A single mother recently shared a grateful post thanking God for blessing her with a loving stepfather for her daughter. What should have been a moment of encouragement and positivity instead drew ridicule from some users online. Rather than acknowledging the value of commitment, stability, and care in a blended family, critics chose to demean both the woman and the man involved.

One comment in particular stood out: “She don later see mumu.”

This remark, which implies the man is foolish for marrying a single mother, reflects a deeply disrespectful and toxic mindset. It reduces a serious, responsible life decision to mockery and shames men for choosing love and family. Such rhetoric reinforces stigma against single mothers and discourages positive male involvement in children’s lives. If society truly values family and responsibility, then narratives that normalize ridicule over respect must be firmly challenged.
