They felt neglected and abandoned. However, they have never disclosed their true feelings to their own children. Last week, he returned to his hometown to visit his mother. To his surprise, his mother was babysitting his nephews and nieces. His mother informed him that she had been doing this for about a month to help Farihah, Farhan's sister. Farhan noticed that this adversely affected his mother in terms of health and the performance of her ibadah.
