“I Was Just A Kid Myself Back Then” – At 16, the Mother of Fox News host Lawrence Jones faced the biggest decision of her life: Giving up school, Friends, to KEEP him in this world – A story that moved viewers to tears with Love and Responsibility – Touching millions and leaving a deep lesson for everyone!
In a deeply emotional live interview on Fox News, Tameria – the mother of young anchor Lawrence Jones – shared why she decided to keep her baby boy when she was just a 16-year-old pr3gnant teen.
The topic of ab0rtion has been fiercely debated in the U.S., especially after the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization case. Amid this national debate, Lawrence Jones invited his mom to appear on “Lawrence Jones Cross Country.” He shyly admitted, “I didn’t want to share you with the world, but I had to have you on.” Then he asked, “Why did you choose to have me?”
Tameria explained that although she had been taught about s3x and what happens if you have unprotected s3x, when it happened, she felt: “It was my responsibility, not my mom’s or grandparents’. I had to step up.” So, she let go of her love for basketball – where she had been a star player – and lost friends to become a young mother.
Even knowing it would be a tough road, Tameria never regretted her choice. She shared her secret to staying strong: “The more I prayed, the more I talked to God, and the more honest I was about my struggles, I had a village that came along.”
In the end, Lawrence said softly: “I’m so grateful that you made that decision.” To which Tameria replied warmly: “I love you, son.”
