*sigh* I am going to post the lyrics below, where Nas expressed his feelings of how he is BASICALLY taking the blame for 17 year old Destiny Jones' actions. I just wish for him, like many young fathers, they would have learned this earlier and not too late. (Mind you, the 17 year old instagramed a box of condoms by her bedside and named her first car Cocaine...but Mommy is to the rescue)...See this one incident of Carmen is reminding me of those mothers who forget it takes "a village to raise a child" and even if their child does wrong, NO ONE better not say a word. Remember those kids whose parents would come defend them at school, even fight a teacher, over their child's bad behavior...okay but I digress. SN: Any mother would protect their child of course, but I have a sense this is protection + bad blood + some other things...eh. But it could be just me. There's always 3 sides to a story and in this case four; but at least he is admitting to his shortcomings.



Carmen says Nas did not say anything positive about Destiny but he did.
 He called her "a honest kid," stated he wouldn't believe she'd do anything inappropriate (i.e. "herself underdressed") and blamed her actions on himself for not being there and his character and actions throughout the years. Therefore he states, "I can't leave her defenseless"; as in saying, listen, this is my fault, not hers. Carmen then talks about "Destiny's feelings and she's a child." I can understand that. But if she's a child, was she disciplined? The pictures she posted weren't those a "child" should post. Also, I remember being a teenager. Some things I would not dare let my parents see...why? Not just because I was scared but I respected them. I want to ask Carmen, how do you feel? I wouldn't dare post something where my mother could be ridiculed nor would I disrespect her, especially in public. And my mother always said, "If you're grown enough to do it, you're grown enough to take the consequences."
