Dear Carolyn, What do you say (if anything) when your 20-year-old likes a cer tain rapper who advocates for the death and destruction of your/his race? Said 20-year-old does not agree with said rapper's comments but still follows him on social media and still likes his music. I know my son is no longer a child. I also know, “The ultimate tragedy is not the oppression and cruelty by the bad people but the silence over that by the good people.” I'm trying to respect boundaries. I'm also extremely disheartened. Thank you. —Do I Say Anything? I hate the circumstances that make it so relevant. I hate the messiness that makes it so hard to answer. Here's all I've got. It is a par ent's job to raise children to find their way to sound moral reason ing. It is not a parent's job to do the moral reasoning for their children. Think back to your beliefs at his age, and I think it'll be clear that beliefs always evolve and deepen with time. We get there when we get there, at our own pace, using or discarding new information and others' input as we see fit. Plus: A moral adult's own reck oning with artists of grim charac ter can be complicated. Are there painters whose personal lives you know to be problematic? Do you turn your eyes away from their works? Or do you look and admire because it was... enough years ago? So where does this land as far as advice ... good question. That also depends on your kid, and how responsive he is to a parental intrusion on his thoughts. Some young adults will gratefully engage, some will eye-roll — and some are still immature enough to double down just because you butted in. Overall, I advise playing the long game. Trust that your moral teachings have hit their mark and will be absorbed as he is receptive to them. If you can’t stop your mouth from moving, then I urge con versation over pronouncements. “How do you feel about X's music since [relevant events]? I always struggle myself with art vs. the artist.” Then listen, listen, listen because you've reared him already and because you may just learn something from him.
