You Can't Raise A Man Novels & Stories

Billy too. It’s no one’s fault, if it’s true, but I still don’t know how to feel. I don’t have the money or the means to properly have and raise a baby. There’s so much that goes into caring for another person, but a baby takes that level of care to a whole new plane.

"What it’s true, she hardly ever smiles, never laughs and she takes pleasure in others' pain. Thus, ROBOT!'' "Keep it up and I am telling her now, and she will have a volunteer for today's lessons" the older graying man stated. "She's a good girl. She just doesn't put up with any bullshit. And she was raised with all men. Her 6 brothers and I did not do much in the way of teaching empathy and sympathy. And most of all she doesn't take too kindly to men treating women like dirt."

He tried to be quiet but he couldn't stop himself from raising his voice. Because if he's your man, he won't force the woman against her will because that's what he learned from his daddy when he got a mindset of the world he lives in. His parents have a different story compared to the other couples which is not tragic, but there is a lesson to be learned.

"Why can't a woman have two men?" Paige jokingly replied, "I'd like to know that too." Noticing her serious tone, he lifted him into his arms and firmly declared, "You can't. You can only have me."

"I can't go on," Adam said again, saying the same thing over and over. "I won't be able to watch Ethan grow up to be like me, to be assholes like you guys," said the man, starting to tremble, after all he was still a son, determined by his own father, which son would be able to? "I didn't tell you to love that woman, I raised you guys just for this, why did I raise three useless sons like you?" "Oh come on, why do I keep getting dragged in? This is a problem for you two, just solve it in a manly way." Mark opened his voice again, as if he was heating a pile of coals.

— It sounds too sad, why are we listening? — What you just said reminded me of this song, even if it has no direct relation with what we are living. The point is that we are taught not to do many things, including cry, apologize, recognize mistakes, show feelings... — My parents always told me that I couldn't cry, dance, find a handsome guy, or love one. In fact, I always heard that I couldn't do a lot of things because I am a man...

“That changes nothing, you aren’t going through with that shit, we need to find a better fix for this.” “Well, what do you suggest? I don’t have the capacity to raise this child. No father, no job, no husband, I don’t even have a life, why would I suffer only to bring in a child to the world that would also suffer?” I queried, pain in my heart as I spoke.

"Why do you ask that question?" "You know, I didn't raise you up like I should raise a girl. I make you learn self-defense and archery when other girls your age are busy with social lives. I make you read a lot when your peers are either painting their nails or shopping for clothes. I'm sure your Mum wouldn't approve of the way I raise you."
