Is Marion skipping 2007 ?

The progeny do not have to be world-class or national-class to be highly successful in HS.

Good point.

So if may we may presume that Obadele Thompson is the father and TM is the father of her first-born, that's gonna be one lucky High School where the Marion family ends up.

Two kids from two different dads that she's not married to, and no dad in the home?

A good outcome would just be having them involved in sports at all and out of trouble, regardless of the level of their performance.

She is married (Obadele ), and is currently with the father (Obadele) of the child that is yet to be born. Regardless of the family makeup, a responsible, attentive parent(s) will aid more in their children's success than simply having 2 in the home.

Which still isn't nearly as good as having a responsible, attentive mother and father in the home.

Just curious, but why would you ASSUME that the intact mother and father are NOT responsible and attentive and that an absentee parent IS?
