Are we supposed to feel sorry for her? I don’t get it.

>She still can’t escape the circumstances into which she was born…

Get over it. Those not busy being born are busy dying.

Winfrey could write a $100k check and not feel it.

The hypocrisy of the oh so concerned Black celebrity....

Unfortunately the mainstream media would rather see her continue to struggle as it better fits their narrative that all black people are oppressed by rich, heterosexual, white American males - the source of all evil in this world.

Too bad that the black community didn’t take this hero mom under their wing, like they did Rachel Jantel (or whatever that young lady’s name was).

You think the media would make a hero out of a woman trying to raise her son off the streets? She doesnt fit the agenda and therefor is a nobody. But she did the right thing and can forever know that and be proud of what she did.

My gut reaction is that many if not all employers who made job offers to this woman were contacted by some source that did not want her to succeed, or serve as an example of escaping poverty. I know it sounds paranoid, but with the O-Gang, and sleazy Al Sharpton poverty pimps clustered in Baltimore, some of that deep suspicion is well warranted.
I find it very strange that ALL of the offers were either no good or revoked.
In fact, I don’t believe that.

Then, just as quickly as they started, the calls stopped as the national focus swiveled away from Baltimore. The media requests slowed to a trickle. The promised scholarships never materialized. None of the job offers Graham said she fielded led to employment...so what else is new in this hyped-up, glitzy culture where too many people think all they have to do is win quick fame and the adoration of the masses to be forever rich and secure in their personal life - she'll be lucky if she doesn't become disillusioned and despondent because her aspirations proved empty and end up drunk in some ally somewhere......

It happens all the time, that people are famous for a short period of time, and then forgotten. It is the phenomenon that we call “15 minutes of fame.”

Born into?

Single mother with 6 kids? All the same father? Widow? Did he run off and leave her hanging?

If so I have sympathy but I don't think that's the case.

Plus no job skills and a record.

I see a pattern...

She got $25,000 for smacking her kid around. That’s a lot more than I ever got for the same. Seriously, she did the right thing, got $25k for it, but believed some hucksters that she’d get more. She’d do well to know she did right thing to begin with. I wonder if she saved any of that money to pay taxes with. As usual, no good deed goes unpunished. I hope she sticks to her guns and raises her children right even if the fathers aren’t involved.

She’s lucky the left didn’t kill her for ruining their narrative.

IIRC, I got the impression that she thought the biggest threat to her kid was the police.

She gets 25 grand and she isn’t any smarter and her life, while freer of a few debts, isn’t any better.

Libs say that the problem is that not enough money is sent to the poor or that not enough money is sent to the schools.

So, what’s the lesson here?

a sudden infusion of $25K is a really nice thing but it doesn't suddenly put you on easy street.

Wait until tax time rolls around and she finds out that she has to declare that as income. Plus, if she is on any type of aid, that counts as income also and she may have to pay back what she received.

The word ...hero....does not apply here.......

Concerned mom.....angry mom....whatever....

...but not hero.

Hero is reserved for our military, our policemen, our fire fighters, the brave souls of 9/11 and other catastrophes who rescue others from death, sometimes giving their own lives....
THOSE are heros.

The media have overused this word to almost make it pointless.

But it’s not.....Thanking God we still have heroes!!!!
