Many of our parents struggled. Nigerian parents came here for studies £1 to N1 and the🇳🇬economy crashed. Many got stuck n some left hoping to return

A lot of people told my mum to do this with me & my siblings. But my mum refused & raised us her but she struggled to get her education & work.

This is so interesting! You should read Hope and Glory by Jendella Benson! She delves into this and it was the first time I’d ever heard of it.

In the film and from the experience of some friends in the British countryside, the foster parents were paid which means more children more money
