Guys, i was just playing with this "create a blog" thingy and i ended putting up yesterday's topic just to see what comes out.

you can just put your topics here and chat instead of putting them on the Gen blog, i can see we like like talking a lot and there are some Gen-lovers who don't like taking part in our conversations and we're disturbing them like a few have already voiced that out.........#just saying#

Its Father's Day on Sunday.

The general perception is that fatherhood is none existent in black communities however we all know there are some good men out there who play their father roles to the fullest. Lets celebrate them by sharing our happy memories of anyone who's played a fatherly role in your life.

My dad was an absent father he's alive and kicking but chose not to be a part of our lives for whatever reason not that I feel robbed by his actions because my mom was the greatest parent ever .......but my brother bless him he's been the best male role figure for my sisters and I.

I wish him a great Father's Day.

@Ayashah ... Look through Makisto's archive ... he wrote a wonderful tribute to his mother last year.

Perhaps you should read that instead of lamenting the absence of a father.

Most fathers in black communities run away from their responsibilities but our mothers are always there for us, they assume both roles and their children turn out alright!

Let's just celebrate them, after-all they had a hand in bringing us to the world and to those men who stood by our mother in their times of trials and tribulations, we should celebrate more!

I am going to say this about black fathers being absent .... think about it.

The black family has been systematically destroyed through most recordable history.
The emergent black, being a victim and product of this destructive process ... is not capable of building a family because one needs to come from a family in order to understand what is necessary to make one work and remain together

With technology, time, economic improvements, liberalization of ideas, etc., new pressures assault the black family.

We are responsible for ourselves.

If you never had a dad, there is very little you can do about that, but if you are not going to do that little bit more to ensure that you are a present dad for the child you have, or be have the dad present for the child ... you'd only be repeating the mistakes of history.

Lamenting an absent dad (negatively) is possibly one of the biggest causes that ensures that our children also lament our absence negatively... as we do with out "were not present fathers".

If the relationship cannot work out ... negotiate comfortable space for both parents to access the children ,,,

As I always say ... in break-ups and divorces ... the children always suffer and the lawyers always get paid ...

Break the patterns and rebuild society.

Couldn't have said it better myself VusiK .

I dont hate or resent my father the truth is I'm not sure if I even feel anything for him. He's just my father ends there nothing more nothing less.

What struck me most abt this topic was an article I read earlier about school kids usually having to make Mother's Day and Father's Day cards but sadly most Father's Day cards are also received by mothers as the fathers are absent and the kids wont have any stories to tell at school come Monday becos there were no Father's Day celebrations at home. Tht that was sad.

hey guys..

thats very true Vusi. hw do we break the pattern things get worse by the day, someone here once said men prefer to form stronger bonds outside of their households & relationships n i think this is the major problem. pple keep looking for the next better/entertainment/fun woman out there even after having kids instead of Really settling down. n also this whole culture/tradition men can have as many women as they want... contributes to no fathers in most households..

OK here is my short poem or whatever you call it for my late father “RIP Maduna, Nokhala, Gubevu, Tiba siyakulandela, Msuthu into eyawela iTugela ngentambe’sgcawu”

I might not been fortunate to spend ample of time with you
But im grateful to have someone like you
Who gave me love that no one can replace.
There is a reason why we call someone a father,
Thank you for being a noble man with a beautiful soul.

Please dont ask me why i want to turn back the clock and
Go back in time and live my life with him again.
He was/is my day, my night and everything.
I have those days where I think of him and
Those thoughts are only about him.

Sometimes i feel so empty that he is no longer with me
Because i believe things will be different if he was alive.
Sometimes i dream of him all night and i wake up with him on my mind.
Im grateful for the love he showed to me and my family.

He might die 16 years ago but his spirit lives with me.
He is the reason for my smile, my inspiration and daily sunshine.
I love him for who he was, my father, husband, son, brother ….
He is everything I’ll ever need or want and words cannot explain his love.
Thank you for the good memories i am going to share with your grandchildren.
I know how it feels to know that someone loves you.

I will always love you DAD.

Your only daughter,

Njoy

I think there's another important aspect of this piece that seems to be ignored: WOMEN WHO USE THEIR CHILDREN IN THEIR OWN BATTLES WITH THE FATHER. I hate those wars I just hate them because they affect the kids and deny them the opportunity of knowing their fathers.
