Because tomorrow isn’t promised

A mother is dead and sections of the community are attempting to rally around the family to help raise the children. For days now people have been recalling that it takes a village to raise a child.

The present state of affairs has caused me to rip, from last Friday’s Agender, D Gisele Isaac’s musings, that “when donkey min done walk the earth he come back an say e nah level.”

I’m reminded that as much as we want to postulate about the family (the nuclear family to be exact) and as much as there are people who keep saying men are marginalised without asking how they have marginalised themselves, parenthood is more than often synonymous with motherhood. Participatory fatherhood is, too often, a pleasant surprise.
