As a father of two fine young men, and as a psychotherapist, I could not object more to this narrow minded, outdated way of thinking. Fathers need to tell their sons that it’s ok sometimes not to be ok, that there are men out there who care, who are wonderful, loving, vulnerable fathers, mentors, listeners. Sons, go and find these fathers wherever they are, seek them out and let them know your heart. Good luck out there.
@Lesufi Congratulations on your appointment. I have a quick question: was your proposal to the DA that the 7 seats the ANC now occupy be split 4-3 with the DA, or would it have been ANC 7, DA 3 and the Others 0?
@AthiNkala99@KerryMaree4@GarethCliff The visuals that came out of Italy and, later, NYC were pretty hectic, no? We (you and @GarethCliff apparently) treat Fauci, and other leaders from that terrifying time as imperfect parental figures that withheld stuff from us for their own nefarious gains. #timetogrowup
@AthiNkala99@KerryMaree4@GarethCliff Yes, there was lots of information and yes, it wasn’t all coherent. But if you were in charge of trying to make sure that older and other vulnerable groups were safe, wouldn’t you take the safest route until you were more certain?
@KerryMaree4@GarethCliff Yes, but science changes as we continue research and new information comes to light. They were working with what they knew at the time. If we waited for the science many more vulnerable people may have died.
