The Bahamas, a nation celebrated for its beauty and culture, is grappling with a profound societal issue: the alarming absence of strong male figures in families and communities. This crisis, deeply rooted in the decline of traditional family structures, has far-reaching consequences for the nation’s social fabric. Statistics reveal that 65% of live births in The Bahamas are to single mothers, with fathers often absent or unacknowledged. This phenomenon has led to generations of young men who are disengaged, directionless, and, in many cases, a threat to society. Many end up as high school dropouts, incarcerated, or tragically lost to violence or justice evasion.
