I feel horrible. I’m usually the type of person that gives people the benefit of the doubt 99% of the time, and unfortunately, I gave Juvenile the benefit of the doubt when I learned that he had not attended the funeral of his slain daughter. But after reading this letter Illseed posted at All Hip Hop my stomach turned in knots. The man never claimed his daughter, never had intentions of claiming her, and didn’t even have the decency or respect to attend her funeral. And to add insult to injury, the bastard performed in Augusta, GA just a few short hours after her funeral service. To know that her incarcerated uncle (the guy who sent the letter out) was somehow able to attend the services even makes the situation worse. Speaking of adding insult to injury and making the situation worse, how about NO ONE FROM JUVENILE’S FAMILY ATTENDED THE FUNERAL! Not his mother, none of his sisters/brothers, cousins … no one. They didn’t even send a flower or card and they didn’t even give them a call. It’s like she never existed to them. That’s fucking sad.
People need to realize that children don’t have anything to do with how or when they are brought into this world. They don’t choose their parents. Their parents choose to have them. It doesn’t matter whether or not the mother was a jump-off and you didn’t have any intentions on having a baby with her. That’s your damn child, no matter how much you deny them. That will NEVER change. I don’t plan on having any children until I’m married, or until I’m with the woman I want to marry, but if by some chance I do end up getting a girl pregnant before that happens, you best believe I am going to claim my child and be in their life.
Anyway, let me get off of my soap box. If you’re interested in reading the letter, check it out after the cut…
