It won't be, but it should be. Bad decisions should never be congratulated in general.

Hell, my broke arse married relative just told the family about him and his wife having yet another kid they can't afford and I refused to say anything positive about it.

We need to bring back shame and personal accountability in this society. "Only god can judge me." I don't know one successful person that has ever used that term unironically.

Also I dont feel sorry for the man that willingly walks into that one because they'd obviously have to be completely stupid.



He better have 6 figure salary though, because she deserved to be treated like a queen and she hates drama.

He better know that her kids come first and if he can't handle that he better not waste her time.

Sounds like you need to find another Jerry Springer family to be a part of



She’s the only descendant of my grandparents who has had a child out of wedlock. We all have degrees(except her of course), and are all positively contributing members of society. Definitely not Jerry Soringer type folks.

I never understood how people dont at least think about giving a child such as this up for adoption.

Is it costly? Frowned upon? I genuinely dont know.

No. You hide her in the house and tell everyone she joined a convent. Then grandma raises the baby as her own. At least that's how it used to work.

She thought he was the one, he tricked her, he ran off and left her, what is this poor girl to do? She could have had an abortion, but didn't. And for that she should be praised.


Or you know, she could have used birth control, got married, had their finances in order, and then had a kid. But I’m guessing she’s one of these room temperature IQ idiots who trusts her man not to blow it inside of her despite already getting impregnated at the ripe age of 17 and her previous baby’s daddy leaving her behind. If you had to boil down all of societies problems, these two are pretty much it.

Sometimes it does take a whole village to upbring a child


Decades of data says clearly that this is an exception to the rule.

By village do you mean taxpaying citizens who provide the 21 y/o mother of 2 with snap and wic benefits?

Good luck to your cousin finding a man to stick with her and her 2 kids from 2 different men.


All she has to do is walk in a pool hall to find a man to stick it in her.

I get interrogated at family events because I have the audacity not to share in their Christian beliefs, but it seems like I’m the only realistic one in pointing out the fact that we shouldn’t be celebrating such awful decision making.


It's not right, but this is probably because your family has hope for you but knows deep down your relative will always be a whore.

Yeah, stick with the exceptions and not the general rules and see how life works out.

Yeah, when that kid has shitty parents that shouldn’t have bred in the first place. And more often than not, these kids join gangs, sexually abuse one another, and generally chaotic. For every kid that goes to an Ivy League school with this background, 2,000 go to jail.

We actually had a come to Jesus talk after the first kid, since she doesn’t have a great relationship with her mom. Her daddy is a piece of fricking trash and walked out on her mom, but she treated her mom like shite cause she gave her rules when her dad let her do whatever she wanted.

They seemed to be getting along better and she was receptive to our conversation. Even apologized to her mom and enrolled in college. That’s all down the drain now.

I love data. Data is truth. The data says that children who grow up in single parent homes are drastically more likely to have all kind of bad shite happen to them compared to kids that grow up in two parent homes.

Perfectly good word that needs to be brought back, as well as the concept that bastards cannot inherit.
