A person who finds it hard to refuse others is a really handy person.
You can dump a lot of work on him, he won't say no to loved ones, always come to the rescue, give help, lend money.

What to do?
Start with a small, very first "no":exclamation:

And then, it's worth continuing, asserting this skill:arrow_up_small:
:heavy_check_mark: Give yourself permission not to be "all good." Give yourself permission to act in your own best interest.
:heavy_check_mark: Practice saying "no" to strangers - store clerks, waiters, neighbors.
:heavy_check_mark: Choose a form of rejection that is acceptable to you. Sharp, soft, humorous or serious - there are many options.
:heavy_check_mark: Fear of rejection is the fear of being judged. Judged, so what? It's just the opinion of others...

Sure, there will be people who won't accept you with your "no," even those close to you won't like it. But those who care about you, who want to be there for you, who respect you, will always be around.

But why? He was only 18…

Barely Seven months after my son traveled to Latvia, Northern Europe, to study Electrical Engineering. He began complaining about racism. He said he was being targeted, and treated badly. As parents, we advised him to finish his exams and return home so we could reassess everything together.

Barely Seven months after my son traveled to Latvia, Northern Europe, to study Electrical Engineering. He began complaining about racism. He said he was being targeted, and treated badly. As parents, we advised him to finish his exams and return home so we could reassess everything together.

Then one day, we received a disturbing voice note from him.

He said some classmates approached him, claiming they did not agree with how others were treating him and wanted to be friends. They exchanged phone numbers, and later, these same classmates came to visit him. During the visit, they offered him a drink.

After taking the drink, he began to feel unwell.

He rushed himself to the hospital, where he was told that he had been poisoned. Thankfully, he was treated and discharged. Before leaving the hospital, he shared with his mother the names of the individuals who had given him the drink.

Because of the seriousness of the situation, we immediately booked a flight for him to return home the following week.

But a few days later, something changed.

Our calls were no longer going through. He stopped answering his phone. We became extremely worried.

Then one day, someone finally picked up.

It was a police officer.

And that was when we were told the words no parent should ever hear, our son was dead.

I flew to Latvia immediately, when I arrived and saw his body, it was covered in bru!ses.

Yet we were told that he had jumped from the top floor. This explanation does not add up, and we definitely do not believe this story.

This is the true story of #NanaAgyei, a young man whose life was cut short, and whose Ghanaian parents are now seeking Justice.

NB: Please hastag #NanaAgyei's Life Matters, #EndRacism #Latvia #Justice.
