comedian says raising another man’s child is mental illness

[Chaseyourdreamzz]

what do you guys think about this statement it got a lot of reaction on black twitter

 

[bobby_hill-Punt]

If it not your brother son don't do it, unless the dad's dead and the child is not older than 5.

Post 2020, yes it is.

blood is not the only way to create family

 

[gasara]

Thats why hes a comedian. I've been raised by somali women and men who arent even blood related to me but still saw me as family. And they shaped me to be the person I am today and I am grateful for them. I like the Somali Dhaqan of it not only takes parents to raise a kid but community. We have to step up and help these poor kids.

Black American twitter was heavily divided on this topic it created a big discussion

True, if push ever comes to shove with your step children or wife they will always remind you of that fact. You will never have the full sense of authority that a biological father would over his family.

Good thing we follow islam and what the prophet saw preaches.

Nope because the child can be ungrateful after a small argument. They would say things like you are not my father which can be very hurtful

Podcasts and this community smh. No new knowledge is being obtained whatsoever

 

[Hmohamed54]

I disagree but there are a lot of women who get into relationships with these men and want others to solve their problems.

What a pathetic mentality.

If he drops dead, would he not want another man to step up for his children? When his ex moves on, does he expect the new husband to ignore his child?

Men who think like this are very short-sighted and stupid and only care about their own ego. Humans need community and that means being mature and loving to children, even if they are not your biological offspring.

Why is it hurtful? It’s the truth…

It’s wrong of you to think yourself as the kids father. Let the kid call you adeer or abti

I saw a Somali girl on social media yesterday that donated for a well to be built, in honour of her stepfather and his dad. Good stepfathers are loved and respected.

I know that i am not the real father and islamically it is also haram for a stepchild to call you father. Nevertheless you take on the role of a father. But imagine raising the child for years, driving him to school every morning, buying clothes, and taking care of him. Then one day after a small argument the child tells you: 'Stop acting like my father because you will never be that for me.' How would you react? You'll see many cases like this on the internet. It doesn’t matter how much effort you put into it many children will go back to their real fathers although they were always absent. This is a proof that blood is thicker than water

And you see the opposite of kids saying the Step Father was the father who stepped up. And how if it wasn't for him they wouldn't be where they are at today.

I know there are exceptions I didn’t generalise. It’s a 50:50 chance that the stepchild will respect and appreciate you. That's why many men won't take that risk

 

[Qeelbax]

I’m not mad at this because I wouldn’t get with a single dad. But if you are a single dad, don’t be talking too much about single moms. Y’all in the same boat.

 

[Kisame]

Most guys that date single moms plan on starting their own families. A single mom that's raising her child well is considered a great catch to a lot of niggas.
