A Facebook friend recently posted an article that I found...well...kind of sad. It is about a 29 year old man who has 21 children. Yes, 21...no typos here. There are at least 11 different mothers. He actually had 4 children in 1 year...twice! Personally, I find this despicable. How can 1 man continue to have children with many different women and still be considered someone you may want to "be" with? As women, we really need to be more discerning about the men we choose to share our lives with. It is my understanding that most of these women knew what they were getting into. In other words he never hid the # of children he had from any woman. The man is a minimum wage earner and by law the state can not take more than 50% of his income for child support. Some of his childrens mothers actually get $1.98 for child support.
So who is bearing the weight of this mans indiscretions? Clearly it is us, the taxpayers. FOr one man to continue to have unprotected sex with multiple women is abhorrable. And the women! What about them? They should be stoned.
There are families out here who are hoping, begging and praying for a child and I find it so dishearening that childresn continue to be concieved without any regard to their future. I recently saw a Craigs list posting from a family that was looking to adopt. When I read it I immediately felt for this family because obviously they are at the point where Craigs list is a viable option for them.
All in all its a disgusting situation that really makes me ashamed that this kind of behavior is tolerated let alone legal.
