Everyone has the right to be obese if they want....except those who are doing it on my or your dime. Stand in a McDonalds parking lot in some parts of any city, and you will observe several obese single mama Brood Mares towing their litter into the so-called restaurant, enabled by your tax money. I live right next to a Section 8 (free housing) "family". Is it wrong to mention they are so-called "minority?" They don't work, but they sure do EAT, judging by their sizes. Neither do they mow their lawn. When the weeds get or 12 to 18inches high, "the city" comes in to mow it down for them, for free. Not kidding.
A lot of times single mothers have to raise their kids on cheap high caloric, high fat foods. Using the term brood mares and litters imply they are animals. Please use your words carefully in the future. I will edit your post for you if you can't. A lot of them work very hard to raise their families.

You Saved me a repeat of the previous post stated by "untraditional": "we can also check pride, strife, and lying as well"...

I just loved the way Marcbee, threw the insults around...

I have said what I said. A metaphor such as "brood mare"
is too offesive for AFF? Then go ahead and edit my post. This will be my last post forever on AFF. Wish there were really a way to unsubscribe, rather than hearing, "Well, just don't browse over here." A layer of inaccess would be way easier, please. I have an idea! Please "Ban me," Cindy. Then I'm REALLY unsubscribed, correct? Or do I need to insult someone to be banned, rather than using an edgy metaphor such as "brood mare?"

Please note I did not refer to HARD WORKING SINGLE MOTHERS. I referred to lazy single mamas who don't work, and are supported by tax dollars due to their choices to have a litter of babies supported by the government.

People get overwhelmed in life and do not know of a way out. Some of these women you are referring to do get caught up in looking for a man to help them out, and just end up with losers. To compare them and their children with animals is not right. You will not be banned to stop you from posting.

I fully understand his frustration. We're not talking about good women who's man left them for greenier pastures. We're talking about women who make an industry out of breeding. I knew many of them from my home town with 4+ kids, all from different fathers. Did they work hard? That is a matter of debate since they still managed to be at the bar every night and of course had their kids on ADHD medication as a substitute for parenting.
