"I'm pregnant," said a young teen girl only the age of 16. As she started to cry she picked up her phone to call a man around the age of 67. When he answers she says," H-hey Carter I have something to tell you... I'm pregnant and the baby's yours." He immediately hung up in her face and blocked her as when she tried to call him back the call wouldn't go through. she was devastated and started crying as she started to think of how she would tell her parents that she's pregnant by her 67 year old sugar daddy who thinks she's 18 but doesn't know that she's really just a youg simple child. She sat in her room and just cried until she finally made a decision to go to Carter's job. When she got their she told him to give her some money so that she could give birth to a healthy baby and he said," NO you dirty slut I don't even know if the baby is mine." They go back and forth for five minutes until he slaps her and pushes her to the ground, she sits there crying and says," The least you can do for me is take me to get an abortion." He agrees and they get the baby aborted and they never talked again.

Sometimes I think I’ve lived too long. From a young age I was told to be careful what I do and how I do, being a black man in America makes you feel like you’re in danger at all times and every day, hour, minute, second, and breathe is blessing. I think I’ve lived too long to not feel comfortable as me to be comfortable living because even though I know I’m in danger to everyone else I’m the dangerous one. I think I’ve lived too long because I’ve had success which isn’t expected of someone of my dark skin. I think I’ve lived to long and I think it’s only a matter of time before my too long life becomes a too short life, a life filled with what ifs and maybe if I did. I think I’ve lived too long but I haven’t lived long enough. @Famewriter

Dear Writers and Readers,

We noticed some less-than-exemplary behavior on Prose today, which forced us to take action against some users. This is a gentle reminder that, while we try to remain as uncensored as possible, some forms of content are simply intolerable. Please note the following passage from our Terms of Service, under Prohibited Content:

Content that is unlawful, libelous, defamatory, obscene, pornographic, indecent, lewd, suggestive, harassing, threatening, abusive, inflammatory, fraudulent or otherwise objectionable, or invasive of privacy or publicity rights;

In today’s case, harassment was the keyword. We have taken steps to punish infringing users, and prevent future infringements. Note that we will not be adjudicating arguments, disagreements, or squabbles between users, unless we deem the language used to be grossly abusive or inflammatory.

1. We have added a report button to all posts. You’ll find the button in the lower-right options menu (indicated by an ellipsis icon) of every post. If you encounter a post that violates the Terms of Service, please report it.

2. We have instituted a temporary posting restriction policy against first-time offenders. If we find that you have been harassing folks, spamming, or posting any other sort of Prohibited Content, you will be prevented from posting, commenting, and sending messages for a minimum of three days. Repeat offenders will be permanently banned.

3. We have added an internal feature to remove offensive posts. Posts that violate our Terms of Service, or that provoke grossly abusive or toxic comment threads, will be marked as such and removed after 24 hours. During that period, commenting on such posts will be disabled.

Refer to Section 10 of our Terms of Service for all forms of Prohibited Content: https://theprose.com/p/legal/terms

Happy Writes,
