#ThePolygamist reminded me why I hate polygamy so much…
Cause I’ve been a Mpume. The child that has to watch and experience your father destroy the family because all he cares about is himself.
The women who come in and out of his life because they think they are better or different. They get to walk away and start over but you can’t because you only get one dad after all.
Everyone is so shocked by the events in this series. Those of us who are older aren’t surprised at all. This is reality for many families: cheating husbands, secret families, emotionally exhausted wives… Hooowu! It’s often less about love and more about power, ego, convenience, or experience. Sadly, women still think that love will change these men.
