Doing the Right Thing -- Now
I am so thankful that you are on the radio and are out there fighting and trying to protect children and the values and morals in today's society. I am a perfect example of the kind of woman you talk about who had a child out of wedlock with a man who I hardly knew at 21 years old and then decides to shack up with a man who isn't the father of their child.

I am 32 years old now and thanks to you I am changing my life around and doing the right thing for my son. I am moving back in with my mom (my father passed away 9 years ago) and am not dating until my son is 18 years old. Everything you say about shack up relationships are so true and every time you talked about it I felt like you were talking directly to me. I finally woke up and realized how the choices in my life were really affecting son. My son's father was never involved in his life and he also passed away few years ago. And to top it off the shack up boyfriend I chose was also not interested in my son only in me. But I am very thankful to have run across your show 2 years ago and have been a faithful listener since then. It took me 2 years to get rid of the shack up boyfriend but I did it and will never ever make that mistake again.

Even though I acted like it didn't bother me, being in a shack up relationship did and I felt embarrassed introducing this person to people as my "boyfriend" even though we lived together. I promise to make my son's life better and mine and I don't think I could have done it without you and my mom. My mom always gave me great advice but I never listened and just thought she didn't understand things were different now not like when she was growing up. Thankfully my son is a good kid, he's kind, compassionate, and very sweet. I vow to only be my kid's my mom from now on.

Keep up the good work because you are making a difference in this world.
