In to today's society in which we are living, there are so many black mothers, who are struggling to take care of their children, all alone by themselves. It is not at all on easy task to be in charge of taking care of two are three and sometimes more infants, all by your self alone. It has to be a great mental and physical strain upon a mother, when there is no father around, to help her to care for the children spritually, physically, culturally socially and economically. It is not a good thing that the black woman be left alone to raise her children without having a father figure around, to assist in his fatherly ways, to teach and care for the child or children, as it is supposed to be. For how can the mother be the sole bread winner, and rent payer, and clothes buyer, and take care of all the basic needs for the children and herself, without suffering from great mental and physical strain. I have seen women walking on the street pushing a stroler with one tiny infant inside, and then there are two are three more walking behind her, and I wonder where is the father of all those children, since I could see the strain on the mother's faces, but, maybe he is at work, or is dead, or he is in prison, or he just do not care about his children, or one of those things, but it is clear, that the black woman of today, is really carrying a very heavy family burden on her own. It would be a very good thing if black fathers could try their best to take good care of black women, so that black women can take good care of their childern, so that our black children can grow up to be very healthy and intelligent adults, in order to take their rightful place in leadership in our black communities. It is the duty of black fathers, to make sure that their children are cared for, and be given the needed financial and other needed support, whether you and the mother of your child or children, are living in separation or not, your children are your children and you must make it your duty to help in their care and up bringing. Try to consider how difficult it would be for you as a man, if you had to raise several children without the help of their mother, and just put yourself in their position just for a thinking moment, and then be the best father that you can be, and help your black woman to care for our children.
