*** Should Single Mothers be Acknowledged on Father's Day?

[usmarin3]

Why. Most fathers don't get acknowledge for shit other than getting the big piece of the chicken.

I just don't think fathers even get acknowledge by society in general. Men are expected to go to work and provide the financial support for the family while the woman who raises the kid gets the credit for raising the children. What do fathers get for fathers day other than a neck tie or some stupid shit like that. Meanwhile Hallmark pushes the mothers agenda way harder than fathers get.

Should a single father be aknowleged on Mother's Day, Would he even want to be?

 

[_Lefty]

That's what mothers day is for. And anyway, that shit petty, I don't know no real, thorough, Claire Huxtable type of single mother runnin around tryin to get shine on fathers day. That's that attention whore shit. They know their worth already and a holiday ain't changin nothin. Should they get acknowledged? I think anytime to love my mom is a good time, but going out and soliciting it? That's wack.

Not on a "feminine" tip, I am sure. But the principle that you are "both" Mother and Father... Should that be recognized on the opposing day?

My apologies Lurk... I am "new new" to the IC and was curious what you all thought.

But is it "wet wet"?

^^ I agree.

I also notice that there are single mothers out there that use this day to bash and down talk the absent fathers.

Is Bruce Jenner a woman?

Is Rachel Dolezal black?

Lets stop arbitrarily rewriting definitions to avoid hurting people's feelings, shall we

 

[Reesey]

No

Why not?

 

[soul rattler]

How about fuck all these damn holidays and if you really gave a fuck about what they stood for, you acknowledge them on a regular basis and not just once a year?

 

[S2J]

A child being raised by a single mother doesnt mean mom is both mom and dad

It means she is the mom, and there is no present dad

God forbid if i lose my thumb, my index finger doesn't then become my index finger AND thumb lls #bars

I don't think it's necessary.

Always comes across as bitter when I see that type of rhetoric, even if true.

 

[LUClEN]

Sure why not

I'm not going to get butt hurt if a boy gives his momma a card on father's day

That's what makes it wack

"I'm my son's daddy and mommy jadavion, shakur, and modesty don't need nobody, it's me and my three for you fuck niggas that got time to be in the club wit random bitches, get ya car fixed bitch ass nigga, we not worried about nobody over here I got us"

I love the hood lol. But on the real, broads like that give good single mothers a bad name. We ain't even mention my pops name when I was growin up, mommy just got it how she lived, wasn't really nothin to talk about. We needed to be provided for, so why waste the energy worryin about who's comin through the door. I get that independence from her. My mom is a beast.

 

[ghostdog56]

All it really means is that woman has poor decision making skills when it comes to choosing men so unless the father is dead that bitch is just making herself look bad

 

[CapitalB]

I absolutely thinks not. Father's Day is a day for fathers.
