Im Apologize for Letting It All Go
Let me apologize for venting like that in my previous post..my son's father just pushes me to the limit at times. So, I said that I was here to help so let me do just that. How was everyone's day today? Let me present you with a question to think about....Which would you prefer from the father for your child's benefit and why? A.) time with your child or B.) money? Before you answer I am going to ask that you put aside the feelings (negative or positive) you have for the father and completely think about what would be best for the child. Leave your comments and lets get a discussion going based on your responses.

I would say time. money can be made but lessons on life can and will be lost without time. I remember when i was 13 my mother sat me down and had a "talk" with me, she started off by saying that she was sorry that i dont have a man in the house to look up to and because she is not a man she cant tell me or show me how to become one and that i was going to have to find all that out on my own. Needless to say it took a very long time to findout and countless mistakes along the way. I would only change a few things but the pain from the lessons made me stronger. im not saying a young man will not grow up to be a productive citizen but i would have been bettter prepaired for life as a blackman in America if my i had a male influence in my life. It didnt have to be my father, but a Good Man, uncle, brother ect. Man will take his own path as to what he believes a man should be to each his own. But i feel it is the parents duty to Help prepair children for whats out here. in short, a women cant tell a boy how to be a man, and a man cant tell a girl how to be a lady. They need us no matter what you may believe thats why it takes two to make one...
ReplyDeletePreston,
ReplyDeleteThanks for responding. In response to your comment I agree that it takes two to make one. If that wasnt the case we (women)would be able to reproduce on our own. As women I feel we need to demand more from the fathers of our children who feel that they can relinquish their parental responsibilites just because the child is not under thier care 24/7/365.
I get money and no time. I would prefer to have time. thats the only thing money cant buy.
ReplyDeleteI would definitely prefer time. My son will never remember the amount of money you pay in child support but he will remember the time you spent getting to know him. You will never get to know the child by sending money and making random phone calls once in a blue moon.
