Personal experience. Will change the details of it kidogo to preserve anonymity.
My baba mdogo passed about 10yrs ago leaving 3totos. Relas tried to lift this family from poverty and a decision was made to move them to upcountry and have them live in their fathers simba. Life was hard and poverty went on. The woman could not farm...neigbours fed them with mabakishi. All we heard was they are doing fine but the woman was lazy. With time even the woman's family couldn't stand them.
So one day family close to me passed by to say hallo and she couldn't believe the stunted growth. We mobilized first born to boarding school and called a family meeting to discuss how to atleast get these people from being eaten by those chicken dudus.
Fasf fwd we mobilized some funds, built a small 2bd hse, meanwhile in the 3 yrs mama has added 2 totos.
Change from our mobilized resources got the lady furniture and we had her move. 2 bd hse, chicken hse, outside kitchen and toilet. Hse has inside kitchen abd toilet too.
One day after moving, i find a txt from her saying shes grateful but now she wants capital...what? I called my aunt and told her to explain to her capital is chicken hse she can sell chicken and eggs.
1born passes, called to a nat sch in embu, goes through fm1 but does terrible, parent is called she says she cant go. So we get her to a local day sch.
2nd born passes called to a nat sch in Muranga year 1 we provided fare. Yr2 we asked her if she can now use some of the eggs money to go to visiting days etc, we still pay fees and buy uniform this is because when we went to visit during xmas, we found a dog eating eggs. She was out roaming in the market. She sent a msg saying that we can take the gal out of that sch and take her to day sch. Ps 1st born did poorly form 4 and we don't know what to do with her. The matharau this ungreateful woman has showed us wacha tu. Entitlement is very present with Kenyans
