kheyr allaha ku siiyo indeed, your post was not boring it is kind to stop and say hi or hello to somali elderly people. i work in an area full of somalis and always have little chats with people i recognise as deriska. it means a lot to them and i enjoy their wisdom

Somalis are not under attack but i hope neglectful parents would be. one of the main problems is relatives find difficult to offer fostering somali kids at risk as in many cases the parents object. Regardless of whether a child is removed or not, the parents retain their parental rights which can only be removed by a court order as Ibti and blessed said, in london now there is a massive programme to get somali parents to adopt and volunteer. at the moment local authorities aim to put somali kids with pakistanis or other muslims communities

And I will make sure inla idin xero if you bring faaxisho to my Xamar

Lol@picadilly lane Ibti will do well in Xamar.

Norf, i am xamar bound insha allah, imagine ibti in xamar:)

Babies are in season, maasha allah and mabrook to the old men:) waves@Ibti, so excited

salaam aleykum all happy monday

Aaliyah I did not even watch the video but I speak from experience and I know things involving this issue are never how our people nogu sheegaan I too once stood by islaan claiming her kids walaga qatey etc then came the day when lagu cadeeyay she put a sleeping child on top of bunker bed, lugta xarig uga xertay and went to a wedding Her defence his siblings were in the house. Sadly in the middle of the night he attempted to come down, wuu soo dhacay and sustained severe head injury I extend my sympathy as mistakes happen but neglect is something else. I just wish the kids could go relatives etc

Taking children away from their parents is last resort. There is a system in place that first requires the authorities to support the parents and safeguard the safety of the children. There are conferences between social services, child protection agencies, doctors etc Finally removing a child requires a court order, which involves lengthy legal procedure unless the child was removed by emergency protection order meaning isagoo in danger ah baa la helay It is ugly but truth is a child does not get snatches away from it's parents UNLESS...

salaamulah dhamaantiin Ibti you deserve the day off, you should take friday off Sayid, you come out markey qoraxdu soo baxday yaah?

I think wiilashu reverse psychology bey nagu wadaan! It should be us that refuse to marry them due the millege of xaram on them. In fact it is time somali women demand good,chaste women instead of a man who for the lack of better word is 'khaxba' hada bal waxay dhihi doonaan nin ma noqdo saas

che warheedhe london imoow and bring cadey iyo macawis gabar yar oo jalaqsan baan kuu guurin..................i can no longer listen to waxad soo qorto. it is time lagu ambabixiyaa congratulations to Mrs Moon, guur farxad leh! marriage is a project, put hard work and you shall reap the benefits

It is very limiting to marry your kin............ hi malika cadeey ii waran? sunny friday i wish i was outside

salaams everyone Ibti how are you hiding? miiska hoostiisa mise sanduuq baad isku soo xirtey?

Look it boils down to this... With ajnabi waa labadiina oo keliya, your jacayl, common hobbies and interest etc With Somali lakin 102 things you got to consider oo waa drama socota, on top of that your family have to approve. By the time you say I do, you are exhausted Raga somalida are kind, clueless and kind of yours marka as I said let's promote the home talent Chimera gabadha kaleexo intaan anigu babis soo qaadan

Abaayo gaanjibo waan dhaafey alhamdulilah! I really don't see what the big deal is. Qofkii dookha kugu daro raac balse be mindful of the consequences

Leave Narniah alone, Some reverts are simply yumyum, indhaha maala istiraa Chimera, you take Mo Farah as an example, fine brother as he is, he is married to non-somali it is all about personal preference, wiilasha somalida are marrying non somali left and right, cidna kuma qeyliso, do we argue that the pool of wax-tare is diminishing and we, somali women are left with millions of wax-matarayaal.....waa maya. haduu muslim yahay bisinka uqabo, hadii kelana wiilka somaliyeed iska biyo-biyeeso oo bisinka uqabo.

hi malika i do understand what you are saying, buying things because you are having tough day, or because you had great day/week and want to reward yourself the trick is to put something away, however little every month, but that all depends on your financial responsibilities

i guess it works for some people, it wont work for me. when i think hagbad i get the image of caruur la siinayo burgers only so that hooyo can buy business for aabe, or both can build dream house etc.

fiiro gaar ah = special notice or post script lately i am brushing off my afsomali,,,,,,,,,somalia usocdaa seeking jago

Norf, it is warm enough, i think we have couple of weeks before jaakadaha aan la jafjafan. Alpha i hate hagbad, i cant understand why one would need someone to hold their money?

salaam aleykum all, spring is here

f.g = fiiro gaar ah (lovely word)

Dont smirk at me ayoub, i say waxaad qabto sheego, since yesterday sarbeeb iyo wax aan loo joogin baad wadaa, now either move on or apologise like a man. i said restraint on my part and was willing to let it be,because dadkaan fahmin waan ka gaabsadaa and i dont understand meeshad igala qaaday...hortada kheyr lakinse wax iskula har. Ngonge sorry:) umad badan oo laqdabadeysan baa joogta meesha, waad kusoo dhex dhacday and i understand you did not mean that way.

restraint...........acuudibillah
