Listen to these ignorant girls lala and youy will have a boat load of kids and no REAL commitment its not about religion. Its aboutintegrity and not always happiness because what always feels good is not good for you. Black women kill me with having babies for men without having something in return which is dignity

Essence is not supposed to cover these types of families based on the moral or ethical code of who? The readers of Essence are diversified, come from multi-ethnic backgrounds and different family compositions. Yes, they should finally committ and marry however, they appear to be very happy "family". Some of you people are draconian--trying to suck everyone into your big dark hole of misdirected anger, bitterness and just plain unhappiness. It sucks to be you!

"The Nuyorican tie to African-Americans in New York City is said to be due to intermarriage with African-Americans and shared neighborhoods" WHICH MEANS BOTH HER PARENTS HAVE BLACK IN THEM WHICH MEANS...LA LA....IS BLACK AND PUERTO RICAN...

Beautiful home! Maybe she doesn't consider herself black because she is Puerto Rican. La La is Nuyorican/Puerto Rican and so are both her parents. Nuyoricans share cultural traits with African-Amercans.

ITS SAD HOW OUR BLACK MEN ARE NOTORIOUS FOR NOT WANTING TO COMMIT. TO SHACK. TO CHEAT ON WIFE. CHEAT ON GIRLFRIENDS. OR ONCE AGAIN JUST SHACK. BUT WANT THE REST OF THE WORLD TO RESPECT THEM WHEN MANY OF THEM DON'T RESPECT THEIR BETTER HALVES BY MARRYING OR THEIR CHILDREN BY CREATING A MARRIED HOME WITH A FAMILY OR RESPECT THEMSELVES BY NOT LETTING THESE AFOREMENTIONED BE SAID ABOUT THEM. IF WE WANT TO MOVE THINGS AS A PEOPLE, WE'VE GOT TO DO SO AS INDIVIDUALS. STARTING WITH THE FAMILY. CARMELO AS EXAMPLE SHOW YOUR SON HOW TO TREAT WOMEN. SHOW THE WORLD THAT BLACK MEN DON'T ALWAYS LIVE IN AN IMMATURE MINDSET WELL INTO ADULTHOOD....DON'T SHACK. MARRY.

Why do we continue to look for reasons to put people down? There's a lot to be happy about in these pictures so stop hatin' on their lifestyle. Reap and enjoy the blessing in how Carmelo and LaLa choose their lifestyle and raise their son together. Where is your glory, your respect, your appreciation for their commitment to Kiyan and each other. My husband and I are raising three children (my step-children) it took me 11 years before I could say yes but it did not diminish my love and commitment to him and our children. Grow up America and find joy in them sharing their blessing with us. La and Melo keep doing what you're doing and thank you for being a positive example to our youth. Marriage is one aspect of commitment ... doing positive things with your finances, not being on drugs, and actively being in your child's life is what makes a real man and a real woman. I'm one Essense's reader proud that this magazine continues to show diversity and strength.

I think that heffa is going to drain Usher until she cant drain him no more. He shoulda listened to his mother cuz his mother knows trash when she sees it. Remember Usher blood is thicker than water, although u do make beautiful kids. I will always be a fan but i wish u the best baby. I luv u baby
