    Interesting trailer; hard to tell where it is going exactly. I do know, if the ‘wisdom’ it teaches is the world’s/culture’s way vs God the Creator/designer/lover of His children’s way… It WILL fail. Much of the issue in our world today is lack of positive male role models in the home. Mom’s aren’t great dads; we weren’t designed to be!!

    Since the dawn of history and farther back, boys have been told, “be a man!” And through the ages boys have persevered into young men unto old men. Generation after generation as a whole have “turned out fine.” Our society over the last few decades in America on a mainstream level seeks to emasculate males as early as possible and empower the females…. the result is the issues we have with today’s youth. THAT and Kathy is “100%” right when she says, “Much of the issue in our world today is lack of positive male role models in the home.” There is nothing wrong with telling your sons or young males that look to you for guidance to “be a man”….so long as the one saying it KNOWS what it means, and can/will back that up w/ the guidance toward becoming one. I’d have to write a novella to put into words all that being “a man” is, but most importantly it’s taking care of yourself and all those for whom you should care, to especially include your children….a lot of “men” fail in doing so. Between societies efforts to emasculate young men, and the lack of a positive male role model in their lives many of today’s young men are either running around like feral dogs w/ rabies or pampered house cats…neither of which is good, and both are extremes of the same spectrum but sadly a lot of young men I encounter today embody that statement.

    aS A MOTHER OF 5 BOYS i FOUND THE VIDEO VERY TELLING. NOT MUCH HAS CHANGED SINCE MY OWN CHILDREN WERE GROWING UP. THE SAME PAIN AND SUFFERING IS AS HARD KNOW AS IT WAS THEN. wE HAD A LIST ON OUR FRIDGE WHEN THEY WERE ALL GROWING UP OF WORDS THAT WERE NEVER ALLOWED IN OUR HOME. WORDS THAT HURT AS MUCH AS ACTIONS. THEY STILL TALK ABOUT THE LIST AND IT HAD GUIDED THEMIN THEIR OWN LIVES AS HUSBANDS AND KNOW FATHERS. i URGED EVERYONE I KNOW TO TAKE ALOOK AAT THIS VIDEO.IT WAS EXCELLENT.

    I could not agree with Gunner more.
