Happened to read the Peoples article, and this is just terrible.

His daughter would have been better off is he would have waited to conceive her after he had graduated from high school, got a steady job, and married her mother. There is a reason for the old fashion way of doing things. It works.

"If something ever happens to me, no one can ever tell her that her dad didn't take care of her," he told People. An eerie premonition...Almost like he knew he it was going to happen...

The August issue of People profiled Pough, who worked as the night manger at a local restaurant while attending school full-time and raising his daughter, Diamond, who will be 2 on Nov. 27.
What is a "night manger"?

What a stupid comment. Shallow and thoughtless.

Yep. Of course that raises doubts about his "work". Probably working with the drug trade.

Well anyone living in a violent urban setting like most our major (blue) cities has to realize the dangers, unless you're a fool. That's why those who can, will move out of the city after having children.

I agree with Ninian. Why glorify these mistakes?

May God comfort his family and bless this poor little girl.

How about we judge the kid on what he did after he made a mistake. "He who has no sin should cast the first stone". It sounds like this kid was probably a better father than alot of the ones who get married then have children. Get down off of your high horse. And what does any of this have to do with him getting shot in the head on his way home from work?
To: ncountylee
Perhaps the article itself made him a target? Do the inner city gangbangers read people?

I agree with both of you. How about profile someone who did it the right way? My sympathies are with this child....and the cycle continues.

I agree with Ninian. Why glorify these mistakes?I take it you've never made mistakes? People who try to right the consequences of their mistakes, rather than blame them on others should be lauded, not criticized.

Because after he made a mistake, he took full responsibility for it and tried very hard to make up for it, going to school, working a job, taking care of his kid (where's Mom?) planning a good future. This is the type of person we should be applauding, not castigating.

Those type of spelling mistakes really irritate me. Our local news does it all the time and I just sit and shake my head. I think it is an example of the quality of education coming out of our schools.

He made a mistake, but he was man about it and did the right thing. He was working, going to school and trying to give his daughter the best life he could. I wish more young fathers would be this dedicated to their children.
