"boy mom" One of my contributions to society is when I have a son, I will not be a boy mom. I will just be a mother with a son. I'll be a mother to a boy. That is it. Something about the boy mom title just gives me the ick. Y'all be I don't know. I don't know, I don't know. No shade. No shade. I don't know. Like, and don't get me wrong, I'm not one of the ones that's like, oh, I don't want no boys. I only want girl. I want both. I want boys and girls. But I will not be a boy mom. And if it don't apply, let it fly. But I know what I'm talking about.
