I have no problem with their message, but I take offense to their tone.<br /><br />I'd feel better if they were preaching about education and guidance not only for the young women they want to prevent getting pregnant, but support and love for the ones that already have gotten pregnant. I read my first essay the site yesterday, and the author referred to a child of a single mother that moved into her neighborhood as a "hoodrat kid" and proceeded to talk about the shame that it was that this woman had to move into this home all by herself with a kid in tow. It didn't sound like she spoke any words of encouragement to this young woman, or offered to help. It sounded more like she found her feminine sensibilities insulted and her property values already dropping.<br /><br />Needless to say, I was turned off and after a brief exchange with a couple of supporters on Twitter, no doubt agitated by non supporters, I don't think I'll be going back.Deionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12192471840708757292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-235080849715954502010-10-02T14:12:32.242-05:002010-10-02T14:12:32.242-05:00You had me at "which should include an explor...You had me at "which should include an exploration of self worth"<br /><br />BAM BAM TURKEY AND HAM!<br /><br />We have to get at healthy full relationship with self before we even THINK about being in relationship with others.<br /><br />Great post - I'd never see your writing before but I will now!M.

I have a particular invested interest as my niece is now a single mom after her 'husband' fooled around, got someone else pregnant and left her hi 'n dry. That's including the leases to the cars, rent, etc. So yeah. I'mma do what I can.
