“After they voted for NDC, I don’t want anybody to call me and ask for money. None of them has ever sent me anything from Ghana for me to keep sending them money."
"No one asked me to go abroad. Even the one who brought me here has ignored me. So, no one can come to me with their demands. People in Ghana are also ingrates.”

Vera said that because she does not want her family to contact her, she often changes her phone number as soon as they get a hold of it.

She narrated an incident in which she sent money that was used for a different purpose than what she was told, and there was no accountability. According to her, this triggered her to block them all.

She said she would only unblock them after five years of freezing them out.

"In everything you do, despite the problems you are facing etc, never forget your family… It’s tough abroad but remember one day, you will need a family member for something."

"Our women who travel abroad don’t change their mindset. They feel pompous when they make money. They also don’t want to help with responsibilities over here. Also we cannot meet them too often to make decisions about them. Some of the women have misused themselves with so many men."

@damoahlydia1284 said:

"Ungratefulness and entitlement is deep rooted. It's not about the quality or quantity of what you give them.. but how some see what you give them, even if you offer your life.....they might say but they didn't ask you for that.... No medicine can cure. Just leave them alone."

Woman abroad warns family against calling her

In another story, YEN.com.gh reported that a Ghanaian living in Italy said she cautioned her family in Ghana against calling her for money.

According to Eno Serwaa, for the first six years in Italy, she did not have a job, and her husband was taking care of everything, hence her caution to her family.

She added that she did not want her family back in Ghana to become a financial burden on her husband, who was then the family's sole breadwinner.
