    Children can give you purpose, and make you see life differently. It's a beautiful thing.

    I don't regret having a kid, I do regret who I had a kid with though.

    I see folks feeling some type of way about my comment. Truth hurts.

    And this is why I'm not in a rush to have kids cause I'll be damned if I have kids with the wrong person. That situation is all too common nowadays . I'm 29 years old I'm good on that.

    Im just waiting on marriage. I know too many of the homies with baby mama problems and I dont want my child going through that. And im not cool with the ready made families these women already have

    I'm trying my hardest to not be with a woman who has kids. I'm 32 and it's getting more and more difficult to find a woman around my age with no kids. I just can't see myself getting with a girl who has kids.

    I'm waiting on marriage too. I really don't want to be that stereotype of black baby mama.

    if you're over 25 with no kids then its obvious you've been deemed weak and natural selection has chosen to weed your lineage out of humanity

    And even more humiliating for men it's nature's way of informing you that you have a small ?

    Sometimes freedom is just the ability to not be responsible for someone or have that constant worry that comes with being a parent.

    You must've been divorced before, this sounds personal.

    But you can look at the stats and see he has a point. My mother was married for 15 years and still ended up being a "baby mama". There are no guarantees in life.

    I feel u. For a lot of folk it's the moral code of how they may have been raised. It was put in my head no kids before marriage.... seeing how single parent homes impact the community it made me cautious.... but as I got older the realization that the world doesn't have that same moral code... nothing is written in stone.

    Women from this era don't how to cook, are ? everything on dating sites, live on social media, and want to be like ? . Not to mention the old social diseases that linger such as daddy issues, depression, not wanting to take responsibility, being birds, etc. Some of these chicks are yamps, ? gotta be careful.

    And that's why I'm going international. The day I decide to settle down, I'm gettin me an exotic beauty that hasn't been westernized. Not them mail order brides. I'm talking those local beauties. Think Michael Corleone in the Godfather 2.

    Never said he was wrong that's why I didn't bring up the word marriage in my 1st post. I know how this ? works.
