Poor people shouldn't have fun and look good huh?

They should always be sitting at home sad and saving pennies

Nah

I try to give people the benefit of the doubt but this chick is lost

Talking about the iPhone "only" cost $441 up front. $441 is damn near a month of her take home pay. That's a big deal....:and that doesn't even include the monthly charges of like 80 bucks each month

She has a tweet that says "women only call their baby daddy a deadbeat when he don't wanna be with them anymore"

One week later she's on tv talking about she's a struggling single mother

Her priorities are fukked

Yes some women deserve sympathy but not all

this chick is just a dumb ass chick who thinks with no education or redeemable skills she deserves a high paying job and wants you to feel sorry for her poor choices in life

I didn't see anything about high pay.

But regardless of her decisions don't you think an American company should be paying its workers a living wage?

Why are you so quick to demonize the individual instead of the system that put them there?

people have sex, they get pregnant. You should never make a permanent decision on temporary circumstances. I'd say she shouldn't have been having sex period.

Anyways. Can people not be struggling like this on their own? They can.

I feel sorry for her because we all make mistakes she is doing her best and I'm not gonna turn my nose up at someone because I'm not in that situation. Hopefully she can use her time off to find better work.

I think this sums it up perfectly. People make mistakes and she is living with them. No reason to take a shot at someone who is already down. I actually hope she gets a break and she can better the situation for her/the baby.

Some posters around here act like they all had their shyt perfectly together at 22 but are posting from their aunts spare room :lolbron:

I do not feel sorry for her at all. Why are people having kids that they can not afford? Everyone is saying it happened, so what now deal with it :wtf:. When you say things like that you are basically telling people, "It's ok...go and make stupid decisions and then worry about the consequences later" :dahell: . At no point in the video did the young lady state that she was being foolish by allowing herself to get pregnant at a young age with no type of stability. Baby boy has on Jordan/Nikes instead of $10 sneakers form Walmart.:wtf: The only way I could feel sorry for her is if the father was around and then passed away :mindblown:. Yes she is working hard to make ends meet. Everybody is working hard to make ends meet . I do not understand what makes her story unique. I can hit up downtown Miami and see people looking in trashcans for food and sleeping in empty buildings. She is telling her story as if she is supposed to get more stuff from somewhere. Uh, no she needs to enroll in an AS program that will bring in more money, and she needs to apply to a job that has consistent hours. The holidays are coming up. I remember working retail during high school and my job gave me way more hours than I could handle. I traded hours with a single mother that needed more hours.

I was given a lot better deck of cards then majority of the people I grew up around. I grew up with two parents who worked very hard to put the clothing on our backs, make sure we were properly educated and not in the streets doing dumb shyt 24-7. I know my life can be taken from me anyday, I can end up right back to where I came from in the hood. I guarantee you this girl wasn't givin shyt, neither was I financially but I had the family support. This girl probably didn't even have education support. I'm not going to be some Ole uppity ass negros because I luckily made a few better decision. You ain't shyt for looking down on this girl instead of understanding that 90% of us go through the same struggle because we have been victimized.

lifes hard for everyone nikka

Waaaahh Waaaaah The white man did this to me waaaaaah waaaaah

While I agree that blacks have been held back to some degree, you cannot continuously keep looking for people to blame and keep playing victim. The system is not designed for anyone to fail anymore. Its our own culture that looks at drugs and having multiple baby mommas as being cool and education and family stability as being lame. We need to change our own mentality!

It just come off as so weak when we keep blaming it on the white man. Are we that pathetic?

Anyone who believes in the supremacy of another race subconsciously believes they are inferior to that race.

Because to hold supremacy over another race means that race has to be inferior straight up.

These coli militants with their victim mindset i tell you.

A billionaire like Michael Jordan laughs at the thought of white supremacy.

You can see that word gap already forming. :wow: That kid is fukked.

She should get into the nursing game. Isn't that a smooth 30k a year after 2 years of school tops?

30k a year won't do much breh, she needs much more than that.

Honest she's gonna need a man to help her for a while, I know we look down on gold digger but she's done without assistance. St least 50k for a woman with kids. 40k can't do shyt for her that kid will eat that up.

What's funny is yall decided to scour through her history looking for fault. Why didn't you check into Mcdonalds history and profitability to see if she was being paid fairly?


99% of the people here commenting have fukked priorities.

So you think since she's poor she shouldn't have access to information and communication through her smartphone like everybody else?

I agree she is lost, but she didn't get that way by chance and that doesn't mean people shouldn't feel empathy for her. We are so quick to throw people in the bushes it's sickening:smh:

I know a lot of people are saying that she shouldn't have been with a shytty guy, or that she shouldn't have had a baby with a deadbeat and all, but...

I don't know man, I don't like the idea of society basically punishing someone for having a child. It seems kind of archaic. :yeshrug:
