Hi there, I’m new here and this is officially my first ever post on S. Spot. I wanted to discuss whether others agree that there is an issue with Somali boys in particular struggling in education.
I have two younger brothers, both have dropped out of college. One of them regularly gets into trouble with the law and the other spends 90% of his day sleeping and playing video games. I have tried advising them many times but they get snappy with me.
Part of me wants to blame my parents for not being proactive earlier in their upbringing – but how do you start that conversation with your parents…?
I suspect this is quite common in our community, please share your thought! Thanks.
