I saw a post from a single mother addressing “baby daddies.” A single mother who has kids with different fathers said that if a man has a child with a single woman who have children with different fathers, he should try to support the other children if their fathers are irresponsible, because she won’t allow one child to have a better life than the others, so whatever you bring to her will be shared equally.
My opinion: If you are a woman and your first baby’s father didn’t marry you and you have no source of income to support another child, respect yourself and stay within your limits. It is shameful to even bring this up. It is a sin to open your legs and pop out babies with irresponsible men like yourself. It is very unfortunate that you think this way. If I were the baby’s father, I would either take custody of the child or arrange schooling myself, paying the fees directly to the school and covering the child’s upkeep with the headteacher. I would also buy books and uniforms on my own. I know that food will be shared at home, and that’s not a problem after all, they are half‑siblings but my child will not suffer because of another parent’s neglect, even though they share the same mother.
Do not get me wrong I have no problem with a man offering to take care of the other kids, but it shouldn’t be a “must.”
