FATHER FAILURE or wadup pops
It's all around me
I'm in it up to my eyeballs
I see 'good men' at church
Successful fathers so I know
It's possible.
Father failure means
Family failure too
A domino effect
But how to fix it?
The courts?
The church?
You fix yours
I'll fix mine !!!!
A team works better.
Where to start
When to start
My son
Stephen is in the "service"
Finding his way ?
I have a grandson in the house . . .
sometimes. 5 months old !
3 unmarried daughters
All over 20 yo . . . with boyfriends !
I go to church, the men are mostly good, trying to do right.
It's a good "showcase"
It's the right place to start
Forget about the hypocrisy
We all have it
The community seems like a mess
Bad news father failure everywhere
Can the government help?
I go to a regional advisory council
meeting every first Thursday
We are supposed to come up with
recommendations for the department of children and families (DCF) as to how they can do a better job. Are there hypocrites who attend? Yes at least one, me.
So what's with the "hypocrisy" stuff all of a sudden? FATHER FAILURE !
How am I gonna help no one
being so big of a failure myself ?
Yes but . . .
I can try, so I go to the FELT meeting once per month too. FATHERHOOD ENGAGEMENT LEADERSHIP TEAM
I met Mr. Kevin. I went to one of his Fatherhood Initiative /mentoring/ support group kinda meetings last Wednesday.
VISION - I saw men
Broken men, badly broken
They told their stories . . .
Make u cry -
PASSION
THEN I begin
to c the
MISSION !!!

This course is a general introduction to adults with
disabilities and the issues faced by them in American society. The emphasis is
on issues relating to full inclusion in neighborhoods, community associations,
the workplace, and leisure and recreation experience. The Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA) and its powerful implications for full community
inclusion by men and women with disabilities will be examined and understood.
The
objectives of this course are as follows:
11) Through discussion and writings, demonstrate an understanding of men
and women with disabilities as people with abilities, capacities, and gifts
more than people with limitations.
22) Students will examine personal and societal prejudices toward men and
women with disabilities and how disability activists are addressing this issue.
33) Students will discuss issues and opportunities around housing, work,
leisure and recreation, and general community access for men and women with
disabilities.
44) Students will understand the major implications and impact of the ADA.
