Many young girls are growing up without a mother, but the sister of an NBA superstar is looking to change that. CBSVillage
last weekend, many young girls are growing up without a mother. Tragil-Wade Johnson, the older sister of former NBA superstar Dwyane Wade, is working to help those girls through the mentoring group, America's Big Sisters.
"When you don't have that one person that birthed you, it's a different type of loneliness," she said. "I'm the oldest out of all of us," Norfleet said."And I'm always felt like I'm alone, like I always have to take care of them by myself and stuff."Wade-Johnson also mentors Jaliyah Henderson-Elliot, who said having a"big sister" showed her that"even without my mother, I can be successful."
