Cyaa believe seh a we a di new adults.
Who authorize dis?
It was just yesterday dat me just turn sixteen enuh, now look pon me.
Walking around here being one girl's father and another one's man.

"The market is perfect right now, Millennials and Gen Z are both looking to be homeowners"

Whatever that means.
Feel like dats why him neva too help me wid di Samir situtation.
