fanMAIL: Little Jayson Gives Us All Hope

Loyal reader Marteeta C. sent in this video of her adorable 3-year-old son, Jayson, after watching this disgraceful video of a child being videotaped “riding it” to Ciara’s song.

Jayson gives us all inspiration, and gives me hope that all is not lost in our community as long as we have parents like Marteeta who instills values and importance of education in our children!

Hi Sandra,

Just watched that video of that little girl and I weep for my people! We should be educating our youth not destroying them with all of the graphic sexual images on TV, videos, video games etc.

This is my son, Jayson in the attached video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atM9T0YOvy4
he was 3 years old in the video and he better not ever bring a little “heffa” like that to our home. My husband and I believe in training our children to be assets to this society and not liabilities.

Have a great day Sandra!
Sincerely,
Marteeta

PS(I know that the word is heifer…I can spell and I happen to be a college grad)

Another reader emailed me to say she knows the father — yes, the father — who videotaped his daughter performing sexually suggestive dance moves. Apparently the child’s mother is in prison.

I urged the reader to call her local child welfare authorities to report the father for uploading that video to the Internet and exploiting a minor child.

    _________________________________________________

    Co-sign 100%. There are a lot of kids just like Jayson but nobody ever wants to recognize them. People, including blacks, focus too much on the negative instead of the positive when it comes to our people. You are exactly right: Not every black person is a stereotype. But, until people start uplifting our young people and praising them for doing well, as opposed to shining so much light of the ones that aren’t, we will continue to be seen as nothing more than a stereotype. Not all of our young men and women are thugs and hoochie momma’s.

    I will also say that it is not right for a grown woman to call a little girl a ‘heffa.’ She is a child being taught by her parent that this kind of behavior is okay and appropriate. Children aren’t born knowing anything; you have to teach them and show them the right way to go. This poor child obviously doesn’t have anyone to do that. It is the parent’s fault. People are always so quick to tear down children for the way they act and go on and on about how out of control they are. Well, every child is a direct result of who raised them and the environment they were raised in. This girl’s future is not looking too good. Will anybody be surprised if she ends of pregnant before graduating HS? And, her dad will walk around piss and blaming everybody–but himself–for her promiscuous behavior. This mess is taught from a very young age.

    I would have to disagree. I have friends that were pushed to do well as well as my brother and sister and they are on the path to nowhere. It has to do with the child and where they want there life to go.

    Yes @Daisy I am well aware of that.

    MY POINT was SR advertised the football camp and I asked why the celebs never offered other camps…and SR said I was being ungrateful.

    I can’t see the video since I’m at work but by your comments he sounds like a smart kid. Now the only thing I dont agree with is the mother calling the little girl a “heffa”…Now I’ve called a little girl a heffa myself but she was well within a reasonable age range (15 or 16) in which she knew that her behavior and antics where completely and utterly out of order lol…The girl in the previous tape is obviously influenced by her surroundings. I think its important that kids are well rounded in both academics and sports. Academics ALWAYS come first but heck if I have a kid one day and they are excelling in sports I’m not gonna say cool off on that. They better have their homework done before they go to practice tho :) . I say that because I’m a health nut and I was at the Y and this little boy (no more than 8 or 9) was waddleing around and could barely breath much less walk, poor thing had to bave been at least 200 lbs and sure enough here come his momma righ behind him weighing in at about 340!

    :lol: that reminds me of a story my boyfriend told me. His mom did not care about sports at all, but he played football and baseball. In high school he forgot to do some project and she went to the field and pulled him off and told the coach off when he said something to her :lol:

    I play softball on so many teams and I think I wore my daughter out at the fields this year. I hope I don’t turn her off from it since I play so much

    @ bama shoot my momma did not play. I got a C on a test after I got a Sega Genesis and she straight hid it on me. I tried to recruit my friends to help me find it after school but nobody could…I had a $5 reward and everything..I could only play it on the weekends.

    I wish I was more in sports growning up because I absolutely love them now. I run all the time sometimes up to 3 miles daily.In school I was more into arts and I was in the band. Sometimes u have to push your kid or let me say, have them try a sport to see if they like it. Now if they dont pull the them out, it they do then good for them! My mom didnt push me to try sports so I didn’t, but had she maybe I would have liked it.

    Funny thing about tennis. My brother and I started playin one summer because they didn’t have any basketball goals where we were vacationing. My Dad was mad at first, then he started playin. He hasn’t stopped since and that was like 20 yrs ago.

