"In the morning once I wake up I do household chores then prepare my child for school then take tea. If I have a customer for hairdressing I will attend to her then go assist my mum with her business as I wait for another customer then at lunch time cook and eat as I wait for my child to be back from school. Once he's back I wash his uniform then give him tea. After that we now rest or sleep if am sleepy as I wait to prepare for supper. "

"My top concern is not being able to raise my son and provide for him as a parent should because it will mean I have failed. Secondly my concern is unemployment because I can't do anything of my own and even make personal decision in the house or even buy anything. Lastly, my concern is achieving my ambitions in life of becoming an electrician so that I can be independent and get income. "
