Kenyan influencer Tatiana Karanja was clapped back at a follower who claimed she was an attention seeker.
Tatiana shared a screenshot and from it a woman named Joyce was questioning why she never uses her house helps and keeps complaining of fatigue, “I never understand why you never use your households and stretch yourself so much to the point that you are always fatigued just to keep coming here to complain and have teary eyes, ama does it make you feel like you are the greatest mom in the world?”
A heated Tatiana told Joyce to her silliness to a different page, “Go and take your bitchiness to someone else’s page. The fact of the matter is you have no idea about my life or if I can even afford to have full-time help so instead of trying to understand or not understand me, why don’t you take time to understand what you are lacking in your life that you feel you need to try and make other people’s days worse with these silly comments.”
Adding that being a single mom was a lot of work hence the fatigue and she has to be there for the kids, “I’ve genuinely had enough of people like this. Listen to Nova being so unwell. If you think I’m going to use anyone to look after my babies to get rest while my kids are in this state, you must be mad. This is the reality of parenting. Things get hick when one of your kids is sick, especially when all they want is the comfort of their mum. Plus no one here knows anyone’s situation at home. Single motherhood with all the responsibilities of a job like mine that’s unpredictable (no guaranteed monthly income) means hustling hard to put food on the table and keep kids in school. Rest is incredibly important of course. But let’s not pretend that its always possible to do so when there’s so much on your plate! Do trolls even take a break even during the Christmas break.”
