Daddy’s Day is a rough one..so emotional for some people whose dad hasn’t been around…

lol..wow so bitter

1st

@ charles olivier -nope u werent 1st or 2nd lol

I feel for him… but he does anything these days to stay relevant… be seen… Time to grow up

Thats whats up

fathers are overated,its all about mumma

A part of being a healthy individual is the ability to forgive those who have harmed or hurt us. He should help his father get sober.

Lots of luv to you Bow Wow

n*ggas be real bytches these days! Bow Wow, Al B Jr and all them grown azz muh fuggahs DESPERATELY NEEDED men in their lives, to show them how NOT to behave like females… If you got something to say, MAN UP and f*ckin say it! You don’t send subliminals to your dad on father’s day…. how petty… ugh!

Misunderstood….your comment is very petty and real ignorant!

@Lynne R – that is your opinion, but I stands by mine. If some of these BOYS had MEN in their lives, they wouldn’t be so babyfied and effiminate. It’s a fact. This is not how a man handles an internal family conflict. I can’t help it if you don’t like the way I said it.

so a sad boy cant speak his mind!?

Wow, it’s so sad that so many of us men/women of African descent do not have the pleasure of saying they had not only a father, but an active one in their lives. When I come across the few people I know that have had happy upbringings with both parents, it’s damn near shocking, but mostly enviable.

Men swicth up real quick, but IMO, most women see the signs about the possible deadbeat dudes and still get pregnant hoping that will seal a commitment, which never works. For the sake of my possible future child, I’m going to do my best (like I’ve been doing) to weed out the lames and make sure the father not only adores that child(ren) but is a responsible and nurturing father as well.

yo its some dumb shyt to downplay how important it is for a dad to be a father to their child. how u gone tell dude to man up. he neva had a man in his life to show him how. AND black women need to stop making excuses for the sorry n*ggas. he shouldve put him on blast and like the othe rpost said he shouldve posted his picture….f sorry dads…. i had a good day so no i aint mad at black men. its truly sad and if you cant see it then you have bigger issues

Question, I thought Bow Wow did well in school, why is he writing like an illiterate? SMDH, that is so not cute. If you know better, do better!!

Seriously, who the hell follows Twitter? It’s stupid. I can’t wait for that gimmick to wear out.

@Mrs. Rance – I did have the benefit of both parents (primarliy raised by my dad-refer to Nas post on Friday), and my children are by my husband, so no, I have NO experience w/ deadbet men AT ALL. In my experience, men who have MEN in their lives do not behave in this manner. Their entire pysche is different about how they approach and deal w/ situations. So, in having been raised by, married to, and raising a real man, I feel that when you have one in your life, it makes a difference. I think they both needed dads in their lives, and it’s obvious in their antics. Real men don’t behave that way, IMO, or in my experience.

Children need their fathers. Men wake up. Stand the f*ck up. I wonder what would happen if we women had the luxury to decide we didn’t want to be responsible.

missunderstood what an appropriate name…..you need to really shut up on this one

If you havent had a deadbeat dad or your husband isnt one( AND YES “HUSBANDS” CAN BE DEADBEAT DADS TOO)please dont speak ill of someone who has….you have no idea or clue what it feels like, i dont care if your 10, 25 or 50 years old….it still hurts

If You Are Truly Born of God, YOU DO NOT PRACTICE SIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1John 3:7 Little children, make sure no one deceives you; the one who
practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous; the one who
practices sin is of the devil; for the devil has sinned from the beginning.
The Son of God appeared for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil.
No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and
he cannot sin, because he is born of God. By this the children of God and
the children of the devil are obvious: anyone who does not practice
righteousness is not of God, nor the one who does not love his brother.

This is something that we don’t hear about often. But it’s in the bible.
1John talks about us not practicing sin if we are born of God. So, why are
Christians practicing sin on a daily basis, living in sin, or defending sin
with “once saved always saved” doctrinal beliefs? Well, it’s because
perilous times are here! People are wanting what they want! They want to
fulfill every sinful or fleshly desire they had when they were in the world
and use God’s grace to protect them. But the underlying factor still
remains. If you are truly born of God, you do not practice sin. So what are
all these “new” Christians that practice sin born of? Well, they have a form
of godliness but deny the power. A homosexual that sits in church, plays the
organ, directs the choir, preaches in the pulpit, and carries on with his
homosexual lifestyle is not born of God. How do i know? Because the BIBLE
told me so. It says that if you are born of God, you do not practice sin!

