…children with special needs. Together Pooch and Linda formed an organization called Djanai’s Angels, which seeks to build self-esteem among special needs kids and spread awareness about Palsy to parents.

“I became a daddy to my younger brother – first,”admits Hall. “When my parents were divorced, we lived with my dad. And as an older brother, I had to help around the house. I sorta assume the role while my dad was at work. I had to hold it down. To be honest, that was probably like my first taste of fatherhood.

When asked about the role any father should play, Hall simply said,

“I think a father is very imortant in the sense that he offers a male perspective and a male structure to the family household. I think it’s important for a man to be in a child’s life because he can touch on some things that moms may not be familiar. That’s why you have a mom and a dad. I wish it was like that for a lot of families. Shout out to single moms.”
