Opened my eyes!

I teach in a Title 1 school, meaning a majority of our students fall into lower socio/economic levels, which typically includes a large percentage of minorities. I was raised during integration in south Louisiana by very wise parents who were also educators and who taught me to look "inside" of others and not to judge by the "outside". I've always considered myself very non-prejudiced, but this book helped me to see more than even the "insides" of my students can reveal to me. The "why's" behind certain behaviors make so much more sense to me and I am now better able to relate to my students, making me a more effective teacher and a better person overall. I highly recommend this book to anyone, but particularly teachers who want to "get it" - it'll change your vision for your students.

Must for Boys

If you have you boys you need this book. It should be a must read for every parent rasing young men. If you are father this is must. You would be surprised how great this info is and it brings it straight in your face of how your boys are not being what we use to be "boys" Help your boy be a boy to be a man. Great read