So, what’s all the fuss about? People just don’t want to believe the entire
bible. How can you serve under a homosexual pastor? How can you allow a
homosexual to lead your worship in church? How can you allow someone that is
living with their boyfriend or girlfriend to hold a leadership position in your
church when the bible says that those that do these things are not born of
God? If you are not born of God, then you are of the devil, right? So then,
why are we allowing people to practice sin and yet be leaders in our
churches? Would Jesus allow that? Would Jesus allow a believer that is not
his kindred to lead his people? NO WAY! So, this form of godliness is not of
the true God, but it’s of the antichrist. To deny the power of God is
blasphemy and an unpardonable sin according to Mark 3:28. People hear me. I
know most churches are not on this page anymore and many of them are on the
prosperity page, or the motivational page. But this is in the bible. If you
are truly born again, you do not practice sin. If you are practicing sin,
you are not born of God and will not inherit the kingdom of heaven. Sure
we all have gotten off or may get off every now and again. But the beauty
of it is that true birth in God will cause you to overcome the sin of the world.
You will not continue in sin if you are truly born of him because to be truly
born again means that you are not the same and deliverance will come! So,
i would suggest that you be born again! If you have been born again and you
are practicing sin, then be born again AGAIN! Do it til you stop practicing
sin. You should never think you have it made because of eternal security. Be born
of God and there will be no question of whether or not you are eternally secure.

Suggested Reading: 1 John 3 in it’s entirety! (The NAS Version)

@ Mrs. Rance>>> You sound ignorant as hell. Obviously the two young men who you are referring to didn’t have a choice on whether or not their fathers were a part of their life. This goes for all people who were raised without both of their parents. We can’t choose what family we are born into. You are wrong as hell for blaming the kids… put the blame where it belongs, with the deadbeat dads!!!

OOPS!! The above comment was for Misunderstood… Not Mrs. Rance…. My Bad =)

Missunderstood

You are the minority in the black community. Ain’t that some mess? How can you be so critical of Bow Wow’s statement? You’re blaming him and his dad at the same time. It’s the father’s fault not the child. Clearly this boy needed his father. He does come off as a very weak man, but someone made him into that person. And that someone are his parents. Mom picked that deadbeat and failed to raise her son properly although I have no doubt she did the best she could. Bow Wow has always worn his insecurities on his sleeve. I just don’t get why you are coming down on him since you are that rare black person who had a loving father.

@lia

1st off – I never said it didn’t hurt, just because I said MAN UP! My WHOLE POINT was that OBVIOUSLY he NEEDED a father in his life, otherwise, he would know, as a man, you speak to someone face to face when you have an issue/problem, or just something to get off your chest (hence the term Mono e mono which means MAN to MAN).
Furthermore, as far as deadbeat husbands, – once again, something I don’t know about.

Shorty Mack

OOPS!! The above comment was for Misunderstood… Not Mrs. Rance…. My Bad =)
****************************
No problem. I knew you were mistaking me for The One who has it all and judges all.

I don’t think him putting dude on blast like that is sad at all. If dude is big enough to publicly deny, reject, or dismiss his son, then he should be man enough to take the criticism when it comes. And that goes for any man that doesn’t do for his kids. Most dudes try to use money as an excuse, but time is just as important. Show up!

BOW OW YOU ARE A MAN NOW LET IT GO.

KoolAid

I think time is most important. I don’t care if daddy is homeless and can’t give a penny, the child wants time. Toss around a ball. Teach life lessons. PROTECT. Money don’t mean a damn thing to a child and it shouldn’t. Many a rich dad thinks they are doing a good job just because they lavish their children with material possessions while remaining largely absent from their lives. Materialism is a bad thing altogether and is no replacement for a parent’s love and guidance.

When mothers day role around I think every woman who had a non marital birth should be asked to leave. She can come back next Sunday for services. No one should celebrate her type of motherhood.

…And ladies if an unmarried female ask you to come to her baby shower, tell her that you arent interested in celebrating the tragedy.

