    Honestly I feel like the fact that he values winning over his own legacy says something about his competitiveness. You can say whether it's admirable or not, but he's a champion.

I don't know you personal but Ms. Wanda I absolutely love you and I pray you continue telling your story. I too was a proud single mom of my Son who graduated in the top 5 in his class and went on to go to college and graduated with a degree in Engineering. He never got in trouble or gave me any problems because like you I was tough and it paid off. Hats off Ms Durant you truly are THE MVP!!!!

Duyea, keep sharing such positive messages to not just speak to sentiments, but changes the narrative of what is attractive! We need more like you!

My 4 kids is 11 n under and i feel like they saved my life because they give me a reason to survive n to overcome hardships because i got 4 innocent babies that need me. Y'all read into to much.

    She would've made foolish choices if not required to grow up to be a mom. 1 Timothy 2:11-15 Women should listen and learn quietly and submissively. I do not let women teach men or have authority over them. Let them listen quietly. For God made Adam first, and afterward he made Eve. And it was the woman, not Adam, who was deceived by Satan, and sin was the result. But women will be saved through childbearing and by continuing to live in faith, love, holiness, and modesty.
