It was a different time when I was younger the expectation was still pretty much

Find a good man to take care of you but I came from a dysfunctional abusive

family that had no real male role models just cruel females that had mental

problems.

I ran away from home at thirteen wondering if it was true all men were ass holes

And lived on the street literally and they all had me by the age of fourteen I

Was emotionally wrecked from the pull to be a good girl and yet no one took better care of me then me.

And many a man was my white knight and shining armor !!! 

I had children by fifteen and was poor un educated and working hard to keep hope

and normalcy to my children.

They say Momma made miracles at Christmas and thanksgiving but it was

The way that I did it that they were clueless about.

Back then my welfare was $400  rent $ 425 and I had to choose to live.

Now welfare has not changed amounts but the rents are $900 at the least!!!

I have my children grown now and succeeding at life but I still

Need to keep my house and handle repairs so I am an escort still

I have hated this work and men and I have loved this work and men

But it boils down to is I'm an adult and it took care of me practically

All my life and I am one who believes it should be legalized in all

States and safe for all in all states even minors who would be blocked

from it then.

A bad mother would have her child watch Scooby doo in the living room while

She entertained dates not like a good mom who sends them to daycare and out of the situation!!! Like history repeating they put a woman in the town sqaure and ask her to be judged but we have to stop hurting women...

Poor single mothers need income and if they choose to work applaud.

This day in age when women are chastised for staying home to raise their kids

And called a gold digger if they don't make money on their own should be left

To do what they choose to become economically secure in their own right.

Fix society not the providers nobody can eradicates this field of work, we will

Not be placed out on the cold streets again and be vulnerable to the cities

dark elements we are out of the way of pedestrians and abuse.   

 We are in the safety and comfort now and so much so that we aren't

even seen by our neighbors as this society once wished.
