The difference.

Most of the people saying it wouldn't even do it

The difference that not every single person is the same?

Woah, deep...

Couldnt be me havinf family begging for coins. Tf

I can’t really say what I want because mfs be trying to 1 up people but you right, everyone isn’t a good parent. It just comes down to how your heart is set up. Despite conflicts in the family I never been the type to move like that, if they need help I always still been there to help when needed. I probably came off as rude because I was stuck in my own way of thinking when it comes to family and I apologize to anyone I offended. It’s just a touchy situation for me but I shouldn’t have came in hot, that’s my bad.

wow, they have 2 similarities, there must be no nuance past that! exact same situations!

Being an addict doesn't excuse your neglect the moment she had children her respnsilties changed and she accepted a role in society.

She gave up on that role and forfeited responsibility for her children and Nas x atleast tried inspite of that.

I don‘t care how "bad" the relationship with my mom is I will never leave her homeless in the street

I'm happy you think that way

Damn

that’s your relationship with your mom, and you see her through the lens of being your mom

LNX doesn’t have your mom

how privileged of you to speak like no matter what the situation, no matter what the abuse is, you’d be there for your mom, especially when LNX has paid for his mother’s rehab & she keeps running away

Who changed the title?

If you know addicts then you know they work

Lil Nas probably got her a house down the road and she’s still out there begging or maybe she doesn’t want any of his ”gay money”. Idk but never think you know everything based off 1 video.

Thats your Mom not his

change the title back to that lie & it’s a mute @op

If that is his mom why they record her like that

if your mom hurts your kids are you still rocking with her?

He aint privileged he just built differently

When did he say he payed for her rehab

dude has the privilege of viewing that situation as a hypothetical, not as real life

@op

Ur right, that doesnt change the fact there are some people who would still help their mother if in the same situation

“where did he say he paid for her rehab” it was literally on page 1 & you responded to it

"Love is earned,forgiveness is earned"

I agree but you don't need to love someone to help them out assuming yore fully capable of doing so

"and imo it isn't on the abused and neglected especially children to forgive"

It actually is, your pet rock isn't gonna forgive your abusive parent for you - no one has to forgive but it's their responsibility to do so or not - and most importantly deal with the consequences of doing so/or not

"unless it's something they need personally."

"It isn't about getting back it's about allowing yourself to live a life free from the trauma you were tormented by as a child.: People have a right to wanna be free from people who hurt them in the past."

They do! I think I mentioned earlier on that they no one has to be involved in any shape or form with someone who abused them and is most likely planning doing it again but
I also don't think that fleeing/escaping ones problem/trauma is being free from it

it can open the door to other prisons such as... You guessed it.... Substance abuse/addiction (but that's a whole other convo)

"Some people think Tina shoulda forgave Ike before he died personally to me I say"

Lol it's okay to say f*** him-he abused her with no remorse,

Idk if lil nas x mom feels apologetic about being an neglectful, addict so idk if it's best for him to forgive her

That being said - I think we should encourage them to push to have a better relationship - cutting of everyone sounds cute until you're left there with your unresolved trauma, bitterness, inability to bond with new people and no one from the past...

Also I totally undersand not wanting to be around someone who clearly is still abusive - I don't think it's safe to assume his mom is still abusive - besides still being an addict

It's s tough one man

Like DMX had an abusive ass upbringing beyond belief vbut it seems like he still had s relationship with his mom and even said he forgave her

but I think everyone would agree that if he'd decided she was dead to him he would've been well within his rights to leave her in the dust
