When my son Andrew was 10 years old, just about four months before Y2K, my wife (Elaine) and I got a phone call from his school’s principal.
Thanks for writing this. As the dad of a single female, I'm sure our fathering was a bit different. I hope your health is getting near 100%? Merry Christmas, Bro!
Jim,
Your essay on boys is profound.
I will be reading and absorbing it many times.
I admire your powerful leadership as a father
in showing your son
that we never accept an order
to lie down in the fetal position!
Even if it comes from someone in power.
We defend ourselves from attack!
We refuse to pay any penalty for doing so!
We reward the heroic act!
WOW what a great lived parable
for raising brave men.
