Boys don’t need to be “scared straight”, they need to be healed
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I tell you the truth, when I compassionately tell them the real reason they’re wearing their hoodies inside is because of their emotional pain inside—they gradually sit up and cautiously remove their hoods.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So the next time you see a boy with a hood on inside, don’t berate him—engage him. Our boys don’t need to be “scared straight”, they need to be healed.
