My grandmother had 4 kids by 4 different men. She married them all... the shit didn't work out with any of them. All of you mofos who think just because she didn't marry the babies fathers are seriously jaded. All four of her children went to college (without fathers being a daily part of their lives) and became productive members of society. The bottom line is if Erykah is legally taking care of her children and if your money and time isn't required to keep her family afloat then it's none of your damn business. If you can't see that shit, then you are one of the self-righteous, judgmental folks that you were originally called. well yeah 2010: Healing the Wounds of the Past.... http://prince.org/msg/8/325740 | |

We don't know Erykah's story. I personally don't care. all of know is it's fucked up to make a character call because someone chose to have children with multiple partners. Thank GOD Badu don't give a fuck what none of you think about what she's done. | |

I think everyone is just jealous she has some babies by some hot ass men with some good dick who are good fathers that are able to take care of their offspring. i mean how much better could it get? [Edited 4/6/09 16:12pm] To make a thief, make an owner; to create crime, create laws. | |

I doubt she smoked during the pregnancy, but Lauryn claims she doesn't get blunted and look at what happened there. Don't blame the ganja, don't knock it 'til you tried it. Is anyone going to rag on Lauryn for having five kids with the same man and not marrying him? | |
