I'm standing there dropping my son off.

One of the parents comes up.

It was like, oh my God, I heard Oprah Winfrey talking about you last night on the news.

And it was a moment where I should have felt like pride, but I instantaneously thought about my son.

Because I was like, oh, parents are like, hey, your classmate's dad was on the news.

And by the way, he was in prison for this.

And I instantaneously was like, you know what?

He's in kindergarten.

I'll just tell him what it is in that language.

And then over the years, I've just continued to do it.

And like now...

He probably can tell my story better than me because I bring him to the events.

I bring him into the other side of it.

So he used to come to my job where I work with men and women coming out of prison and jails.

He goes into community events where I'm talking about gun violence and the things none of which his life looks like.

Um, but because that has happened consistently on his journey, he's now mature, you know, to the point where we can have real discussions about it.

You know, and I just think that's what, you know, whether it's any other thing, right.

Is, is with, with, with kids is, you know, sex is internet is all these things they're going to like, we can't.

We can't protect them the way maybe our parents could have protected us a little bit because it's just so invasive, right?

And they have so much access.
