John Singleton caught a lot of heat for that character. I thought some of the criticism was valid, but some of it went overboard. Angela Basset and Nia Long's characters were counter balances to her, to me.Such a worthless character. She blamed Doughboy for everything but never herself from not putting her children in a better neighborhood to begin with. One son got shot, the other son got caught up in the streets then shot. And had no father to help steer them to adulthood. They never had a chance to begin with.
The mom treated the sons based on the relationships they had with their fathers. I saw this from being around friends growing up.....and saw it with female cousin later in life. (and called her on it)Sad shyt.
But....you're blaming rick/Dough's mom for them living in that neighborhood? Same neighborhood that successful, stable Furious Styles lived in?
