Everyone tells her she shouldn't have had a kid, don't you think she understands that at this point lol
What can she do? Erase the kid, get a loan for a time machine and go back and use condoms?

The point isn't how she could have avoided it, the issue is how does she progress? I personally know people her (our, I'm also 22) age in far worse positions and the only advice anyone can offer them is "you shouldn't have had kids". Just goes to show its easier to condemn someone and be done with it.
Bullshyt. That broad knew before. All broads do. She chose to have that kid because she didn't listen .

Read what I posted again and point out where i implied that what she spends her money on should dictate her wages.

My post was very clear but I'll repeat it

"I want McDonald's to lay her $15 an hour. That won't solve her problems though."



Someone else posted her Twitter so I checked it out.

Will you sucker n*ggas stop crying about us talking about the dumb sh*t she said on Twitter and making excuses for everything? You acting like what we saying isn't the truth. :camby:
The point is, you and people like you are missing the point.

The system has trained you to point fingers at the individual instead of the situation that creates the individual.

McDonald's fat cats sitting in their offices with more money than we know what to do with. And we here are talking about whether this girl should have an iPhone or not.

Did you not read her tweets? The chick is obviously not struggling.

She can barely feed your child. Headphones should be the last thing on her mind. You support her not being able to take care of her child but buying unnecessary items for herself?

I bet she's getting $300 beats headphones too not them cheap $20 one.:mjlol:


That's because the American tax payer is giving her twice her yearly income. It's easy to feel like you're ballin out when most of your needs are paid for by someone else. At the end of the day, we can look down on her for making poor decisions, but this is a problem that affects us all. Unless someone has a time machine, focusing on what she shouldn't have done really doesn't address the issue.

Pretend that most people who have kids were using condoms, brehs.

:mjlol:



Ok, now this guy right here sounds like a white man. I'll give yall that

I don't remember her specifically talking about the conception of her child, but apparently you know something we all don't. :francis:

Who knew? All these unplanned pregnancies could have been easily and absolutely avoided. :ohhh:

Planned Parenthood bout to lose federal funding, you should start up an agency and scoop that, breh. Your plan of action is pure genius. :blessed:

How is she going to pay for online classes? :childplease:

Uhhh, LOANS? Just like how I can several million other people are paying for college.

An online education is going to get her out of poverty :usure: where is she getting this computer and Internet from nikka?

So she can afford an I6 and monthly cellphone bill, but can't buy a $400 laptop and a monthly internet service?

See this that shyt I'm talking about. Yalls fukking lame ass excuses for stupidity and misplaced priorities.

Yup. And rich McDonald's execs win in the end.

Food stamps, wic, pell grants, are all just subsidies for corporations to be able to take advantage of worker/customers.

Yet people would sooner shyt on the person with no power in the situation, than they would go after the people who have the power to change it.

Dudes are really in here pretending that people are having all these babies because of faulty condoms @Emperor_ReinScarf

You can't make this stuff up breh :mjlol:

You earned that woat banner, you don't know what the fukk you're talking about

I already said her wages should be doubled. She doesn't know how to budget or prioritize so 15 an hour won't really do much for her if she doesn't change

You got your cape on for her but this chick is smarter than you. If you look at her tweets it's clear she understands the difference between a good man and a man who ain't sh*t

She made some mistakes and put herself in a bad situation. She was fully aware of what she was doing.

Stop treating her like she's mentally handicapped

Truth and logic
If you have unprotected sex with a chick who isn't on birth control then you chose to have kids

Controlling when you have kids is actually one of the easiest things to do.

I have a harder time getting to work on time than I do avoiding having kids

Again, can we be responsible for anything?

Why do people focus on "unprotected sex" as if that is the issue? When in fact the issue is sex without commitment, loyalty, or any intentions of responsibility towards that person.

But I guess if you challenged people to not have sex recreationally and in fact accept the real responsibilities that come with sex, then a lot of folks would be knocked off their high horses.

Can we accept the responsibility of NEVER having sex with anyone who we would not want to procreate with? Can we accept the responsibility that sex comes with commitment and when you try to separate it, you end up with the hell you see today? Can we accept that responsibility?

No one should be telling her that she should have had "protected sex" unless that protection comes with a commitment with a man who wants to build a family.

And that's just pointing out the ridiculous hypocrisy in your posts.

Thank you! I was reading both posts, made within the same minute, like :leostare:

None of it is 100%

World is full of babies conceived during "safe" sex

My youngest was conceived while I was on depo AND we were using condoms. MOST pregnancies are unplanned.


But why are people tripping over her phone and the baby's shoes? More than likely they were gifts. All four of my kids, 15 to 2, each have at least two pairs of Jordan's and the three oldest got iphones/pads/pods and I never bought them a single one. I can afford to, I just won't buy overpriced shyt. Their relatives do though.

Not at all

I want her to do better and I want McDonalds to pay her more money

I'm just smart enough to know that doubling her pay won't solve her problems

I can literally find a way to pass blame to the white man for just about every problem in America, but got damn, it's nothing wrong with a little accountability every once in a while.

Youre from the burbs and I'm from the hood. You know what you see on cnn specials, I grew up around this.
:russ:

We resorting to coli street cred now?

I gotta flash my credentials in this bytch? :martin:

You're a good OG poster and fellow Kobe stan but you sounding hella immature in here.

Properly used condoms have a 98% success rate

Properly used birth control has a 99+% success rate

If people won't stop having unprotected sex with strangers than they damn sure won't be abstinent

How about you just put on a condom or take your birth control?

What is done is done. Therefore discussing the gym shoes on her sons feet is not going to help her situation at all. It is completely unproductive when you don't even know if she was the one who bought the shoes.

What is productive is discussing solutions for her given her current circumstances. That can be done in a way that is not degrading or dehumanizing.

You shouldn't be on such a high horse as supporting the murdering your own children is a far worse sin than having unlawful sex. You need to worry about why your own actions have been completely irresponsible. You think that killing your babies gets you off the hook but it doesn't. Your reckless sexual behavior is just as foolish as hers. No one should be having sex with the notion that it is free, casual, and comes without responsibility.
No,its not done. Some dumb broad is fukking some loser without a job right now, taking in all his nut. Stop enabling.

Hell
we are in america though and we Americans mostly don't have the culture to look poor and still get acceptance, only Hispanics and some other foreign groups can do that.

So I don't expect a american girl to shop at marshals and the thrift shop with a smile on her face, and usually when I go there it's mostly old people and foreigners.

Let's not act like western culture doesn't have some blame on this.

If she was Hispanic she'll be at McDonalds with a husband working fries and going to school off government dime.

She's black so she's with a nikka behind bars and them crackkas stick the camera in her face.
