In response to In response to 28


  

          

>i mean, anyone who knows a single mother knows how hard it is
>to lead that life. even in the song, she mentions the bullshit
>they have to juggle just to keep things afloat.

Again, i don't disagree with that aspect of the song. I'm only mad that she called it a "badge of honor."

> i think its a shame that black men are
>ashamed of it, to be honest.

We should be ashamed that there are so many Black single mothers.
