Publisher's summary

You hold your son in your arms for the first time. As you look at his perfect hands and fingers, he grabs onto your thumb. You smile as tears start streaming down your face. You can’t believe this moment has come; the moment you can finally hold your son in your arms. “I will never let you go”, you start to tell your son, “I promise, I will always be there for you. I promise to do whatever I can to help you succeed”.

In those moments you don’t think about all the obstacles that are in your path. You simply think about the love you have for your son. This is a great way to start your journey as a father - full of love. After all, it is one of the most important factors when it comes to raising your child.

But, the truth is, you don’t just want to raise a child. You want to raise your son into a man. You don’t want him to become like so many people in today’s generation - a boy who is living as an adult. You want him to be a man, someone who will take care of his family, work hard, keep God close, and respect everyone. You want him to be a leader in his community and be an honest person.

This book will help you accomplish these goals. The purpose of this book is to give you the knowledge you need in order to raise a man into manhood and not a boy into adulthood.

This book covers:

  • How history can affect African American boys
  • How you can raise your boys into men
  • Social skills
  • The importance of education
  • How you are your son’s most important role model
  • How you need to set examples for your son
  • The value of marriage and family
  • The value of respect
  • The value of following God’s word
  • The importance of your son going through a rite of passage
  • How to enroll your son in a manhood boot camp
  • How your son will find other role models, so you need to make sure they are proper role models
  • How you need to find a good balance of compassion and discipline when raising your son
  • How you need to treat your son with respect, so he learns to treat other people with respect

This book is guaranteed to help you through your path of fatherhood. It is guaranteed to help you raise your boy into a man. You can then pass on this book to help your son learn more about fatherhood and raise his own men.

It is time to start changing the way the world is for African American boys now - it all starts with you. Don’t wait another day. All you need to do is add this book to your cart and you will get your son started on his journey into manhood.
