Profile Information
- Why join the Black Moms Network?
- Networking. I'm here to have an honest discussion about the issues dealing with "BLACK" single moms. Otherwise, parenting is a universal issue. I love networking about parenting with all races and cultures.
View my page on Children Need Both Parents
- How many children do you have?
- 2 =a 1 year old girl & a 13 year old boy
I am in search of all kinds of information to improve my attitude toward my child's father, and to help me understand why black households are 70% single parents today.
- About Me:
- I didn't ask to be or plan on being a single mom. How about you?
I want to talk about FATHERS. Are there any ongoing discussions talking about fathers? Please find me if you would like to talk about FATHERS also. This single mom thing is new to me, and I know we all have a reason why we are single mothers. We didn't make these babies by ourselves.

Psyche of the Single Parent
It's time to saturate pop culture with positive black voices. It's time to let the world know who we are and what we think. It's time to over power and strong arm the media with the TRUTH.

Deadbeat Grandmas...let's end our silence about them: Grandmotherless Children
This show was an icebreaker show on the subject, that I'd like to revisit in the future. Thank you for listening and calling in. I'm sorry I didn't get to all the callers holding the line to share their input on air. Please call back for the future show.
It turned out to be an emotional subject for me to talk about on air, absent of jokes. I absolutely was not in the mood to interview my mom on air, because it is an absolute emotional subject for her too, as with many gra… Continue

I Love this Black Moms Club Website, I'm new to it. Here's my 1st email to L. Henry. What do you think?
PLEASE ADD ADVICE on how to include the non custodial father in a child's life. When and if this is possible, it should be encouraged.
I see you do include low income resources for single moms, but in most states these resources are being phased out and replaced with MANDATORY CHILD SUPPORT FILINGS or no state support will be eligible. And now the maximum income allowed in IL is $1,000 or less to recieve many of t… Continue