    Key Word- HUSBAND- The emailer states that her and her HUSBAND- not baby daddy- not single parent home. People from homes that are single parented and have no fathers or strong father figures are prone to put ignorance on the web. There is something lacking with whoever video taped the little girl and put it on the web I hope to think that the person video taping didnt think about child predators who would find that sexually amusing- (maybe ther person who taped it finds that stimulation) All we can do is pray for the little girl.

    :cosign: at Cinderella’s 1st comment and I read halfway through the comments before I had to stop so if this has been said I’m sorry but Jayson is an adorable smart child but at the same time there are more Jayson’s in this country than there are the little dancing girl. Unfortunately, many of the kids who are well mannered, smart and all around good kids do not receive the same attention as those kids who can shake their ass and recite rap lyrics :shrugs: its sad but true, also many of the children who are like Jayson also have parents be they single mothers or both who would never send their childs photos or videos on a major website for any and everybody to see and do God knows what to their childs image. Not throwing shade but was this about showing that smart well mannered black kids do exist and countering the previous video or was it more about putting handsome Jayson out there for personal gain? The entire email appeared to be praising her son while bashing this other child who has zero control over what her parents have taught her and encourage her to do.


  129. 129

    And second, I agree the video of that little girl was highly inappropriate however suggesting that the father could be molesting her and should lose custody on a forum such as this is irresponsible. Time has proven how broad a readership this site has and people are generally distrustful of a man raising a child anyway despite the fact that the vast majority of men would never molest a child especially not their OWN child. Putting this thought out there without proof could result in a witchhunt against him and the child being put through the trauma of an investigation which I know from personal experience is highly traumatic and/or being ripped from what may be the only home she’s known and put in another place that could actually be worse. She’s dancing as a grown woman true but there are many out there who have no issue with such dances from a child but would never molest or harm a child. I know several within my own family and I’m sure everyone on here knows at least one person like that as well. Its inappropriate true, my kids won’t be dancing that way and yes he should have had sense not to tape it, but if he’s one of those who doesn’t believe that kind of dancing is wrong, and he was proud his baby could dance and decided to share (like Jaysons mom and other parents) who are any of you to say he should raise his child? The fact that he is raising her alone while her mom is locked up speaks on his character cause many men would not have done that at all and to think he could lose his child over it cause some women on a website who know NOTHING about him other than this video is crazy. Molestation is too serious an allegation to just throw out there based off a video like this. Their lives could be ruined, his reputation gone, this childs life ripped apart over something that could very well and is likely to be untrue. Once rumors of molesting get out most people NEVER regain the trust and rep they had before even after a not guilty verdict. That’s one charge a person can never live down so be careful how you throw it out there. Sorry for the long post, actually I’m not but still

    KrayZKat says:

    @Ms. Everything – I’m going to disagree with your second comment. I think this man (if true) should be investigated. I’m not saying he should have his child taken without proof that anything is going on, but I would not throw caution to the wind because he “might” be clean.

    What sane man do you know that would: 1) Film a child, and worst, HIS child gyrating to a song totally inappropriate for a child to not only hear, but for a child to even emulate, 2) Any man that would watch a child dance in such a provocative way may not physically molest a child, but something is clearly wrong with a man that would even sit and watch this debacle.

    Ms. Everything, the fact that he wouldn’t see anything wrong with this child dancing like this makes me wonder what else he wouldn’t think is wrong, i.e. for all we know, he could be molesting her, filming her with other boys her age, etc. We don’t know. Some men think there’s nothing wrong with having sex with their children either. Children are being molested at a huge rate. I’m not saying he’s doing that to his child, but since he was stupid enough to put some garbage like this out on the Internet, he should be made to explain his actions.

    JMO.

    KrayZKat says:

    In all this, I didn’t even mention how cute and adorable this lil guy is. I’m so proud to see parents who raise their children right and encourage them to learn.


