Stop belittling the men and boys in your life

Lately I have been seeing a lot of women and girls running men down. They talk about men are good for nothings, shameful, call them dogs, and so on. They also are the same women who complain that there aren't any good men left. Anybody else see a connection here? I'm just saying ...
Stop being bitter and start being better than you were. Stop blaming others for your choices and do something differently.
There are good men out there and they are eager to be able to express that to the right woman however if you are bitter and cold you are not what they re looking for.
And another thing if you have children stop running their daddy down! in front of them to the side with your girlfriends or momma, on the phone , or by arguing all crazy in front of them. They watch you and trust and believe they listen to every word you say and every gesture you make. when you are sitting with your friends talking about how all men are dogs and can't be trusted your sons are listening. When you tell him he is just like his no-good daddy he listens. When you tell his father you hate him the kids are listening and they think you hate them too after all he is in them too.
I'm just saying...
If you want to see better men out there make better choices and find a strong mentor for your family and get God in your life, stop emasculating your husband and allow him to run the home, pray pray pray, and encourage the men and boys in your life to be honorable by being honorable yourself.

  1. You are so correct...we have to remember to be mindful of our communications with other people. My personal pet peeve is when women try to make their sons be their "little men" or "man of the house." Let that boy be a child and you be a mother. That's where some folks get it twisted as well. Great info.

  2. This is sad and very true. I vowed to never degrade my son's father in front of them because I want to make sure any opinion they form about them, will be one they came up with on their own. Also I would also like to point out that there are, unfortunately, some men that actually live up to what women are saying which make these women bitter in the first place. I feel that the women however, should not take it out on every guy she meets.

    1. @Angel you are absolutely correct in saying that there are men who are not behaving the way they should in their relationships and in the lives of their children, however we as women also have to accept responsibility for our choices in mates. While we can not always predict what someone else will do it is very rare that you have no warning signs that someone is unreliable, irresponsible and not likely to be willing to be held accountable for their actions.
