This is one of many examples. The young Brothas and Sistas can't even fly right at times because of all these obstacles put in their way that don't even include the ones from White Supremacy. That's a problem. If a young Sista can't even work because she has to watch her siblings because her momma don't know how to slow down, close her legs, and be in a proper relationship, that's a problem. Those aren't her daughter's babies, she's not running a day care to be paid, and she doesn't owe it to her mom to do that. We're supposed to build them up, not break them down.
If part of a child's paycheck needs to go to cover part of your bills because you're short after going on a cruise, that's a huge problem. You're a huge problem at that point. It doesn't matter who you got pregnant by, no one made you get pregnant by them. It's a mindset some of these chicks have that make them believe that somebody has to pay for their poor decisions. If that man doesn't want to pay child support, put him on child support. I'd rather that not happen if he's doing what he needs to do, but we have to do what we have to do for our children. If you choose to be foolish with your money, eat that, don't burden your child with that.
I've been making moves out here for awhile, and I've come across the same issue to where I've had to tell some young cats to keep their momma out the loop. Same as them folks, but for different reasons. The foolish ones want them to make money so they can rely on them instead of their children being able to take off, and the White Supremacists don't want them to be able to make any moves. Any moves made, the demons want them be limited or make sure those are the only moves made when they find out when it doesn't feed them.
We chop it up, reveal a potential play, and then the concern pops up about their mom trying to spend anything she finds out they have or reserve it for her wants. If you want to stay where you are as a grown rusty adult, do you, but stay out of your child's way. I urge the young Brothas and Sistas, just like older cats I speak with one on one, do your best to keep your moves quiet or risk being a lick. No one knows what your play is if you don't tell them, and definitely don't tell them folks even if they're your so-called friend because they aren't giving you game. They aren't lining you up for success. They'll line you up to line their pockets like those serpents did with Michael Oher, the player the Blind Side movie was based on. He was their meal ticket. Again, the demons want your moves to be limited when they find out you've made any. This holds true even more when it doesn't feed them.
I've been able to get a number of young cats to start saving with solid plays. I saw a Brotha the other day who I spoke with about a month ago. I didn't know where he worked but he got my attention. He's on the move and motivated. His energy was different from when we originally began to chop it up to when I saw him. I ran into a young Sista I spoke with several times, checking in, and she got her first car already.
She accelerated quicker than she thought she would because of one shift: She got her own bank account and savings, and stopped just giving her mom those checks. You know who was pissed about it. They can pay where they stay, but it needs to be fair so they can fly. Fly with them, it's possible.

They need to have money not just in their pocket to spend, but for building their lives and investing in their future.
We need more good stewards with money, moving in ways that allow them to wield their income and wealth in ways that make a positive impact on the community and the people we need to invest in.
The people in our community who want to buy land to help or property that helps the collective, is someone worth backing.
The grassroots initiatives in our community moving to help us in priceless ways, are worth backing.
Those with the right political aspirations with the right team behind them, are worth backing.
The inventors in our community with ideas that bless us, are worth backing.
The right efforts are worth the investment, but where's the money going to come from if too many of our people are trying to make a dollar out of 15 cents? There are people who would be able to stand more firmly if they didn't give their last to that church too. I have to keep going there because some people drop big money in the church, and sometimes its just a flex. Charity starts at home. I'm not going through everything discussed in Future Prep, but when we have more we have the ability to do more. There are a number of scriptures that prove why we should tithe in the community over doing dumping money into a religious house of cards where people are playing games.
It doesn't take a lot when more of us have an extra dollar to spare to help build and open doors for FBA who want to do more. I'm not trying to turn anyone away from their religion, but things I've seen continue to annoy me. Taking and taking and you have to figure things out on your end. It's not just some of these moms, and the reason why I run into some of these situations is because of the men too many of these women choose. It's not all Black men because a smaller pool are fathers to multiple children through multiple women. I won't get into that, but I see multiple of these women struggling. Then look at the other family members who might pop up with their hand out and their lip poked out when it looks like anyone is making a move they aren't willing to make or even trying to support.
I'm doing my part and did more than a number people who will sit up trying to be critical. Do something good for another Brotha or Sista. This goes double for helping these young cats who need direction. If you don't know how, send them in the direction of Brothas and Sistas that do. We may have different approaches, but On-Code Foundational Black Americans will never tell them to Coon, backstab, or do something destructive to themselves or our people. That's a much better approach than I can say for some. Reach young Brothas and Sistas before someone else does and tries to send them in a destructive direction. The Coons that make up the Cartier Family, claim their mindset was changed by the teachings of Super Coon, Thomas Sowell. You don't want that to happen to your children and some of them folks who claim to be cool with your children will present these Coons to your children to show that they follow the teachings of Black people. If they see promise they try to sabotage.
It doesn't matter if someone didn't appear to look out for you, our ancestors did plenty for us all. We don't have children to fail those children. Be motivated to make a move in the right direction. Ask yourself what can you do this week and commit to it. From there, continue making it a habit once a week.