@Whoa,

“Men swicth up real quick, but IMO, most women see the signs about the possible deadbeat dudes and still get pregnant hoping that will seal a commitment, which never works. For the sake of my possible future child, I’m going to do my best (like I’ve been doing) to weed out the lames and make sure the father not only adores that child(ren) but is a responsible and nurturing father as well.”

What a wonderful idea. But you are going to get a lot of female in here who will say that they should be able to get knocked up by the neighborhood loser and still expect him to be Dr.Huxtable.

You can always try marriage to increase your chances of having a man stay around. Husbands rarely just take off.

@T,

“AND black women need to stop making excuses for the sorry n*ggas.”

No, black “women” need to stop getting knocked up by sorry n*ggas.

@Jade Silver,

” I wonder what would happen if we women had the luxury to decide we didn’t want to be responsible.”

Black females get tons of abortions. Black females are more likely to get their kids taken away by DHS. A disproportionate number of black kids are in foster care. Black females love to leave their children with granny. Black females love to leave their kids with their older kids. Black females love to leave their kids just on the block. SO yes there are a lot of black females who are enjoying the luxury of not having to raise their children. They just do their abandonment and neglect in a different way.

@Shorty Mack,

“We can’t choose what family we are born into.”

But black females can certainly choose what types of family they are going to have. So why do they keep choosing the ones where they are the single parent? Lots of other women choose the ones where they are wives raising to their children with husbands. Why cant the strong independent black females choose those types?

@Both of Kigali post
LOL!!! But that’s not right…

Husbands leave too….and there are a lot of times when the dad/husband is in the household and MOM IS STILL A SINGLE PARENT…..its takes more than a husband or a live in dad to be a good father

@misunderstood-just cause he grows up with a man “in the house” doesnt mean he is teaching him anything….

@lia,

“just cause he grows up with a man “in the house” doesnt mean he is teaching him anything….”

Just because a female is a single mother doesnt mean she is actually raising her children or raising them properly.

@lia,

“Husbands leave too…”

Well over 50% of all divorces are initiated by women. It isnt husband who are leaving it is women who are divorcing.

@lia

@misunderstood-just cause he grows up with a man “in the house” doesnt mean he is teaching him anything….

– you can say ‘just cause’ or ‘what if’ about a lot of shyt. First you say give him a break because he didn’t have a dad, then you say having a dad in the house doesn’t mean he’s teaching him anything.
Huh? *blank stare*
So which is it? It sounds like you are just commenting me because I am at odds on some of the other post. Please take that lame mess somewhere. Glad to have an intelligent tete’ a tete with any one, but stand on one side or the other of the fence. I can’t debate both with you….

any dead beat dadi that dusnt want bow wow is dumb and dead beat but ive met his momn shes playin the role well

How are you going to be rich complaining about your father being deadbeat status?

Why not just focus on the blessing that you made it despite his failings, whatever they could have been?

misunderstood….please be quiet!

Bow Wow….as a mother of two young men who grew up without their father, I know the pain that they endured throughout their young lives. Let me share with you the same advice I gave to my sons…forgive your Father and your heart and mind will begin to heal….until then, you will travel through life bitter…life is better than that! Once again Bow Wow, I love you and my prayers are with you and every young person, especially young black males, who have to grow up without the presence of a father in their lives.

@Lynne R,

May I ask what were the circumstances to why the father of your children werent around?

@Lynne R

misunderstood….please be quiet!

I will NOT be quiet. Some of you women are enablers, doing your kids more harm than good by giving them that “my daddy wasn’t there” excuse… It’s sad, unjust, and not the perfect ideal, but this is not a perfect world, and there is no sense crying about it after the fact, ESPECIALLY after you are an adult. (you may want to seek some counseling if your children are young so that they can get passed this issue and it doesn’t hinder them their whole lives…)

@ Kigali

I’ve been reading your posts, and it seems that you have alot of animosity towards black women…even though you might be a black woman yourself. On the comment you made about divorces, women may be the one to file the divorce, but it may have been the man who did the wrongdoing, defiled the commitment of marriage which caused the woman to leave. Also, there are many reason why a man would leave his woman, but that is no excuse for him not seeing his children. His problem is with the mother, not the kids. I am tired of balck men using that as an excuse for not taking care of their responsibility.

