I think that the lack of two-parent households is the single largest source of problems among african americans. 50 years ago, most african american children lived with two loving parents. Crime and drug use were lower. Unfortunately, what we have are WAAAAY too much of are african american children being raised by BET while their fathers are in prison, gangbanging, or are dead.

When you do adopt this son he will be a very lucky child and hopefully you would start a generation of sons growing into real men. If only celebrities would adopt black kids in this country instead of flying off to Africa to adopt. We have needs right here in the US. I guess Africans are preferrable to African Americans for them.

Old school rap had a political and social message. This mess out here today is just tripe and gives rap a bad name.

You just had to say that now didn't you! LOL! Now I'm just going to have to do a video on my experience with this and yes my "little bear" will be making a cameo appearence. Tmotofga I hope you don't mind if I make that a video response to this. I can't think of a more fitting response. ~KT
The story about the kid who read the rap lyrics to his mom is a good one. I'll have to remember that for the future, when I'm talking to these young brothas out here.

1:31 is an understtement. Rap does'nt get credit for the conscious.

Mayhaps so, but that was not the point of the video. The point being made is that when two parents work together in engaging a child, they can make a profound difference in the path a child takes in life. But to your point, the consciousness kids may garner from rap (or any ideology) is a responsibility of guiding that parents have abdicated. So I agree with you on that issue.

I need to correct what I said. I meant that pro-abortionists need to know that there are people out there who do adopt children. They like to say that anti-abortionists don't care about children.

I don't believe in abortion, yet I would never stand in the way of another to do so unless they were in my household. Adoption or marriage would be the only option. Jesus, according to scripture never stood in the way of anyone doing wrong. The only act of violence he committed was when he threw the money changers out of HIS FATHER'S HOUSE. Seek first to understand so that others may understand you. TMOT - 2009.
