Lowey Alexander announces the release of his powerful memoir, Parenting Should Have Not Occurred, a deeply personal account of childhood trauma, resilience, and the conscious choice to build a better future.

At just seven years old, Alexander was asked to make a decision no child should ever face: whether his mother should remain with his father or leave him. That moment shattered his sense of safety and marked the beginning of a childhood shaped by domestic violence, neglect, illness, and emotional abandonment. Growing up in Oakland, he learned how to survive by becoming quiet, useful, and invisible.

Behind closed doors were asthma attacks, hospital visits, harsh discipline, and hunger masked as celebration. He endured cruelty hidden behind charm and carried the painful label of coward for choosing survival over violence. Through Catholic schooling, racial identity struggles, and early spiritual searching, he wrestled with confusion, shame, and a desperate need for belonging.

Yet this memoir is not written in blame or revenge. It is written in truth.

Alexander revisits the defining moments of his childhood with honesty and reflection, examining the lasting impact of irresponsible parenting and the heavy burden of forced maturity. The book was born from a desire to clear his soul after the passing of his mother last February. Writing became a way to cleanse his heart of unresolved pain and release lingering resentment toward both parents.

Despite his difficult upbringing, Alexander built a remarkable adult life. He spent 50 years in the Information Technology field, rising from engineer to major decision maker. He was also a dedicated youth sports coach and public speaker in the tech industry. Most importantly, he is proud of how he raised his three children. After obtaining custody of two sets of children from two different mothers, he committed to providing the stability, love, and security he never had.

The central message of Parenting Should Have Not Occurred is one of empowerment. Childhood neglect and trauma do not have to define a person’s future. Through self-determination, courage, and accountability, it is possible to transform pain into purpose and build a life of joy and stability.

This memoir is a testament to resilience and the power of choosing a different path.

He calls his journey “generation zero where the abuse started and ended’ and proud of the life he created for his family.