When it comes to romantic relationships going wrong in the black community, I believe that both sides are equally responsible, especially when it comes to children. Men need to stop making babies when they don’t want to take care of them, and black women need to start valuing themselves more and stop making babies with men who may not even want to be committed to them. Personally, I believe that Bow Wow had the right to be upset, especially when the father isn’t trying to be a part of his life. I’m just glad I never had to experience that.

Kigali-Interdependent
You would have to ask him…he could answer it better!

@Kigali, misunderstood, whatever… you are the problem. Forget bad fathers, single mothers etc. The problem lies with people that believe that it is their inherent right to judge others, like you were blessed with some innate wisdom that others don’t possess. It’s all good and well to log onto the net and comment on other people’s situations, but it is these very comments that lead me to believe that it is indeed you who received a bad upbringing, and not those coming from single parent homes. You have no right to judge that which you know nothing about, and take the bark out of your own eye before trying to diagnose other people’s problems and lives. Shut up, because this topic is clearly bigger than both your ignorant minds can handle.

@ misunderstood…you’ve made a good point “real men don’t act that way”…BUT they never had a father figure to teach them how to be a man. so he must result to boys in the street to raise him, who also didn’t have a father, or being raised by his mom who can’t teach him how to be a man…this is a national problem. These kids who call out their Dad’s on the internet have every right to express their sadness of having no father to raise them…since you were raised by both parents…you really don’t have NO experience or empathy for the millions of kids with no father…SOOOOOO STFU!!!

I agree with Missunderstood

@Chaka1…you prolly is misunderstood who changed the name to chaka1….

@ Kigali-INTERdependent Black Woman),

If 50% of divorces are initiated by women, where does the other 50% come from..It should matter who initiated the divorce, both parents need to be in their kids lives afterwards..

@ Misunderstood:

“@Lynne R – that is your opinion, but I stands by mine. If some of these BOYS had MEN in their lives, they wouldn’t be so babyfied and effiminate. It’s a fact. This is not how a man handles an internal family conflict. I can’t help it if you don’t like the way I said it.”

I agree with you 1,000,000%. You go!!!

@Lady J

_____________________________________________________
So…. hmmmm, you just reiterated MY WHOLE POINT – he needed a daddy so he could have learned properly the way to deal w/ issues as a MAN. I won’t STFU, no matter how many exclamation points are used!!!!!!!!! lol….

@Tagore –
Secondly to all of you especially @misunderstood…who say that this isn’t the way adults (MEN) handle things. HAHAHA! Okay look around. Everywhere please and tell me that this isn’t the way people handle issues. Capitol Hill, Hip Hop, Religion, this is EXACTLY how things are handled. We talk about people behind there backs, we are a two faced fickle society. So don’t fault the youth for doing what they are taught in deed and in word.
_____________________________________________________
the very thing that you just described is BYTCH SHYT-FEMALE SHYT, (backstabbing, 2-faced, talk behind your back, or indirectly – WOMEN are known for that shyt, not MEN, at least not REAL MEN) which is just more proof to MY POINT – HE NEEDED A FATHER SO HE WOULDN’T BE acting like a dam female.

The funny thing about it is, I am not disagreeing w/ anyone… Ya’ll just keep reiterating my point. He needed a daddy PERIOD. I just say he needed one so that he would’ve known better than to resort to this bullshyt and it’s all out war? lol… whatever.

@Chaka1 – thank you…

It’s amazing that everyone commenting are women….

“Well over 50% of all divorces are initiated by women. It isnt husband who are leaving it is women who are divorcing.”

you stupid African idiot. if the female initiates 50% who is initiating the other 50%? you stupid fool. you get so caught up in wanting to bash a blackwoman that your strupid dumb azz doesn’t even think about what your posting. you look like a darn fool. you crazy Zulu nut.

Keep on speaking your mind, Missunderstood.

people can hate all they want on black men but if you date a hoodlum u will probly end up pregnant and alone black/hispanic/white or whatever
So black women stop coming with those excuses black men aint good lalal.

DaHonestTruth aka Turn My Swag On@ u know obamas father was from kenya.africa

“DaHonestTruth aka Turn My Swag On@ u know obamas father was from kenya.africa”

and he abandoned Obama right?

This is what I was talking about yesterday in the fathers day post. Bow Wow is 22 and still scarred by not having a father.

