Black parents are often lulled into the false sense of safety that a suburban bedroom community provides. We are taught that if we can provide our children with “more than we had” and send them to certain schools, they are protected from criminal elements.
But the recent viral story of the five Black boys who went missing from places like Whitby, Pickering, Brampton and found in remote northern towns caught up in the drug trade, is a chilling wake-up call that any child, particularly our sons could be lured into doing something they never imagined.
