Acceptable Feminine Goals and Traits: Following the death of her mother, Adunni is forced to give up her education to instead cook and clean her household. Her dreams of becoming a teacher are continuously scoffed at, as adults in her life instead tell her over and over that she should just focus on marrying and having babies. Adunni’s friend’s mother once pinched her ears for saying she didn’t want to marry.

Abusive Parents Tia’s mother was quite demanding of her daughter and didn’t let her have any friends, which soured their relationship. Tia and Adunni bond over having such parents but still somehow loving them. Ken’s mother puts so much pressure on her son and his wife to have children that she guilts Tia into going to a religious bath in hopes of having a baby. This “bath” results in Tia being lashed over and over to wipe away the “curse of childlessness.” She promises she didn’t know about it, but Ken finally cuts all contact with her for doing something so horrible to his wife.
