Your child is not a pawn in your revenge
Your child is not a paycheck
Your child is not a way to get bills paid
Your child is not a chain around your neck

Your child is not a manicure & pedicure
Your child is not a concert ticket
Your child is not a new outfit
Your child is not a cell phone minute

Your child is not cupid
Your child can't make him love you
Your child can't make him stay
Your child can't make him marry you

Your child needs your affection and guidance
Your child needs minimal exposure to the drama
Your child needs a caring, responsible mother
Your child needs you to grow the hell up and stop acting like a baby mama
