1. Always remember that society has a stereotype of who you are and what you are. Therefore stay away from behavior that will prove those stereo-types right.
2. No loud talking on the bus with your companions or those who call you on your cell phone. Remember, a lady never shouts.Do not ever talk to anyone outside the bus while you are inside or vice versa. Avoid loud music at your house or in your car.That is not lady like.
3.Stop spoiling your baby, and saying stuff like, "No body mistreats my baby, my baby has to have anything he asks for". A baby has to be disciplined. Watch your baby in public places, and stop putting that man on the cell phone before the child. Always remember that the baby comes first, the man second. There is no exception to that rule.
4. Loose weight. The Black race has more fat women than all other races in the US.Child, loose that weight and keep them brothers in our midst, others they will flock to them skinny white chicks!

Feed your children before they go to school every morning. Do not rely on the school to feed them. That is not the job of teachers.
6. Give your children showers every morning. Never send your children to school with dirty faces and dirty clothes. Before you put that lipstick on your lips, and that makeup on your pretty face, make sure the children are clean. Remember, children come first, and you would rather be dirty yourself than your children be dirty.People will think you are very responsible if they see your children clean everyday, even if they sometimes see you yourself not so made up.If people see you clean while your children are not, they will think you are a very irresponsible woman.
7. Teach your children proper grammar. There is nothing Okay about "Where you at?", "We was going",
