And whose fault is it that the fathers are absent?
The woman who produced the babies without marrying the men. She chose to sleep with two men to whom she was not married knowing full well that that's how babies happen.
So it DOES come back to Miss Atkins.
Quite frankly, we don't know why the fathers are not involved with the children, except for the fact that one of them apparently has a criminal record involving drugs.
"The woman who produced the babies..." They produced. "She chose". Actually, they chose to engage in sexual relations with one another.
The parents carry equal responsibility. Location does not seperate you from responsibility.
Yes, it does "come back to Miss Atkins", and father #1, #2, and so on......
