Are you sure you want a man that is such a POS to be a strong influence on your grandson?
I’ve known some that the kids were definitely better off because their parents were not involved at all.
He’s an idiot at times but the last year and a half has seen him turn his life around. 2 years ago, I encouraged him to stay away. Today, I’m encouraging a relationship. He has always been a decent guy that makes really stupid decisions. Today, he’s making better choices and following the rules and taking advice.

And … ?
And would there be no complicity on the part of the behavior of blacks?
What you just replied to me is a far cry from “… police are shooting unarmed black men and women…” It’s what I was suggesting. When the dramatic language (from either side) tones down, the opposing sides will be more willing to see the faults on their own side.
Sad thing is that those are the kind of dudes women want these days. A guy that sits at home with them all the time and doesn’t do jack ■■■■■
Men like me, who work 50-60 hours per week. They don’t want us anymore. Which is why I’ve started talking to women 10 to 15 years older than me. Which is fine don’t get me wrong, got no issues with 45 year old women. But my mom is only 52 so it does make me feel weird.
I can’t bother or waste my time with anyone selectively editing my quotes to address what they see fit.

I was sincerely trying to help you.
Just how many “for profit prisons” are there in the US? What percentage of black inmates are housed in them?
You’re not helping me though. Carry on, Guv.
Nobody selectively edited your statements, if they had that’s a serious offense and needs to be reported.
They only people trying to destroy the black community and having any effect on them are democrats and “the black community”.

why are asians doing better economically and educationally than blacks?
They prioritize stable family structures. They enforce discipline in education. Their 15 year old kids aren’t running around with gangs in the streets. Mr. Lee of Korean descent is leading his household.
It all starts at home. All the “assistance” in the world won’t fix the issue of fatherless homes.
Hate to say this, but black culture doesn’t prioritize stable nuclear families today. It’s always been a little more loose than the rest of the country’s population. But today? It’s simply out of control.
When a young boy grows up in that environment, he thinks that’s normal. “I get this girl pregnant, who cares? I pay some child support at worst.”
White folks aren’t far behind. The numbers are getting worse all the time. Modern white American culture is accepting deadbeat fathers too.
Mississippi is rampant with it. Almost every girl I’ve talked to with a kid or kids, most of whom were white, the father isn’t around. That goes for the mixed kids and the all white kids. The dudes knock them up, stick around for a few months, and then jet.
If we wanna boil down a lot of our cultural issues in this country, that’s it. American men aren’t being men.
All you have to do is raise your children. Figure it out as go along. And most people can’t even do that anymore.
Not gonna let women off the hook either. Most of the time you can tell when a guy is a deadbeat and is going to split. Don’t have a kid with him. Hell don’t do anything with him. These dudes aren’t hard to spot. If they’re 25 and never had a job and all they do is lay on their ass all day, guess what? They’re gonna split.

by the way…one man’s opinion of your previous post about the kind of men women want.
it isnt that they don’t want a man who works 50 - 60 a week, it’s that if you are working those hours, they think you dont want them.

Reread what I wrote. What I pulled out of your reply I spoke positively about. You gave a great middle ground, a far cry from your previous extreme language.
You CAN do it.
We all can.
