Inspired by a GMA segment this morning...
Teen boys discuss the pressures of becoming a man: 'Confusing' and 'frustrating'
We talk a lot about black male mental health on here and how it's often dismissed and trivialized ... And how black men need to do better with sharing with one another about when theyre feeling off...
...well the first glimpse young black males get about how to share, as a man, with another man comes from you. How many of yall can actually say you've created a non intimidating safe space for your sons to share their growing pains without feeling shamed or threatened?
Have you been teaching them how to build a higher emotional awareness? And healthy ways to manage challenging emotions?
Or does mom get all the feelings and emotional connection?
Speak on it.
