I am tshepiso I live at ga mmaphalle Limpopo province.i stay with Mom and younger sister. She is 10 years old I am 20 years old. Our dad left us for another. Our dad is busy raising another man’s children and forgot about his own kids. 

He doesn’t care about us. He doesn’t ask us are we okay, do we need anything. He doesn’t care about us .We tried to beg him for dad love even if he doesn’t stay with us, but show us some love because we are his kids. He will say we are mistakes to him, he doesn’t see us as his kids but the biggest mistake of his life. He regrets dating our mom.

I remember one-day I went to his place to ask for school fees money ,tjooo batho I couldn’t believe what he is saying,he said hurtful words to me. He didn’t only said those hurtful words –  he also asked me to leave. I told him I won’t Leave, he said I would count from 1 to 10. I said, do that. He did and arrived at 10. Batho guess what my own dad did to me?

O ntshetsi ka makhura ago Bela okare o kharapa fish ka makhura.i cried and fainted. I remember waking up at hospital I asked my mom what happened how I arrived here. She said it was your dad…I asked where he is now to ask forgiveness, my mom cried and said, my child your dad said he doesn’t regret what he did to you. He said if you dare goes to his place again you won’t go out there alive, this is the result of not listening to him.

I cried and told my mom that if I get discharged here and he doesn’t come I will hate him forever… indeed my dad never showed his face and I also kept my promise because he kept his promise. Daughter and father hate each other
