Every young boy needs a father. I find it amazing that some men defer the raising of their children to their wives. A boy needs a male role model in his life and respects his father differently from his mother. A boy fears his father and backs down.

My nephews whose father (AUN) passed many years ago behave differently when I tell them to do something that their mother has already told them to do. They know that I am not kidding and will deliver the on my threats.

So to save our young boys, we need to all be better role models for them and take care of them.

thats how it is some one has to teach you how to live life be it your aabti some needs you to teach you how to drive how to stay on the right path how 2 shave , teach you islam , but when i see in london so many single mothers
we are adopting the african american bantu culture where the Somali male is useless

Emperior,

True saxiib very true.

I worry the most for the boys who do not become as successful as the girls who face a lot more pressure.

WELL, hooyo and aabo both beat the shid outta me when I was younger, so i dunno i got the same fear level

What they need is a parent who is loving, supportive and empathetic to their needs. A parent who spends time with them, installing values,stability,encouraging their interests and fostering them independence.Which is why women are better able to do this than men.And being "a REAL man" will come naturally, or through life lessons.

I AGREE

but you can never underestimate the power of having aabo at home and doin his job

Children need both a mother and father figure in their lives.

otherwise your father is 50 cent

Its better to have both parents.

In today's Somali society there are plenty of Baby daddies but not enough fathers. I still blame the mothers mostly.
