Sam Hunt Takes on Domestic Violence in his video for his song, “Take your time”. He portrays a young man who witnesses domestic violence in a family and intervenes to assist the young woman and her baby in their escape. I see my son in Sam….I see his loving and protective nature. I know my son would never stand by and let something like this happen. I have told him all his life, not to listen to society.
I have told him to protect the women in his life, his sister, his Mother, his own future daughter. I tell him to protect anyone who he sees that needs it.
That is what a man is. That I managed to raise him to be the man he is, without the benefit of a Father or any other positive male roll model, makes me happy.
I know a lot of single Mothers worry about raising boys without a male in their lives. My son is proof that it can be done.
