Do Men These Days Know How To Be A Man??????????
This question or some version of it is being asked on the radio today in wake of Jovan Belcher, Kansas City Chief linebacker who murdered his girlfriend and then committed suicide. I do believe there is a disconnect here, and the disconnect is single parent homes. Now I come from a single parent home and my mom did the best she could to make me a man. Even I think she would admit she could not raise a man, that she needed help. Apparently Belcher was upset his girlfriend was out late at a concert. One thing there are too many guns out there but that's for another conversation. Another thing is babies having babies and these young parents have no clue how to raise a man, or a woman. Some still want to be out partying and not home taking care of the kids in the house. Men are to blame also that abandon their kids. Alot of this is Willie Lynch syndrone that has been perpetuated by the white man for centuries. I believe that boys being raised by these single parents don't know how to discipline them nor do they have a clue what a man is. Now I know some of my relatives and friends that have raised boys as single parents are going to get upset at me. The thing is sometimes the truth hurts and this is a lot of the problem, especially in the black community. These young men have no clue about how to handle adversity nor do they know how to deal with a woman. A good way to deal with this issue is the church. I was raised in the church knowing Jesus Christ, and I think that helped my mother tremendously in raising my brother and I. If we don't step forward as men and try to fix the issue, more and more of these domestic violence incidents will happen. Also women need to help also and not hold on so tight to their boys, try big brother programs and other programs in the community. We need to stop these young men from acting cowardly to solve a problem in their life, my only thing is with Belcher, if she did something so terrible to you for you to shoot her why not just leave her and start all over? Take care of your child and be there but breaking up with her is better than what you did to her by killing her and then yourself. So in conclusion men and women need to partner together to fix this issue. Let's hope these kind of things don't happen anymore. Men and women we need to step up and teach these young men how to be a man. Women you need to get out of the way and let other men teach your young men how to be men. This is my rant fotr today. God Bless and Peace to the Creatures. See you next time.
