“Raising Black Boys to Men: A Mother’s Guide to Raising Thugless Sons” is a candid book of one mother’s journey: her successes, trials, and errors, in raising her three boys, in a society that glorifies thug-life. Author, Patricia Joseph, who successfully navigated the lives of her three sons, through the ever so present negative influences in society, felt compelled to write about her experience in raising thugless sons. Patricia credits much of her success to just “good, ole-fashion child rearing.” All readers will enjoy the heart-felt emotion of Patricia’s call-to-action: “Save Our Sons.”

It's often said that children learn by doing. But, in reality, children learn by watching and listening. That's why as parents, we have to be mindful of what we say and do around our children. If not, a child will display in public inappropriate behavior or language he or she has learned at home. But, we can't fault the child for this type of behavior. The responsibility falls on the parent.
