Yeah, that's exactly right. The most important parent to a child is the same sex parent. And if we're looking at violence, predominantly it comes from the men. So the boys grow up and they either don't have a model within their home or they're, like you said, they have a model of a abusive father figure that they repeat. And so this is basically the outcome.
And a lot of times that violent outburst is a result of being frustrated. Maybe they're not being seen. Maybe they're looking for attention. Maybe something is physically or sexually happening to them.
so these are various reasons as to why they start going into a in a violent path on top of that you have external influences so gang culture for example it's a way for young men to feel some sort of camaraderie to have some sort of direction there's usually an older male model within that group of young men who instructs the younger boys
So there's usually something that ties to it, starting from their home, their home life. And I always say a happy child isn't conducting themselves in a violent manner. So something is going on.
Well, see, that's the thing, I don't get a lot of pushback about it because people know this, they understand this. It's just that it's a massive problem and to resolve it, it's about looking at ourselves as the individual. As each individual family has to take responsibility for their conduct and even more so how they approach family planning.
And much of what I've been writing about is talking about parental selfishness, making family about the adults instead of the children. So the adults get to act like children, they get to act whimsical, sleep with whoever, procreate without a plan, and chase all types of dreams that they want.
And the children are expected to respond like adults, just understand adult dynamics, adult relationships, and they just get dragged along because mommy or daddy makes a choice and they have to deal with it.
That's exactly it. I think we've lost one of the most important aspects of love and when it comes to relationships, and it's the willingness to sacrifice. And that's what we're supposed to do for our children. We're supposed to sacrifice for them.
And a lot of these marriages, I mean, I'm sure you've dealt with this, where you're listening to their problems and you're like, I mean, yes, it's a problem, but you can resolve it. But someone is hellbent on separating the family and someone has too much pride. Someone is seeing maybe they already started looking outside the marriage and they just want to end it so they can start over.
But they're thinking about everything else except sacrificing their pride, their ego, their sexual appetite, sacrificing those things for their children. And so what I'm trying to encourage is before you make a rash decision, Or a big decision, maybe something that you've thought about for quite some time. Have you thought about it from your child's perspective?
Because I think as adults, we forget what it's like to be a kid. And your parents are your world. And when you divorce, it's literally like the world splitting in half. And that's a detrimental thing to experience.
Yes, that's correct. I do think having an outside male role model can be beneficial. And what you explained before, as far as the pushback from single mothers, I think the difference is that I'm a product of a single parent home. I'm the exact child who grew up without his father.
And I explain the adverse effects for me, dealing with mental health issues, being admitted into a mental hospital at the age of eight for suicidal ideation. Like all these different things, suffering from this, this is a byproduct of a chaotic life stemming from single parenthood.
You know, ending up homeless twice as a child, watching my mother struggle because she's the only one taking care of us and she's a single income earner. And there is no superhero, you know, cheer that you can give my mother and no one would wish that a woman, especially me, I would never wish for a woman to go through what my mother went through to take care of us.
Yeah, I started writing about race and obviously my first book, Black Victor and Black Victor, talking about race and being more open about it. The reason I started commenting on DEI was because after George Floyd, everyone pretended that wanting a colorblind society was improbable and that there was something wrong with that.
And then all of a sudden we must, on a very superficial level, treat each other, give each other benefits, or go after someone simply because of their skin color, which is the opposite lesson we were supposed to learn from the civil rights movement. The civil rights movement was about blanket discrimination. It didn't matter. It wasn't, well, you can't discriminate against the blacks.
It was discrimination, period. And so the lesson that I learned as a child, primarily growing up in the late 80s and 90s, is that we were supposed to look at each other as individuals. And that black person might be a good person, might be a bad person. That white person might be good or bad.
They're an individual, and they're allowed to express themselves in a particular way, and I can judge them by their character. But with DEI, it makes everything incredibly superficial, and it's also tinged with racism, but in more of a condescending tone towards black people. So even the white progressives who are championing black Americans like me
There is a tinge of racism, a bigotry of low expectation that they still place upon me because they have to do it for me because I'm incapable of doing it because of the quote-unquote system.
Yeah, I think it's important to look at the progress. I think that's what makes me proud to be an American is the progress. So even if I was to grant every narrative that they have pre-civil rights era back into slavery and all of that, even if I was to grant America was this horrible place, let's just say they're 100% true. Well, today it isn't. Today it's a land of progress.