DaHonestTruth aka Turn My Swag On@im african american so whats your problem i bet u are a white person

I was forwarded the below excerpt from a recent blog entry written by a sista. I thought she shared a poignant lesson:

“I hurt for my children who now had the same void that I experienced as a young woman yearning to be validated by a daddy who bragged and boasted about his relationships with his stepdaughters, because he didn’t know me. I searched high and low to fill that emptiness in my children, seeking only qualified men of strong character and integrity. The screening process was far more stringent for finding male role models than it ever was for finding a baby daddy. If only I’d been as picky about who the father of my children would be, I wonder how different the outcome would have been?

So my message to all the women and young ladies who one day plan to have children: If you want a good role model for your children, pick a good daddy. Nothing in life is guaranteed, but you can at least stack the odds in your favor that your children will have their own father around to wish a Happy Father’s Day.”

DaHonestTruth aka Turn My Swag On@ dont waste your time on kigali she just want attention

@Sydney™ – I am…. I got a thick skin. My DADDY taught me that…

To misunderstood,

Tell me…how would a man handle an internal conflict? And how would you know being that you are a female.

This frustrates me greatly. I agree in many ways with Missunderstood. I too had the benefit of a good father as well as good uncles and cousins etc. It wasn’t until I was older that I realized how many kids didn’t have their father. It’s sad, however, I for one can’t stand being made to feel bad because I speak up for having a good dad. It’s almost like those of us that had them are afraid to say so because we have to be considerate of those that didn’t. I for one and tired of hearing about it. If you didn’t have one get over it. I know it’s possible because my husband did. He’s a great father without having had the benefit of one himself. Stop whinning and move on.
Also, the ones defending this problem are probably part of the dang blame because if women would STOP HAVING KIDS BY MEN THAT DON’T WANT YOU, WE WOULDN’T HAVE THIS PROBELM. And for the record, if he won’t marry you, then don’t have his child…if you do; YOU ARE THE PROBLEM. Have some self respect. Then you raise them to be whinny loosers because all they ever hear from you is how hard it is blah blah blah. Make better decisions and you won’t screw up your kids. Now….let the hating begin. I realize you need to do so to prevent from looking inward. Bottom line, if he wanted to have a child by you; he would have wifed you. If he didn’t you made the mistake. Live with it.

“DaHonestTruth aka Turn My Swag On@ dont waste your time on kigali she just want attention”

i know but I’m bored so i have a little time. i’ll roll with her.

DARK & LOVELY!

“@ dA hONEST tRUTH:

WOW! IS THAT HOW YOU REALLY FEEL?

is what that ignoramous is saying about American black women really how she feels? ask the whole question……..

“So my message to all the women and young ladies who one day plan to have children: If you want a good role model for your children, pick a good daddy. Nothing in life is guaranteed, but you can at least stack the odds in your favor that your children will have their own father around to wish a Happy Father’s Day.””

very sound advice. its just so sad that no other race of women has to pick a man like she’s picking a President. no ther race ofwoman has to go through the motions so greatly to assure her childs father will be a good father to his child. I know some scummy azz white boys who think of nothing but their children. I knoe some broke azz Puerto Rican men who carry their babies around with prode. they don’t care what they can and can’t do for the kid. all they care about is that kid knowing who daddy is. its just so sad that the black man is so screwed up that he has to be approached with such caution that no other race of man has to be approached with. its almost like you have to approach the black man like he’s poison and pray that he’s really perfume.

@Lynne R

To misunderstood,

Tell me…how would a man handle an internal conflict? And how would you know being that you are a female.
– girl, you don’t read, or you don’t read for comprehension. I WAS RAISED BY MY DAD – for the most part. My parents were married till I was 11, divorced, and I stayed w/ him from age 12 until I was 16 and he and moms reconciled, remarried and been that way for 20 some odd yrs strong. The saying that a woman can’t teach a man how to be a man goes both ways…. My dad taught me how to think like a man, right up there in the top 5 lessons of life for me. I know for a FACT how MY daddy, hubby, son- would handle it – with respect (always respect) first, then honesty, and preferably face to face. If not, a phone call would suffice, or even a letter. I am not a fan of airing your family’s issues to the world.

