“Being a father is the hardest job on the planet, because we don't have parental instincts like women have. You have to learn how to be a father before you even become a father, from a very young age. It's necessary to override what we're told in society a father should be, like if your son falls and scrapes his knee, you got to be tough. Baseball and all that are cool, but it's the tenderness and interactions that are really important. Boys are different; we have to impart that sensibility and that tenderness to them.” IfsShouldImportantDifferentAgeJobsYoungFallFatherBoysPlanetsSonToughBaseballInstinctHardestKneesInteractionTendernessSensibilityYoung AgeImpartParentalYour SonBeing A FatherHardest Job Author:Malik Yusef
“Administrators tend to lump Asians in Chicago into one group, not understanding that these kids would be fighting each other, the Cambodians and the Vietnamese. We started a thing called cultural gift sharing, where everyone comes and says what his culture is, so the teachers and the administrators could understand they are different.” DifferentWould BeKidsCultureFightingUnderstandingTeacherGroupsChicagoLumpsVietnameseAdministratorsFighting Each Other Author:Malik Yusef
