Is There Really Anything Wrong With What His Son Did?

The crazy thing is that the kid in the video isn’t conforming to societal pressures lol

You all want men and boys to act a certain way only because that’s what someone else told you to believe lol who wrote the ‘rules’ & why are you so quick to abandon yourself to follow them?

Women inherently know how to let people live and be who they are.

Insecure men on the other hand, don't. Strength is an attribute of masculinity and I'm willing to bet this young one has more strength then most of the folks in this thread combined.

Wade On His Parenting Skills

In a USA Today article in 2017, Wade described his parenting skills saying, “The one thing I tried to do when I got custody of my kids, out of everything, I tried to teach them about responsibility, respect, and routine. The three R’s in my household is very important. If they understand their responsibilities, respect people and have routine”.

Also, his foundation actually works, by providing resources, to combat statistics that show a majority of Black children are being raised in single-parent homes led by women. So overall, his priority is not on making sure the boys he’s raising are the embodiment of what folks claim masculinity to be, but rather, that he’s a constant presence for them so they can grow to be happy, healthy, good men.

This is something he told ABC News in 2011 should be the focus of all dads:

“We as men have to get back on the line and raise our families to make sure that this country will continue to strive by raising great kids,” he said.

“You can’t raise all your kids the same way,” he said, “They’re different.”
