7 Tips On Raising Your Son To Be A Great Man
Stick to your guns
Nothing inspires young black men more than strong black women. That may seem like a tall order at times but a very simple way to show your boy how to be a man of integrity is to exhibit those qualities yourself. Manywomen have a hard time telling their babies something they don’t want to hear (like no) but that’s all part of being a man.
