Re: Talk about haters!
by Tinkrbl777

Thanks for your opinion . . . as a guy. We are way too busy pointing fingers instead of really discussing what can be done to aleviate the issues. Let's face it. Most out of wedlock pregnancies are "accidents." I would never call my daughter and accident, but I definitely didn't plan to have her when I did! And I also realize that what I should have done is kept my legs closed. I take full responsibility. I didn't find this article to be attacking anybody, but to point out the fact that we are accepting single parenting as being THE way to go. It's not. Again, some may not have the choice, and I commend the dads who are there for their children. Although my ex left us for another woman, I knew that it was in my children's best interest to a: Never degrade their father to them and b: to make sure that their dad had the time he needed with them. Their lives aren't perfect, but I believe they are better off than if I had taken my anger out on him through THEM.

There is the good and the bad when we look at these situations. Let's do as this article suggests and teach our children to prioritize and respect themselves!

Thanks!
