Seven out of ten black kids grow up without fathers. There has never been a greater number of voluntary absence of fathers from their children’s life than there is in the black community. When dads are not around, life gets lonely, hopeless and confusing for the children that are left behind. So for these fatherless kids the future becomes unsure as they unknowingly continue the vicious cycle. The cycle of a tribe lost in the shadows plagued by broken homes. No fathers to teach our sons how to grow up to be men. How to respect and treat women. Most important of all to teach our sons how to grow and become real fathers themselves. No fathers to teach our daughters their true values and how to carry and respect themselves. No fathers to teach our daughters what not to except from boys or men because they’re worth so much more. Without a father the child is left to learn the other side of life on their own. So our daughters are getting pregnant by 16. While our sons become missing dead beats by 18. So the cycle stays in motion. Because now the child he leaves behind never out lives the pain of not having a father and what mother felt. He or she gets blame for everything mommy and daddy couldn’t be. Nothing in life is gained or discovered without sacrifice. We have sacrificed many generations of black families, a change has to come. It is time for us as young black men to take a stand and break the cycle of missing fathers. It is time to learn and discover how to be real men. Fathers. We may not begin to change until we are confronted with the reality that we are repeating our father’s behavior pattern that we promised ourselves we would end. “ It’s never too late to do the right thing.” ------------------>> Be A Father "It's never too late to do the right thing" campaign for fatherless kids and single moms coming soon.We have to take responsibility as fathers Don't Let Your Child Be One of Those 7
