Hey Vitendo4africa, great content you got there. I think all this channel needs is a little push to get things moving. I can help with that. My info is on this very channel I'm using to comment.

Yes, it is a challenge to raise children in the Diaspora. Our kids don`t belong anywhere which causes identity crises and a disconnection to our culture. However, being friends with them is not the optimal solution. The Western World demands total emersion which includes embracing their culture and behaviour in order to get a comfortable place in the region. If we keep on insisting that our kids isolate from that then we are doomed for failure. We need a balance where children are exposed to our values but also accepting the new culture we INTRODUCED to them. Therefore we simply need to find a way to be PARENTS and not FRIENDS, probably through parental classes or cultural orientation. We could also take the kids for visits back home as much as we can, but we have to protect them from all the abuse they face when they are in the motherland for not in the "normal" African way. Otherwise they will hate the visits and when they become adults hate their ancestry places.

Could we get the powerpoint presentation available for download

Thanks Jeff for this information

Great information. Learnt a lot.

This is a great topic, many of our African families are not aware of this disorder. Some believe it's evil or spiritual.

Grow up and stop using racism as your crutch, everyone is discriminated against.

Your babygirl is beautiful and such a great blessing

Powerful

'Promo sm' 🤦

Fresh kids are not the American way. Our government doesn't punish these "kids" and parents are forbidden to punish our children without worrying that as parents - we will go to jail. Keep correcting your children!

Great conversations. Thank you all!

I wanted to share an interview I did with Calvin University alumni, speaker and author Rebecca Deng about her book "What They Meant For Evil". Rebecca came as a refugee from what is now South Sudan via the Kakuma Refugee Camp in Kenya. This interview and her book deal with themes such as healing and trauma. th-cam.com/video/xzWQ7jdYAOQ/w-d-xo.html
