Move towards positive masculinity

IN the past month, with the shocking reports of violence in our schools, many of us have been experiencing various levels of trauma.

My heartfelt condolences go to not just the victims of violence and their families but also to the families of perpetrators. I cannot imagine the grief that parents go through when their children die. But there must surely also be immense grief when their own children commit these heinous crimes. What a shock it must be to find that your child, still unable to drive or vote, is capable of rape and murder.