He just wants some damn attention, tryin to be like diddy’s step son quincy…get a life, go record an album that’ll flop

“I am not addressing Kigali because ..I DONT BELEIVE IT IS BLACK OR WOMEN , IT IS EITHER A VERY BITTER BLACK MAN, OR A VERY SCORNED WHITE WOMEN!”

this is somehting else that baffles me. you jumped and said something to me but you choose not to comment to Kigali? how can one constantly ignore one comment but feel the need to jump right into someone elses even when they can clearly see its a direct response to what they chose to ignore. why say anything to me if you made the decision to ignore Kigali? who not just ignore me too?

It is sad – why twitter – just call your Pops. If you don’t respect him, leave him alone. If you need someone to express your feelings to about your pops – what happened to friends?

@ DaHonestTruth aka Turn My Swag On

Because I believe you are genuine ,and also have some common sense. Unlike Kigali
Nor are you bitter or spiteful just like Kigali
….I was apologizing to you and giving you a compliment.
…..While with Kigali I just dont give a damn towards IT!

To misunderstood
Once again, you need to be quiet.You are not making sense.Do you know the old adage…that children should be seen and not heazrd…. well this applies to you! Everything that comes from your mouth is non-sense. Enjoy the rest of your day!

@tgreen – i curse. So f*ckin what? Would you feel better if I was to type – MF instead? That has little to NOTHING to do w/ the point. It’s called expressionism, and this is a BLOG.

@tg – I agree…. phone calls are so underrated any more…..

well thank you for clarifying that cause i have never understood how a black women becomes bitter and angry for not condoming black men abandoning their children and speaking on it. its like are we supposed to just be silent on this tragic problem messing up our communities? it doesn’t help one bit to sit back blaming everyone else for what is the black mans problem and his problem alone. no other race of woman has to pick a man with the caution of touching acid and noone ever wants to discuss why the black woman has to.

______
WHAT is not making sense Lynne? My post don’t make sense to people who have a hard time w/ comprehension, as I have already stated you must…. what is YOUR point? I keep making the point that the boy needed a daddy so that he could know how to act, and that doesn’t make sense? No, maybe what doesn’t make sense is the fact that you had not 1 but 2 babies by a deadbeat, are hurt that he left, and are projecting that shyt onto your kids so that they can in turn grow into the type of men who use excuses as a crutch. Instead of taking ownership of their issues, they can just say I’m not ______ because my daddy left. Sometimes mothers add as much to the detriment of the kids as the absent fathers…. I wish more dads would raise their kids and let the mammies go on their way sometimes…

@ DaHonestTruth aka Turn My Swag On

I agree and cosigh….SO TRUE!, henceforth your screen name!

It’s must be a full moon coming, cuz yall are actin crazy as hell up in this room…especially misunderstood…i go to lunch come back, and misunderstood is still here arguing with erbody…dayum…what’s the problem. clearly you are frustrated…it will be ok boo…

@misunderstood
so you live in Tennessee? that explains your behavior….

“It’s must be a full moon coming, cuz yall are actin crazy as hell up in this room…especially misunderstood…i go to lunch come back, and misunderstood is still here arguing with erbody…dayum…what’s the problem. clearly you are frustrated…it will be ok boo…”

Misunderstood is holding it down while making some very good points.

why is it that the minute a black man is calledout for being a deat beat dad the person calling him out has to be so angry and what the problem really is? why can’t a black man be called out for abandoning his children? what the heck is going on with our race?

@DaHonestTruth aka Turn My Swag On….that goes for you too…it will be ok boo…

Calm down take some deep breaths….woo sah

“@DaHonestTruth aka Turn My Swag On….that goes for you too…it will be ok boo…”

yes it will. and you’ll come out if everything ok too.

@ LADY j AND DaHonestTruth aka Turn My Swag On

You both are agreeing about the same thing re-read your posts, before the 2 of you think your disagree cause your not you both feel as most common sense folks that black men are just to blame for problems of the black community and NOT THE BLACK WOMEN OR CHILD ALONE…it is misunderstood…that has her knickers in a tightwad.

i find it so hilarious that a woman would be the first one to tell a man how to act like a man, or how to be a father.

GTFOH.

how the hell would you know? A man can’t tell a woman how to be a woman, and a woman cant tell a man how to be a man.

you sound bitter ladies

To misunderstood,

Once again, you need to be quiet. You make statements about situations as if you know the facts…which you don’t…you blurt out words that you don’t even comprehend cause some of the words you use are not even words..try looking them up in the dictionary i.e. “babyfied”.

