Nwanneka Tesy moved from Nigeria to Texas with her parents and siblings when she was 7. It was a difficult move. Immigrating was hard! The first 12 years were extremely difficult but what started to help her was when she tapped into her creativity and artistic side. That allowed her to escape the pain of being so far from her original home. Nwanneka speaks from the heart about the complexities of being parented by Nigerian parents in the US and advises anyone planning to relocate to be patient with their children and / or their spouses.
