What went wrong?!?!

What went wrong in todays society? Is being a mother not the "it" thing to do anymore? the percentage rate for dead beat mothers is actually higher than then deadbeat fathers. Census figures show only 57 percent of moms required to pay child support 385,000 women out of a total of 674,000 give up some or all of the money they owe. That leaves some 289,000 "deadbeat" mothers out there, a fact that has barely been reported in the media.

What's even more sad is the women I come accross are just giving up not even trying to be the parent they are suppose to be. It's bad enough there are alot of children out here in the world without their fathers but now we have to add their mothers into the mix? I'm alot harder when it comes to terms with deadbeat mothers because it's our body we chose to bare the child for 9 long hard months to only give up and not try? Its a selfish move on their part. I had my first child when I was 17 years old summer of 2000 going into my senior year and I chose to have my child and I busted my ass to make sure he was taken care of and find it selfish, disrespectful and just pathetic for a mother to not want to nuture, protect, and watch her child grow up into anything they want to be in life. I cherish every moment with my kids I have 2 boys now 4 years apart and yes granted some days may be harder then some but I wouldnt trade them in for anything in the world.

The one thing I noticed is alot of these mothers have their priorities messed up. How can you not want to support your child but stay with your hair, nails and feet did, stay in the latest fashions and be at every party Monday-Sunday? This goes to the mothers out there that may have custody of their kids as well, but still aren't parenting their kids because they are gone more then they are home. I get it, we need breaks my boys go to their dads every other weekend and thats when I get my free time but every weekend? or hell some of them is even at the weekday parties, I make it a point to spend quality time with my boys, movie nights, we go outdoors and do activities, we have game nights etc all the little things that will make a difference when they get older, Im not saying all this to make it seem like im better then anyone cause I am far from it, but all I know is how you raise your children now will make a difference in how they act and raise their children in the future.

Til Next time
