I Couldn't Imagine Not Having a Solid Man (FATHER) in my Household Growing Up. Thanks MOM for not trying to do it ALONE.

My deceased father was a bytch ass nikka in more ways than one. I grew up in a single black woman home and had to teach myself things that I couldn't learn from my father because his bytch ass didn't want anything to do with us, all because my mother was with another dude. And he actually thought child support was doing something. I don't hate on black people that grew up in a household with two parents because we really need that structure.

The only good thing I can say about my bytch ass father is that he did good raising my little sister in the suburbs. Then to again, sometimes she can really be on that :mjpls: shyt and I don't want nothing to do with her.

Your mom chose him tho. :francis:

Grew up in a two parent household. Pops was the strict one. Mom's was the gentle hand in the iron glove. Pops was the one that checked me at every opportunity. Homework done? Mow the grass? Take out the trash? Clean up? But he was also the one that took me to his office (he owned his on business since before I was born), sat me down while he worked. He worked in the hood, served the black community (still owns and runs his business), took me fishing, etc. Mom's was the one that had the gentle approach, but if I fukked her in her eyes, I really fukked up. I never did, but there were a couple times she gave me the :stopitslime: and pops was like :ufdup:.

Which was wild, cause pops rode out for me once, I was like 12, and got in to it with some 17yr old, cops got involved. Anyway...he went to the kids house, me and my boy stayed in the car....he did his work and came out...and that shyt was dead.

A few of my closest friends didn't have one of their parents in their life, death, suicide, or they bounced. So their parents had boyfriends, and they had step parents or were single.

They never really had the stability I had. shyt was not rosy. We weren't the huxtables by any means.

But we had something.

shyt my boy, my oldest friend had both of his parents in his life, his entire life, and they are good people, he ain't shyt. Just lazy, dropped out of school. Can't hold a job.

Meanwhile my other boy that I mentored, grew up with his mom, never knew his biological dad, mom got married twice after he was born, stole his then best friends stepdad from her best friend....hes a prominent university professor. But he has one of those personalities he's just bound for success.

Parents are great, but I can't say they are the determining factor with how you live your life.

I literally am close to plenty of people who never amounted to shyt, are middle of the row, or are very very successful that had no parents, 1 parent, both biological parents, step parents.
