Yo Bravo, what you're trying to say is, stereotypes exist for a reason yeah? That if this was such a rare occurance, people wouldn't automatically assume her to be an impoverished African-American... but because it is, the assumption stands as valid.

no...yes

what i am trying to say is, ATG says its a womens natural instinct blah blah blah and nobody says anything.  what i am saying is african american women in africa have kids at alarming rates...so it appears that is an african womens natural instinct also....or cultural.  and the fact that when you see stuff like this they are usually black well......

Racial stereotyping = racism.
Don't you get it?
Also, what the hell does this mean?

african american women in africa

I challenge you to find anyone who is a 'fit' mother for 15 children.

Fail psychology at its best. Blame God for your lack of sexual discipline credit God for his gifts, then complain to the state when you can't support them.

After she was evicted last month for not telling her landlord she had 12 children in her care, Adams, 37, landed in the Economy Inn on Busch Boulevard. Her plight came to light after she complained that the government didn't do enough to help her.

Her comments unleashed a flood of criticism that she was abusing the system. Child welfare officials in Tampa said they were helping the family because of the children, despite Adams' attitude that the government owed her.

Hillsborough Kids Inc., which manages child welfare in the county, agreed to pay off Adams' rent debts and the Tampa Housing Authority agreed to waive a five-year ban on Adams, who owed the authority $6,000.

"We're not here to start giving her handouts," Nick Cox, the Florida Department of Children & Families' regional director, said during a status hearing in family court this week. "We're not here to provide for her. We're not here to provide her a house that she wants or anything like that. We're here to help and support and take care of the children."

This afternoon, Adams said she was ready to leave A Kid's Place, the shelter near Brandon.

"Well," she said, "I'm still at the Kid's Place and I'm just waiting to move into my new house.

"I'm really excited and I'm just ready to go home and just move on with my life," she said.

She responded to critics who say she's milking the system by saying, "Well, I tell those people I do pay for them [her children]. I have been paying for them and that's why I'm where I'm at today."

Last week, she said she had a right to have as many children as she wanted, even though she couldn't support them.

Adams' comments about social welfare agencies not doing enough to help was widely criticized during the past week. She doesn't currently have a job. Her children were fathered by three men, including one who is in prison.

She lost her children two years ago after neglect accusations, but the family was reunited six months ago. Three of the 15 children don't live with her.
