Parenting Chronicles: Baby Daddy Drama & The New Life-Pt. 2"

Men are in the hot seat tonight.. Everywhere you look, we are force-fed stories about broken, single-parent homes. Single mothers are the butt of every blame game there is from boys that grow up and reveal that they are homosexual, to promiscuous girls and juvenile delinquency. The blanket picture projects the image that African-American women are sexually overcharged baby-makers for multiple men who leave them, loud and raucous creatures who have no couth and fail at child-rearing, and only have babies to get on public assistance. What options do the women have who are deeply involved with their children, and hustle between jobs and refuse to leave their children in the mix of those negative statistics? What do they do when all of their efforts are met with futility because they are in a relationship with someone new, and that man is a loving stepparent, yet the biological father refuses to accept sharing the role and instead does all he can to make the mother's life, (incidentally that of the children), a living hell. How should these problems be addressed for the sake of a nurturing environment for the children?
