mum's such a grateful person
Just being thankful throughout the video ♥️
Thank you for sharing. Have been teary throughout.
I cried...love of a mum is like that of God to us...Thank you mum for all the sacrifice...Naneelle She is so proud of you...Thanks for holding on too...
Awww,sweet Nanelle don't cry....u made me cry too seeing u cry.....nice video,thanks for sharing
Hey Nanelle thanks for sharing. This really tore at my heart and made me shed some tears. Both you and your mum are really strong. Mum's love is unconditional. God bless you both😢❤
I can't control my tears. Mothers are wonderful.
Nelle you made me cry….. Seriously!!!!
I always felt so sad for when you told me you had not seen your parents for that long. I thought you’re a very strong young lady. This is Patience, from Tech hospital we did rotation there. Wishing you and your mum all the best!!!
Awwwww Patience long time ❤
Awwww Nanelle this is sooo emotional…… u are brave to put it out in the open!!!
Our parents do soooo much for us, more grace mama!!
Nanelle, thanks for this raw and difficult conversation with your mom. I really got emotional watching this. So glad you and your siblings don't hate your mom. God bless you and family. Enjoy each other's company.
Very emotional, I'm praying for your family and your good mom. For sure, it was a very good moment.
A lot of us went through this experience hence this video was very touching. We have to be grateful that we made it. Thanks to all who sacrificed and did something to see us through. God bless you Nannelle.
Have never been so emotional like this in my entire life. Naniel,have really cried listening to this interview. 🎉🎉
Awwww ❤
Thank you Nanelle for this episode. Trust me your Mom and your sisters are not alone in this situation. As an African society these issues are hardly talked about and pple struggle alone. Last week my daughter cried at school and i got a call i ddnt sleep that night
This is so lovely and so emotional to watch ❤
This is very emotional. Your Mom is a great woman just like you Nanelle. Much love to you and Mom❤❤❤
Mothers bond is massive🎉
Awww
So happy God made this reunion happen, God bless you mummy
You ask really relevant questions Nanelle. Thanks for sharing your life with us. It is interesting to hear this and playback our times in primary school and JSS. Thanks for shouting out Edith's mum. This conversation gives me a new perspective. Keep soaring.
Awwww Yaa Amanua … thanks for watching ❤️
Hi Nanelle, your story is really touching, and I've really learnt a lot from you and your mom. I couldn't hold my tears when you were speaking about your friend's mom who used to gather and pray for those whose parents weren't there. Kudos to you and your mom for sharing your story.
Easily relatable video for us who have parents left for greener pastures. Parents go through a lot to fend for their children for where we come from
Glad you reunite with your mum after such a long time. I believe, she has her papers now to be able to visit home, see the other children & heal herself finally ❤. God bless you all🙏🏻.
Nanelle I feel your pain, I feel your mom's too it's complicated. But in all we thank God to even have an opportunity to Sit and have this conversation ❤.
Awwww Nanelle, well done you made me shed tears 😢but anyway it worth it. Enjoy her before coming back. Mummy is glowing 🎉
Easy on mom Nanelle, 😅😅.
We thank God for everything. God bless and keep u mom❤
Awwww! Nanelle I’m tearing as I watch this video.. too emotional… beautiful mum and beautiful children, God bless your parents wai. She done so well.
Waal so emotional ,could not hold my tears .Things we do for our children. May the dear Lord bless your mum my sister.🥰🥰🥰
The human heart is the same. Every sincere conversation connects with the heart. I am happy for you, Nanelle for wonderful reunion. God bless your family 😊
This is so emotional 😢 Parents are going through alot to provide for their family.
The Filipinos do the same thing. Leave the kids behind for grandma to raise.
What you then get is a better relationship of kids with grandma than with their birth mothers.
Globally, more people than ever seek better lives outside their home countries.
There are about 12 million Filipinos (total estimated population - 109 million; that means about a 10th live outside) live abroad and more than an estimated 1 million Filipino leave the country each year to work abroad.
When leaders in their countries make their countries workable, their able bodied folks will stay. Unfortunately, the reality for a lot of migrant workers in today's world, it is what it is. The kids bear the brunt of the psychological trauma.
Awwww this made me cry 😢❤ thank you for sharing this with us
My BEST “BESTEST” Episode….Love you mum. A typical Ghanaian mum…Good Heart and KIND SPIRITED. May God keep mum in Health
So emotional that I wept and I am also imagining myself in a similar situation since I am about to leave my kids to the UK in few days . It is a difficult decision to make but the Almighty will see us through .
Girl I came from a TikTok video I saw and watched it to end loved it. You ate
I have really learnt a lot from mommy, you have to have a good heart and things will fall in place❤
Mom you speak very well English , I’m so proud of you ❤
Thanks for sharing this video my love. This is my first time to see you cry, I cried also, it was so emotional. Thank God for the reunion. I remain your big fan
Ooooo this is so emotional. Thank God for the lemonade advert. Haba
Waoooo. You look so much like your mum. Kindness runs in your family. Weldon ma'am. Thank God for the reunion. Awesome. More Grace 🌹 rgds
This is emotional 😭 😭😭 I give thanks to God for this day. Thank God for life and thank God that you guys turned out right. God Bless your mum and keep her always.
Thank you Nanelle, thank you mama🎉🎉. It's really a journey. Immigration is not always a straight line graph.I've been there too, left my 7months old baby behind and it's an experience I don't wish for any mother😢. Thank God we have reunited now. It's never easy on both sides
The ❤ of a mother!!!!! You made me cry. I am happy for you guys. A mothers ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤.
This is soo touching ,a well deserved family reunion
This got me teary Nannelle
God Bless your mom
Sending you hugs. A lot of this is relatable. It feels like my own life’s story…..down to grandma getting cancer and all. But maybe ABANDON is not the right word because you know she did what she had to do to make sure that you get a good life. Glad you’re reunited.
Nanelle, this is a tear-jerker, my wife and I shred tears. Thank you so much. Many blessings to you and the family.
Nanelle, you made me cry. Back then I thought those kids with their parents abroad were so privileged not knowing of this aspect of it.
You see