  133. 133

    @KrayZ I actually know several hood immature men with daughters that can dance like grown women in the strip clubs (who learned from they trif mamas and tv) who’ve sat around watching them dance and haven’t said anything because where they’re from that unfortunately is not outside the norm. But they would never in a million years molest their child! This is inappropriate to me, you and most grown mature adults with sense, however, in communities and projects around the country unfortunately this is a normal everyday sight to see and the same mothers/fathers cheering it on, will also video tape and show friends/family, call the kids in the living room to do it in front of guests and now that we are in the age of you tube these same people are uploading it for others to see because that’s their baby, she can dance and they are proud of it. Again, I’m not defending it and I’ve spoken out enough on kids and music period but to go as far as call the father a molester? Based off just this? I can’t do that or support it because chances are he is not. Before Sandra updated to say that the girls father posted this and filmed it people were jumping on the mom, single mothers were brought up, babies having babies, a long list of reasons for this but not one time did anyone say she was being molested until it was said this was done by the father. To me that’s just showing the prejudices that people have towards fathers rasing kids. I know women who won’t let their childs father even change their daughters diaper out of fear. I won’t live my life treating all men as pedophiles and that’s so unfair to the 97% of men who don’t get off from children. I know too many men who are good men and capable of raising young women properly to accuse any man of molestation without fact and I was molested but again I have good positive men in my life and always have. I was practically raised by my uncles along with my other female cousins. They weren’t the ones who touched me. That’s not an accusation to be taken lightly and made on a blog for someone at home to run with this and potentially destroy these peoples lives when he could be a good father in all other aspects. The video is bad, yes but is she naked? Is she being forced? Is he dancing with her? Does she look happy? All of those are things to be considered. The chances of this being what I stated above are far greater than the chance that he’s hurting this baby so its very very irresponsible with the vast readership of this blog to throw that out. If those who made the allegations of molestation thought she was being molested why didn’t they say so in the other post? Why wait til its mentioned that the father taped it? That’s a nasty stereotype that has hurt many families and millions of men. More men have been unfairly and wrongly accused and CONVICTED of sex crimes than any other crime and these men NEVER get their lives back, they are marked for life so to just say that without knowing is wrong and I cannot will not support that ever. Women rape and molest too so if you arentg gonna suspect the mom don’t suspect the dad


  134. 134

    Let me say though before someone hops on and gets ignorant with my comment (not you KrayZ) and tries to say my children are gonna get molested or something stupid like that.. I won’t raise my kids in fear of anything, kids must be kids so I raise them to be smart and cautious. You won’t catch any of my children sitting on a male’s lap regardless of who it is, nor do they get extremely cuddly with them. My kids don’t go anywhere unless I know who they are going with, where it is and who all is going to be there. I’m strict but I have an open relationship and they tell me all that happens each and every day plus I ask questions. I’m known for popping up unannounced wherever they are be it school, daycare, babysitter, friend or family member’s house. I wanna see what happens when I’m not expected. I don’t play when it comes to my babies at all but I won’t allow us to live in fear or deny them male role models because of what happened to me in my past.

    Also to add to your question and my earlier comment, I was at a bbq on the 4th and al the kids (minus mine) were up on stage popping and shaking looking like the latest video hoes. All the other adults male and female were cheering them on like it was nothing and some of them kids make this lil one look like she’s praise dancing in the house of the Lord. I thought some things about the other parents for allowing it but the babies being molested? Never crossed my mind, not from dancing. There’s a huge fraction of our communities that think this is normal dancing but are raising good kids overall who dance bad but pull straight A’s with perfect conduct, attendance and manners who haven’t been molested. Go visit the projects or the hood, you’ll find about 20 of these little girls… sad but true

    KrayZKat says:

    @Ms. Everything – I overstand what you are saying; however, I wouldn’t put it past anyone in this day and age. We just don’t know, and when someone is stupid enough to put these images out there of their childing, whether they think it’s cute or not (others might not see it as cute, but sexy) they are going to draw suspicion to themselves. No one suspected a father would be behind this, so I think it’s pretty natural that some eyebrows would be raised.

    Ms. Everything, I know there are wonderful single fathers (and single mothers) out there holding it down. I would never think that just because a man is a single father raising a child that he would be a child molester. I would, however, question the judgement of anyone – male or female – who would think this kind of dancing is appropriate.

    BTW, I know you do not approve of this either, so please don’t think I’m attacking you. I’ve read your “pro-child/pro-parenting” comments and applaud them. I remember reading your comments and thinking that you are an excellent mother. Lord know our children need more of them. I’m an activist for children because I’ve seen them abused before. I HATE child abusers (male or female).

    Ms. Everything – I’m sorry to hear about what happened to you. Only a sick individual would do something like that. I can imagine you are sensitive to issues such as these so I understand your point. It’s a matter of perspective. Like you stated, some look at these dances and think they are cute because maybe they’ve been so exposed (kind of like desensitized) to it. It’s seen everyday on music videos and if children aren’t properly monitored, they pick it up.

    The kind of mother you are is the kind of mother that kids need. Lord knows there are so many thing out there to distract them and draw them away. Unless a parent is vigilant in monitoring what their children are doing, anything can happen.

    My mother never allowed us to sit in men’s laps either. In fact, she never had men in and out of our house when we were growing up. I respect parents who take their job seriously because raising kids in no joke.

    Thanks for sharing, Ms. Everything!


  138. 138

    Thanks and I get where you’re coming from as well. It just rubbed me the wrong way coming from the original post where the big issue was bad parenting to this one where people were throwing out molestation and saying call CPS all because its now known that the father is raising her and filmed it
