Yes. Not having a father or strong male figure does all kind of damage to young Black children.
No one wants to talk about this.
This fatherless generation of Black children are all fukked up in the head. Which is why we have the exponential growth of the underdeveloped minds epidemic in the community.
What? They been talking about this, and from my experience it isn't true.
I used to think not having my father around made things harder, but I only said that because that's all I heard. From rap music, to the church, to the media. It was when I started thinking for myself, and observing everyone else around me, that I saw that theory didn't make sense. Yeah, as boys we need men to guide us with things like sex, how to deal with all the energy we have, but having good character knows no gender, its just a character trait.
When I realized this, its when I noticed a lot of my issues, and a lot of the people around me, came from our mothers, including the girls. That's when I asked myself how can someone who isn't there, cause you to do destructive things? It makes no sense. The only way that can happen is if the mother is blaming the father, directly or indirectly, and you pick up on this, and now its all the fathers fault.
After I realized this, I started noticing women raising their boys in a certain way. They raise them to be weak. When I write weak, I mean to either be straight up soft by spoiling them. Or they are too hard on them, and the boys grow up thinking being a man is not crying, and all the dumb shyt I hear some women say being a man is. The way they say it is "stop being a punk". Or they say things that plays with the child's head like " what do other people do", "what will the other kids think". Women are master manipulators, and in our case they played the men to not even see the bullshyt they are creating. The sad thing is, its hurting them too.
Again, this is hitting mainstream America as well. This is why I can't get involved seriously with a chick who has kids, as soon as I say " don't do that" I'm the bad guy, and they tell me to get my own damn kids.
