As of late, I've been having indepth conversations with single mothers, especially those with sons, for mentoring program. It really troubles me to see how many males are not positively active in their child(ren)'s life/lives.
I just read a sister's post about the love for her son. She stated that eventhough she's been a single mother for several years, her and her son haven't missed anything... Wow, is that what we've come to? Black men are so absent that our women have learned to accept it and thrive?
One thing I'm learning in my conversations and experiences with single mothers, women are amazing and will do anything for their children. However, behind the scenes, they are hurting and suffering from the lack of a MAN (not just a male) being in the household.
Brothers, we HAVE to do better and teach our boys how to do better. Each one teach one after you reach one...
POWER UP!
