It pains me that women allow men to reproduce knowing that the man has fathered other children that he doesn’t consistently co parent with. Stop the fatherless children being raised in the home. You adults know about contraceptions. Better yet “discuss” having any children raised by single parents. No man can do anything to a WOMAN that SHE Doesn’t Allow… Children live what they learn; “children will repeat the hurt and insanity of single parent home and divorce” ..SMH too much selfishness And no thoughtfulness of others lifetime of hell. A real woman manages a real “responsibilities” man. If not they both Must keep your legs closed or ????
