Sydel’s excitement is beyond justified. Learning about Sonya and Lucille’s experiences raising two of the greatest players in basketball history is a fascinating prospect for just about anybody in the basketball community. However, their show isn’t only about their journey as mothers.
Sonya Curry and Lucille O’Neal’s new show has an interestingly unique concept
In ‘Raising Fame,’ Sonya and Lucille will attempt to do something different. During their appearance on the Today Show, Lucille explained the motive behind their latest venture, saying,
“I want people that watch the show to realize that parenting, first of all, doesn’t come with any instructions. But we take it very seriously because we’ve learned and we believe that when you see the gift in your child, it’s our time and we should nurture the gift that we see.
Lucille then explained that parents need to realize how important it is to be present in their children’s lives, and how much it can benefit everyone if they just take an active role.
So I want all the parents to know they need to be present… They need to be active in their lives, they need to be present in what they’re doing and they just need to learn how to listen.”
As Lucille explained, ‘Raising Fame’ is a guide for parents to learn from the experiences of people who’ve raised stars. The show will give them an insight into the challenges of nurturing their children’s gifts and teach them how to deal with the roadblocks they could face.
Lucille and Sonya faced their fair share of challenges when raising their superstar sons. This is something they have looked to expound on as well during the show, using it to give context and perspective to viewers from all walks of life.
Given just how much they are looking to do with the show, it will undoubtedly be on countless fans’ watchlists as soon as it premiers.
