. Then your uncle is f*ucking stupid also! Is it so difficult to wear a condom?? Really?! Why make all these babies... Spend MORE MORE money?! how does any of this make sense to a normal person?? You said I don't get the southern way? Your DAMN RIGHT I DON'T GET, nor do I want to get it.
you replicate what you know, chances are that Ronnie's father was a "seed spreader", and only showed up from time to time (not being a real "father") and his mother was "ok" with it. Then you may have other women related to Ronnie or that he saw when growing up, doing the same thing. So, that showed him that it was ok. I wouldn't know this for certain, but it's pure speculation.
This is the same reason why many dudes in the inner city have 6 kids, and no job, and the females have 1 or more kids and the father is not around, or by multiple men. They were taught this by observation as a child, so they replicate it.
