Because I Worry

This morning, I was introduced to the world of Incels—men angry at women for their loneliness and rejection. As I watched and read, it hit me: these aren’t just strangers in another country. They could be boys in our homes. Sons raised by mothers like you and me. This isn’t about blame—it’s about responsibility. If we want to change the narrative, we have to raise boys who can handle rejection without rage. Who grow into men, not monsters. One child, one home, one conversation at a time.
