Flint mother Latrica Ryan of 10 looks to community for help - (29 year old has 10 kids)
Flint Journal ^ | Nov 29, 2008 | RoNeisha Mullen

FLINT, Michigan -- With 10 kids and no vehicle, Latrica Ryan is used to juggling.

Going to a movie or out for dinner is a like plotting a major tactical undertaking. Not that such outings happen that much.

"It would really be nice if I could take my kids where they needed to go, instead of having to find them a ride," Ryan said. "And when we do go somewhere, I have to pay four or five people (for gas) to get us all there.

"I have booster seats and car seats. It's a lot."

Ryan, is a 29-year-old single stay-at-home mother of five sons and five daughters, who range in age from 2 months to 13 years.

Where’s daddy?

Your question implies the singular. The article tactfully avoids mentioning any father-figure in these children's lives. Instead, it focusses on the logistics of taking the kids to the movies (not to church,) as though mass-entertainment were the important factor missing in their lives.

Sad.

Regards,

I met women like this when I worked at the local Public Health Dept, issuing WIC vouchers, doing paperwork for well baby checks, immunizations, family planning visits (gyn exams and birth control), etc. One gal was 18 with 5 children, one on the way. She became very angry when one of the nurses informed her that the govt would pay for sterization when she delievered her latest pregnancy. "I am entitled to as many babies and checks as I want, you racist b****!". Was just one of her responses.

I just find it hard to comprehend this way of thinking.

I think thats him in the middle of the picture.

The question is where is mom?

Man, that turkey baster has gotten a lot of work! (Or else there's a booming business in paper bags!)

This is the kind of deadbeat that makes me wish for mandatory sterilization after the birth of the second "out of wedlock" child to any female on the dole.

Why the second? Why not have sterilization be a condition for receiving welfare on the first?

I know that was sarcasm, but for the writer to portray a single, unemployed woman with 10 kids as a "stay at home mom" is an outright lie. The left never can call things what they are because it would destroy them.

Well, she obeyed the command to Be Fruitful and Multiply.
Interesting that no conservatives of faith seem to mention this and come to her defense.

Yeah, I think you’re big-time mistaken when you use the singular form of “daddy”.

Euphemism is the most effective weapon the Left has.

And they wield it with Ninja-like expertise.

Sadly, if you scroll down on the article and read the comments, SEVERAL of the posters explicitly stated that Obama’s gonna help her and other women like her ... because he is a black president.

So sad.

At least other posters replied with “are you nuts?”

Why are the oat givers not paying maximum? Who are the oat givers? And why all the children when there is NO money to raise them?

Must get a lot of money from people who work.
