“No one is above mistake even you Judgina???? leave that girl. It’s not easy navigating life with no father and no Mother or senior adviser. Life is not easy for anyone. Nobody came to this life with a manual. Y’all should give my baby sister a break!!!! Talking like you got your life figured out at her age. Even some 40 year Olds still struggling, now add public eyes and pressure.
Before you say why did she go for the show if she can’t handle pressure, the answer is “hustle”. Cos everyone needs food on their table. She is razz she is razz okay!! Did she choose to be born into a razz environment or family?? Omo you guys ehn.
