Opinions Please! Posted: 05-21-04 07:40am
Hey everyone... Ok I need ur
opinions...
Of course, to make matters only worse and
raise my doubts even more.. Today in the
bathroom a lady said to me "aw r u having
a little girl?" and I said "no... Im
havin a boy" .. And shes like "aww..
Well that will be fun to.. But u would
have it so much easier havin a girl if the
dads not around...It will be much harder
raising a boy with out the dad". (she has
talked to me b4 and knew about the dad
situation) and it just made me upset!
Thats not what I wanna hear. A boy does
seem to need their dad... What do u
think??? Thanks

Do you have male friends, or brothers? Or
even your father? If you feel strongly
about this, have your son spend time with
these people. You don't need an actual
father, as long as there is one male
around that will treat your son good, and
your son can look up to him for guidence.
But honestly hun, mothers have raised
wonderful sons with out fathers around!!
Have more faith in yourself.

Everything would be fine. I'm the one
that does everything for my son while his
daddy is at work. I was the one who had
to potty train him sitting down first,
because that is what he saw me do. Then I
had to teach him how to pee standing up.
By the time my hubby gets home from work
he too tired to do anything with him. I
mean he plays with him and all, but it's
like jordan said he will be a mommas boy.
Just don't raise him to dependeant to
you, give him a little freedom. You will
do great, you will see how those motherly
instinct kicks in. Look at all these
girls here, their young but they got the
hang of it pretty quickly. Do what I do,
play the mommy and daddy role. You could
do it many mnay women in this world do it
so can you. I have faith in you. Next
time someone says something to you, tell
them to mind their own business, we don't
need you to worry about stupid caca .

Thanks alot girls! That makes me feel
alot better! I thought it was kind of
rude how she was putting things.. Like
trying to make me feel bad. She was also
like "moms cant do alot of things with
sons.. They need the father there. .Its
gonna be real tuff to do it alone''.. Im
like ''shutup! Im not alone!! " I have
my brother and my dad too. Plus, whoever
I end up bein with later ya know.. . Who
knows I just think of the daddys playin
sports with em etc. But I will be his mom
and do my best to play both as much as
possible*
I would have hit that biotch for you if I
had been there! Stupid woman! No, you
will be a great mother and he will not
need his father around! Sure it'd be
nice..... But it's not necessary to
survive!!!!! Omg~ the stupid people of
today! She's rude! Plain rude!

I dont know about when they are more then
4 years old but its the same. Efrain
wants a daddy and asks for him all the
time and selena and tony both love guys
when they come around cause they have
mostly been around girls. Nothing big so
far! The hardest thing is teaching efrain
to stand and pee and not sit down!

Oh no no no!! Momma's do alot with their
boys! I remember the first time I took
zander camping(last april) granite I was
like 6 1/2-7 months pregnant but man did
we do everything- hiking, fishing,
catching bugs! Lol I play catch with him
out back on my days off and we watch
football together all the time. Moms can
do everything dads can! We have no
limits-obviously we've gone through labor!

Yup just like jordan said. Thats why I
want a boy now because ill have my mommas
boy. And now jose wants a girl so he can
have his daddys girl. Your boy will be
just fine, he will be soo attached to you.
Just remember to keep him in boy things
you know. Like sports and stuff. And do
boy things lol. But when he gets bigger.
Im sure he will have manly figures around
when hes bigger and needs it.
That lady was kinda rude and out of place
to be telling you that though. F someone
approaches you again just say, I can do
anything a daddy can and he will be a
mommas boy, we dont need no man! Lol
