Solange Knowles Talks Feeling 'Blessed' to Have Her Son
Solange Knowles may be an entertainer and sister to the renowned singer Beyonce Knowles, but she insists that one of her biggest blessings is her son, Julez.
Knowles, 27, recently opened up about her 9-year-old son on celebrity blogger Necole Kane's website.
"I have a good kid and I'm really, really blessed in that aspect. He really doesn't give me too much issue," Knowles said. "He knows I don't play that! He's around a lot of parents that are extremely liberal and open. I'm certainly very liberal and open but at the end of the day, I'm still a black mama."

The mother of one described her methods of discipline.
"I'm still like, 'If you don't get yo little (expletive) in that room and stop talking crazy to me.' Occasionally, every blue moon that doesn't work," she revealed. "It doesn't get a reaction and he has that confidence where it wants to beat the system and measures have to be taken accordingly."
Knowles, Beyonce's younger sister, revealed that she is protective of her son who partially influenced her to delete her Instagram account.
"Apart of me kind of turns an eye to it and then apart of me really feels like the humanization of artists has really been stripped down," she told concreteloop.com. "I think one of the reasons I actually went off of Instagram because I was on there for a little while was because I would post pictures of my son or my friends and they would be criticizing. My whole thing is that I'm completely fully, capable of handling negativity for myself, but to put that kind of access to negativity behind people who didn't ask for that was really troubling to me."
Although fans may not be able to catch Julez on Solange's Instagram account, he has been featured on Beyonce's. Earlier this summer, Beyonce, 31, posted a picture with her nephew at the famed Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, Ga where civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. served as a co-pastor until he died.
