Black mothers >

This is gentle parenting, teaching them emotional intelligence. So when they become adults they will be well rounded. Understand their feelings , can articulate them , and regulate them .

I'm so tired of seeing things from my mother's point of view when she never attempts to understand mine.

“The Black Love Imprint” 🤎

In the realm of love, a radiant hue,

Black hearts entwined, a bond so true.

A symphony of souls, harmonies rise,

Embracing the strength that love implies.

Within the nucleus, a sacred space,

The black family unit finds its grace.

Roots deeply planted, branches spread wide,

Nurturing love, where faith does reside.

Through trials endured, they stand as one,

Facing the storms until they are done.

Resilient spirits, unyielding and strong,

In unity they triumph, against all wrong.

Generations intertwined, wisdom shared,

Ancestors' stories, deeply cared.

Passing down the flame, a torch so bright,

Igniting the path with love's pure light.

Black love, a beacon in the night,

Guiding hearts, dispelling plight.

Through laughter and tears, they find their way,

Together they thrive, come what may.

In each tender touch, a healing balm,

Affirming the worth, a soothing psalm.

Celebrating beauty, melanin's embrace,

Love's tapestry woven with elegance and grace.

For in the medleys of life we find,

Black love's essence, power defined.

A testament to love's enduring art,

The black family unit, is a masterpiece from the heart.

A lot of people may not like this one but I think as black women we have a responsibility to our daughters to let them express themselves the way they want to express themselves, especially as a community of women whose femininity has been demonized or otherwise stolen from them for no reason other than because it can be. There’s a lot of discourse about what’s too grown for our daughters or what they are and aren’t allowed to do or express themselves as because we want to protect them from the world or because we don’t want them to be seen a particular way. A lot of this stems from us not being able to protect ourselves and protect our girls from abusers, from pedophiles, from passerby’s whom only desired to consume our daughters, dishonor them, or take from them. But, there comes a time as a community where we have to heal from our trauma, heal from the internalized sexualization of our children and daughters. When we talk about self victimization in the black community, let us not make the mistake of thinking that we have no right to feel upset or be traumatized after what we’ve experienced or the generational trauma we’ve endured and passed down to one another, but let it be a conversation about in which ways we continue to oppress ourselves or hurt one another because of things we’ve learned and are having a hard time letting go of so that we can flourish. This is common in all ethnic households, not just black ones, but because I’m a black woman, I’ll speak from a black experience. Outside of people of color, there is not a reality of a young girls femininity, beauty, or expression being policed so aggressively or limited so easily.

While raising her children in Harlem, Hale developed a deep sympathy for abandoned and neglected children. In the 1940s, she began providing short-term and long-term care for community children in her home. She also found permanent homes for homeless children and taught parents essential parenting skills. In 1960, she became a licensed foster parent, providing care for hundreds of children in her home. Hale's success as a foster parent earned her the affectionate nickname of "Mother Hale."

In 1969, at the age of 64, Hale became the foster parent of an infant addicted to cocaine. She responded to needs of other children with this affliction by founding a groundbreaking foster care program in Harlem, Hale House. The respite care program also provided training to drug-addicted mothers on how to improve the health of their chemically dependent babies. Hale's unique program required mothers to live in Hale House with their children and attend a drug rehabilitation program. In the 1980s, Hale expanded Hale House services to include care for infants stricken with HIV and those who had lost parents to AIDS.

By 1991, Hale House cared for approximately 1,000 infants and toddlers. During her distinguished career, Hale received numerous honors and awards for her community service. She received an honorary doctorate from John Jay College of Criminal Justice and public service awards from the National Mother's Day Committee and the Truman Award for Public Service. In 1985, during his State of the Union Address, President Ronald Reagan referred to Hale as an "American hero" for her commitment to at-risk children.

Clara McBride Hale died on December 18, 1992 in New York City at the age of 87.

Mientras criaba a sus hijos en Harlem, Hale desarrolló una profunda simpatía por los niños abandonados y descuidados. En la década de 1940, comenzó a brindar cuidados a corto y largo plazo a los niños de la comunidad. También encontró hogares permanentes para niños sin hogar y enseñó a los padres habilidades esenciales para la crianza de los hijos. En 1960, se convirtió en madre adoptiva autorizada y cuidó a cientos de niños en su hogar. El éxito de Hale como madre adoptiva hizo que se ganara el cariñoso apodo de "Madre Hale".

En 1969, a la edad de 64 años, Hale se convirtió en madre adoptiva de un niño adicto a la cocaína. Ella respondió a las necesidades de otros niños con este padecimiento y fundó un innovador programa de cuidados y crianza en Harlem, llamado Hale House. El programa de cuidados también proporcionó capacitación a madres drogadictas sobre cómo mejorar la salud de sus bebés químicamente dependientes. El programa único de Hale requería que las madres vivieran en Hale House con sus hijos y asistieran a un programa de rehabilitación de drogas. En la década de 1980, Hale amplió los servicios de Hale House para incluir la atención a bebés afectados por el VIH y a aquellos que habían perdido a sus padres a causa del SIDA.

En 1991, Hale House atendía a aproximadamente 1,000 bebés y niños pequeños. Durante su distinguida carrera, Hale recibió numerosos honores y premios por su servicio comunitario. Recibió un doctorado honorario por parte de John Jay College of Criminal Justice y premios de servicio público del Comité Nacional del Día de la Madre y el Premio Truman al Servicio Público. En 1985, durante su discurso sobre el estado de la Unión, el presidente Ronald Reagan se refirió a Hale como una "héroe estadounidense" por su compromiso con los niños en situación de riesgo.

Clara McBride Hale murió el 18 de diciembre de 1992 en la ciudad de Nueva York, a la edad de 87 años.
