Just say no to All My Babies Mommas
Monica DeLancy is a member of a number of parent advocate organizations and community groups. She is the proud parent of two children.
This is not an attempt to bring awareness to Oxygen's new reality show All My Babies Mommas. The show will highlight Atlanta's rap artist Carlos "Shawty Lo" Walker and the mothers of his 11 children. Mr. Walker has 11 children with 10 different women. Although we know there are a lot of reality shows on t.v. today. This will be the only show that has a title with a slang reference to how single mothers are reffered to primarily in the African American community. Why couldn't the show be called Single Father in the ATL or My kids and I. The catchy name will most likely briing in a lot of viewers. Hopefully show can bring awareness about the challenges a father have being the parent that does not have primary custody. It could also reference some initiatives from the government such as fatherhood.gov which gives insight on how to establish paternity, child support, joint custody rights,l and educational programs. If the show does make it to the line up we hope that some of its proceeds will be donated to non-profit groups that promote youth development, sthrethening families programs , and enrichment programs.
