Parenting in the African Diaspora: Did Our Parents Get It Right?

Parenting in the African Diaspora: Did Our Parents Get It Right?

In this virtual panel discussion, we talked about a number of things we felt we didn’t have growing up such as the lack of open communication with our parents, assuming parental responsibilities as children, and the lack of affection. We discussed how these things have impacted us as adults and as parents and how we plan on being more intentional in our own parenting.
