That sounds pretty typical for mothers.
I'm a late boomer. My father never one time got up for a 3 a.m. feeding or every changed a diaper. Very few men of that generation did. My husband never got up for a 3 a.m. feeding or changed a diaper (and I worked full time). Very few men of that generation did.

Just because our birthrate is low, it doesn't mean any and all children produced will be equal in becoming productive members of our society.

Rest assured one "baby daddy" of 5 different women will never work out well for the kids like a dad of 5 kids with one woman.

Nick Cannon supports every one of his 11 or 12 kids, and he's black. There was NOTHING in the linked story that described this guy's financial situation. Your summation is based on your racism I think.

OK. That's good to know. Sounds like these 'kids' know the trope, and know how to make money off of it. More power to them.

So, lying and knowingly deceiving other people in order to make money is OK with you? How is that any different than a "snake oil" salesman who peddles his phony product to make money?

Entertainment is a perfectly valid reason for presenting a "made up" scenario as long as it is presented only as "entertainment", but when phony scenarios are represented as being real life, then that's a con job.

It matters not to me, that you got your feathers ruffled over black people making a tik tok video. No. Not one wit.

To be fair Cannon is worth 100 million. He can easily afford to pay out 3 million a year to support his kids.
Statistics indicate a high percentage of single black mothers and higher poverty rates as well. So people assume. Regardless of color a significant number of parents do not pay their child support pushing many single mothers into poverty thus needing government assistance even when the custodial parent does work.

Personally, I dont think this gossip is true, but fathering multiple children with multiple women is not anything to be proud of no matter what color your skin is.
