A hi ntirho is a Xitsonga drama, freely translated it means: “it is not this intended purpose”. The monograph talks about a couple which misuses their child's support grant. The husband who does not even want to look for a job, keeps half of the child's grant for himself and gives the other half to his wife so that she would use it for the child. The husband uses his share to buy beer for himself, whereas a wife uses portion of the remaining half to play card games with the hope that she will be able to make some little profit out of it. Some of the couple's friends have tried in vain to have them abandon their wrongful deeds. In the last section of the book, these irresponsible parents find themselves summoned to go to the social worker where they are reprimanded. They are also warned that should they continue to misuse the child support grant, they will be prosecuted.