@ kigali

Since there are equal amounts in ref to the relative numbers of both white men, latino and black men in jail….I assume only the black men in our prison system are fathers …ALL THE LATINO AND WHITE MEN..THOSE WOMEN DID NOT TOUCH THEM????
….

There are arguments that nowhere in Bow Wow’s twenty odd years of living, there was a real man in his life? Why didn’t Moms find a role model for that boy? Boys Club the Y, Step Dad, something? I know, because she had that boy pimped out to JD. I agree with Missunderstood. Take you talk in doors Bow Wow. If you never hear from your Pops again, you don’t air out your business.

Only SHAME should be remained indoors.
So of course if you have a related shame of your own you will disageree with bow wow tactics.
….Since bow wow felt no shame in HIS it was only fair game taking to take it OUT OF THE D/L (down low)

and some of you women need to GTFOH with that black man bashing. cause last time i checked you was all defending them when it comes to the Chris Brown/Rihanna mess. Or even when the topic is on white women.

but now that it got to do with kids, all of a sudden the black man isn’t worth living? shut up chickens

No shame, it’s just that household business is not for everyone. I don’t need to know what he feels about his Pops. That’s between him and his old man. It puts him in a bad light to be twittering about him and his Pops relationship.

Strong Black women don’t want to be with weak Black Men. It forces them to be the head of the household.

@Lynne – I know that’s not a word Lynne. But don’t try to act like you haven’t heard it. It is common enough to have an entry in the Urban Dictionary, kind of like ‘conversate’, which is not a word either, but people use it all the time. What else you got cause that was weak. You still have yet to answer my question, What is YOUR point. I’ve state mine 4 or 5 times today.

@Lady J – Tennessee??? Naw, never lived nor do I currently reside in Tennessee… And I am not frustrated at all. I will however, continue to stand by the fact that if he had a man in his life, he would KNOW how to handle situations w/ a little more dignity.

@rachel – I hear you…and I’ll look into that whole “empathy thing”

@ Rachel…I don’t know what you are talking about…I disagreed with misunderstood, who stated that BowWow shouldn’t be using the media as an outlet to express his opinion about his deadbeat dad… I feel that he SHOULD and have every right to call his father out on twitter, as well as, use the media to express his opinion about his dad…is that clear for you now???

@This some shhhh… – we are here – —-><—-

@misunderstood…then it must be Texas…which further explains your rantings…

@Lady J – must be TX, cause it sure ain’t Tennessee… also, I’m not indegenous to the area, so I fail to see how my location would have any merit in this conversation…

indigenous (that’s a word too Lynne!)

Wow! Reading the posts on here actually makes me glad not to have kids. For the record, I was raised in a wonderful two-parent home, with the best man in the world for a father. I feel really sorry for Bow Wow and many, many other kids that are raised without the love of their father. Every child needs and deserves two parents.

@ lady J

I know, thats what I was saying , I agree with you and so does Dahonest.
It was misunderstood that got it all wrong.
I was already clear.
I co-sign with you!

I feel you sista. Keep putting that message out. A lot of folks may not agree, or understand, but the message still need to be heard.

Some people on here talk entirely way too much. Why is it always the black woman’s fault? The woman did not abandon the child. The man did. Yet, she still gets blamed for the man’s desire to leave and abandon the child. Shouldn’t the men who had a part in making the child be held accountable for their OWN actions?

Specific people here need couseling.

@Get Married,

The black female can never answer why she is having children before she is married anyway. Never.

Yes the man is at fault too, but can’t the “strong black women” that everyone loves to scream about have some accountability for herself? It’s simple and its been said many times, CHOOSE a man who is husband and father material. If he doesn’t want to marry you, why have a baby with him? If he doesn’t want to make a committment to you, why think he will make a committment to a baby? Now before someone starts screaming that I hate black women, you are wrong but I hate the actions that they practice and especially when they bring innocent lives into the world without a father. It’s the height of selfishness for a woman to willingly choose to sleep with a less than desirable man and purposefully have a baby with him.

@HAHA
and so is your momma

and this fag puts out a cd that nobody knew about just to say he st8….. selling out on his boyfriend O its sad

[...] in Bow Wow’s life lately. There was the public dissing by Angela Simmons, the open lamenting of his relationship with his father, and a general shakiness in his career trajectory lately. Maybe he was just having an off day, but [...]
