The “30 Rock” and former SNL star appears to be on his mom’s bad side. In his book entitled “I Am the New Black”, Tracy talks candidly about his upbringing, being raised in the ghetto, and his rise to stardom. In this tell-all, Tracy has apparently talked too much and has his mom in an uproar. What would you do in this situation? Would you help Mom or not?

There is no way I would ever speak privately and especially publicly speak against my own mother. Regardless what the problem may be he should simply give her the money she needs and let that be the end of the story. He needs to realize that forgiveness benefits him more than it benefits her.

Interesting response, @Spencer. You have a good point. Whatever it is he’s holding onto, nothing negates the fact that it’s his mom.

I’m sure he does have his reasons. But what about helping his mom? I guess we don’t know the full story. Wonder if he has helped her in the past, and she continues to need help? Maybe she sees him as a crutch?

EXACTLY , THIS WHOLE NOTION THAT WOMAN ARE BEYOND REPROACH BECAUSE THEY HAVE A UTERUS IS JUST RUBBISH AND FATHERS ARE DISPOSABLE NUT-SACKS IS JUST A JOKE. SOCIETY WANTS US TO PUT NO VALUE ON FATHERHOOD AND EVERYTHING ON MOTHERS ALMOST TO THE POINT OF SAINTHOOD WHICH IS SUCH SEXIST , DOUBLE STANDARD AND CHAUVINISTIC MINDSET THERE IS. NO WONDER VIOLENCE WITHIN FAMILIES AMONGST HUSBANDS AND WIVES HAVE DRASTICALLY INCREASE BECAUSE OF THE INEQUITY TOWARDS MEN AND THEIR ESTRANGEMENT TOWARDS THEIR FAMILIES BECAUSE OF THE FAMILY COURT SYSTEM WHO DEVALUES THEM AND PEDESTALIZE MOTHERS WHEN IF U ASK ANY MEDICAL STUDENT , THEY WILL TELL U THAT WOMEN AREN’T ANY MORE MATERNAL THAN MEN WHEN IT COMES TO RAISING A CHILD.
