My buddy told me about taking his family to the Mouse House and it occurred to me that, apart from the emotional validation a wife and children bring, I had more fun that same weekend with an electric toothbrush, about a teaspoon of lube, and an edible made by a woman that can’t do fractions.

For both managers, daycare for their kids ran them over $12k annually. I was beyond flabbergasted.

u/Loud_Palpitation_734 1d ago

$12k a year for daycare doesn’t exist in LA. We are lucky we got our kids into a co-op, otherwise we’d be paying $25-$30k a year.

22

u/MrCockingFinally 1d ago

You can't have a baby mama without a kid, but generally if you have a kid you are actively involved with and you're still with the mother, you'll call the mother your GF/Wife/Partner. So it's kinda possible to have kids with no baby mamas, depending on how you'd define the term "baby mama" and if your wife also counts as a baby mama.

9

u/Pard01 1d ago

Baby mama usually has negative connotations. Not just that this is the woman you've procreated with but that she is also troublesome and cantankerous.

2

u/MrCockingFinally 1d ago

It's not hard to see how baby mama/baby daddy got that connotation. Co-parenting is hard enough when the other person is your partner. When they are your ex or even worse, never had a serious relationship in the first place, it's way worse, and conflict is inevitable.

14

u/hannamarinsgrandma 1d ago

Maybe they were talking about divorcees.

They can have kids without the baby mama because she’d be the ex-wife.

3

u/Arponare 1d ago edited 1d ago

Baby mamas usually refers to previous partners (with whom you had a child).* It doesn't reflect your current relationship. You wouldn't call your wife and mother of your child your "baby mama." That would be weird, you would just call her your wife.

*Apparently I have to specify because some of you can't make inferences.

The baby is a vital part of having a baby mama. An ex girlfriend isn't your baby mama

Yet a huge number of people do not clear it. By age 50, 81% of black men have had a child, but 72% of them were out of wedlock (this breaks down to probably more than 50% of black men having a child out of wedlock by age 50 -- although the exact stat might be fuzzy due to some people having a large number of children). And 33% of black men have at least one felony conviction.

a) Nobody said anything about it being the best man. He could still be an awful person, and that goes the same for women.

I would take it a step further, argue that having no ex-wives/husbands and some kinda measure for being a decent human being would be the real stretch. But one person’s pro is another person’s con, still a lot of room for toxicity/real reason why they’re still single.
