I decided to log into Facebook for the first time in years. I grew up in a part of Toronto with a lot of Jamaicans, Guyanese, Trinidadians etc so I went to school with them, and have them on my FB (I’ve had my Facebook since I was like 11, lmao)
A lot of the Caribbean girls I went to school with have children now, some had them when they were teenagers. Not one of them is married. They only post their kids but there’s no wedding pictures, mention of a husband..
I find this so strange. Is marriage just not a thing in their culture? African Americans are also the same from what I’ve seen. I will never understand having children out of wedlock being normalized. Why not make it official first?
