SOME PROBLESM THAT CAN CROP UP IN POLYGAMY

MAFOR EDWAN`S SCENARIO FOR POLYGAMY Once there was a tussle between children in a family. The mother of the family got there before the father. When she found it was their children fighting and trading violent insults, she turned round and called out to the husband who was out of sight: “Darling! Darling! Come quickly! Your children and my children are fighting our children!” What the woman actually meant was: “Darling, the children I had before getting married to you and the ones you had before getting married to me have joined forces and are fighting those children had together since we got married.” So here, there are three different sets of children. This story was recounted to me by Edwan in Bambili years ago. HAPPY NEW YEAR!
