Why A Mentor??
One of the most challenging aspects of single-motherhood can be integrating the balance of a male perspective into the lives of their sons. This is typically provided by a father. As boys grow into men they eventually begin to imitate other males, whether they find their role models at home, on television, or in the streets. As a boy approaches puberty, he desperately needs the masculine influence and guidance of a good male role model. Lacking strong male role models, they embrace a delinquent identity to prove their masculinity in a lot of instances. This behavior is also poor training for parenthood, and we are now reaping the effects of generations of absent fathers. In today’s society, it’s not always easy for Mom to find a man who is willing and able to assume this all-important responsibility on her behalf. This is where I come in to assist. The more time boys spend with decent men, the more likely they are to imitate them. And when your son has questions more naturally asked of a male, you will have provided him with a good mentor to approach.
Statistics point to the importance of male role models and fathers, for the development of children emotionally and cognitively, especially boys. Even for father figures who may not be in the home, studies have shown that time spent with these men has a positive relationship with psychological well-being including less depression and anxiety. Data from a Johns Hopkins study suggest that the presence of a paternal figure in the household may actually have a positive effect on the emotional state of the prepubescent male, especially in relation to mood, peer conflict, personal adjustment, and ability to enjoy developmentally appropriate social and recreational activities. Additionally, emotional support from father figures is related to fewer delinquency problems and lower drug and marijuana use.
There are more than 15 million single moms in America currently raising more than 22 million youth? This means that about 86% of Single Parent families are led by Moms in the US and more than 22 million children across the country under the age of 18 are being raised without a dad at home.
Children growing up in single-parent homes are more likely to not finish school and generally obtain fewer years of schooling than those in two-parent homes. Specifically, boys growing up in homes with only their mothers are more likely to receive poorer grades and display behavioral problems.
One study shows 49% of the father-absent adolescents reported that they had repeated at least one grade, whereas only 24% of father present adolescents reported that they had repeated a grade in school.
The same study states 73% of the father-absent adolescents reported that their grades were worse that the other students in class, as opposed to 3.6% of father-present adolescents.
64% of Black Households in America have only one Parent 90% of those are single moms.
39% of African-American children did not live with their biological father and 28% of African-American children did not live with any father representative.
Although black males make up 6% of the population, they make up 50% of those who are incarcerated
Over 85% of youths in prison grew up in fatherless homes
