I guess black fathers, who are notorious for fathering children with multiple children and being absentee fathers, are more likely to stay with a woman they have multiple children with? I dunno.

Tell us about the father, does he love her, what is his job, is he responsible, etc?? He will owe her support for these kids, right?

This is why I think that some types of people should just be sterilized for the good of mankind. The saddest part is this child is going to grow up to do the exact same things. Of course there is no point in talking about that. The best thing your family can do is cut them out of your life 100%. Any help will be enabling your cousin to be irresponsible and she will never change. Talk, be family, but never help, always change the subject, and ignore the problem. If she can fix it, the state will fix it for her. Either way the kid is gonna be screwed up, but there is a small chance just maybe this girl will get her life together. Otherwise she is gonna have 5 kids, no job and be 30 before you know it.

hmm, interesting concept. I would assume that if, for instance, he has fathered 5 kids and just HAPPEN to father 2 with the same woman, the rest with all different women, then they would just see it as a coincidence and not of any concern. Then again, I'm not a black father.

I don't understand the logic behind it myself. This idea came from my mom who I assume understands the female psyche more than I. I gather that her primary concern is to "keep" the fellow that she likes/is in love with. She feels that he isn't satisfied with the girl-baby and tried (successfully as you know) to get knocked up again in hopes of producing a boy-baby. I swear the older I get, the weirder the way a woman's mind works seems to me.

Well he might love her I guess. He certainly didn't have any problems showing it in round two. As far as I know he doesn't have a job and that implies that he isn't exactly a model citizen. though I've spoken with him and he seems like a pretty decent guy, the jury's still out on him. I think the law mandates that he owes her support for his children right?

That's not women talk, it's retard talk. I would disasociate from these people completely. Your cousin is trash.

You're apparently lucky to have only met sane women in your lifetime (which is doubly amazing since so few exist). To use his words, woman thinks "niggah" is sick of her sh*t, interested in someone else, or for another reason is about to bolt, so she purposely gets pregnant in order to "keep the niggah" (the theory being he will be less likely to abandon her if she has his kids). Sometimes its as simple as the girl is ready for marriage, a house of their own, etc., and the man isn't, and she thinks this will help him see the light, so to speak.

Yes, I know it sounds insane, but it happens all the time, and is by no means just a "black thing"...which is why I found it so funny-I've never heard it phrased quite that way before...

Well the father isn't black. He's mostly fillipino with some small amount of black mixed in. I just used the phrase from chronic 2000 because it seemed so appropriate given the situation.

so you're saying that an insecure female is willing to engage in the miraculous event that is "child rearing" with the sole reason to keep her prospective mate who may or may not have already fathered countless other children? surely this cannot be.

just a smidge of sarcasm was sprinkled over my last post.
