    It is so refreshing to hear other women speaking of the misplaced values in our community. A part of the problem is that we have been socialized as a community to emphasize accountability for our boys/men with very little compassion..it is ruthless and it is respecting our men but not loving them.. On the other hand we emphasize compassion for our girls/women with little accountability..it is infantilizing and it is loving us but not respecting us. This and a number of other factors have begun to contribute to the rapid deterioration of families and our community as a whole. I cannot believe the mainstream acceptance of terms like "babymama" or "babydaddy".

    Seriously, ppl need to live their lives how they see fit. Everything isn’t a race issue. If fifty percent of marriages in the US end in divorce, and we Blacks supposedly don’t get married, than whose getn divorced? Ppl are so focused on proving that they’re different, but need to expand their horizons. The one thing I’ve learned from being around non-Black ppl is that many diff cultures have issues within their community, but the major diff I c, is that in our culture, many of us despise each other.

    Now, I am a single mother and my opinion is, not that I'm judging her, but she should have already known that raising one child by yourself is a struggle whether you have money or not; so why go out here and have another child OUTSIDE….of marriage! Nah….never again! This sista is going to wait on the Lord man… because that ride alone is no joke especially when you have to explain to that child why the father isn't there and you don't really no why yourself. That was not a smart move on her behalf. She should have waited for the guy to marry her. I sure hope he does marry her. Best Wishes!

    No marriage, no children for me.

    Yeah you got the right name but you forgot to add the "t" —– LOST. You are one LOST and NEGATIVE and DUMB Brother. If you don't trust black women, it's because you don't trust yourself. Your mama was black, so you need to get a clue and go BACK to UNDERSTAND your roots. Oh by the way, get a education too and try to stay out of jail.

    At least Nia won't be collecting welfare. Its not a bad thing for any woman to have a baby out of wedlock if she can adequately provide for her children. Also, if she is in agreement with a financially sound man, who also can help in supporting their children. We have so many women of all races, who settle for welfare benefits and poor, uneducated men. Its as if they feel that its a part of life to struggle financially. How pathethetic is that?

    I agree with the comments reflecting marriage is important and should be practiced in our community. To me when a woman decides to have a baby out of wedlock that is selfish. A child should grow up with all the confidence in the world knowing that the two most important people in their life who made the most important decision(s) in that child's life and that is to love and protect. Time and time again we see the effects of single motherhood. They aren't all success stories and even our President has stated it is hard to do. To the poster who said, "sometimes the woman has to be the man mother too" just one thing – she doesn't "have" to be she chooses to be. When a pregnancy is planned and with husband and wife the wife plays the mommy part and the father plays the daddy part.

    It goes to show BW instill in her boys the hate for marriage, hence the high out of wedlock birth rates. Too many of us have the ideology that "you don't need a marriage to have a baby" or "men run away" or the really good one "you get married to get divorced". All of those excuses are geared toward promiscuity and is just that, excuses. On my final note, God is in everything, without Him we wouldn't be here. You can't cut Him out then bring him back in when it's convenient, but He promised there will be many like you, sensational sensual men and women entering in the kingdom.

    Exactly! It really isn't about status, its about how messed up the world already is and how people, especially women, should start getting back to some, and I stress, some, of the basics of being respectable women. It's not about running a man down to make him your husband or being the stereotypical "baby mama". Its about going along with how messed up everything that used to be negative and is actually still negative is being accepted by society. Marriage is important and celebrities are not gods and they shouldn't be placed above that constitution. Hint, hint to the serial marriers out there who get married only to get divorced a couple months or years later.

    i don’t know why everyone is saying she should get married, is the man that should marry. A woman always wait for a man to marry her, if he does not what is she to do. even if is Nia long.

    These days people believe in living together for long before getting married so children come.

    Not knocking anyone, but it's sad that our race doesn't believe in family. I work in the public see wedding rings all day, but it's always our race by themselves with kids. Marriage doesn't promise anything but at least it's a foundation.

    • Jill

      What do you mean by "our" race? Lots of black people believe in marriage, maybe black Americans don't, but they do not represent the majority of black people in this world. In fact, they represent less than 5% of all black people in the world. Stop projecting your deficiencies unto the rest of the world.

  • Cherie

    Wow…..!! what's with all the negative comments. What she does is HER business…people love to judge and knock. I personally won't be having a child un-wed but that's my own personal belief. But if Nia is happy and content…leave her be man! plus, no one knows if marriage isn't on the cards…lets see!
    Good luck for the beautiful couple….he's super fineeeeeee! ;-)

    • Christina

      I tired of black women not having standards and values when it comes to family. I see nothing worth celebrating. Just another tacky "situation".
