"Attention!"
The Million Father’s March is asking all fathers to take their sons to school on the first day of school. I-Witness thinks it is a wonderful idea.
Many fathers across the nation will take off work for a few hours to put their sons in new directions, Moms it is a good idea for the men to go to school with their daughters on the first day also.
It brings them to a completely new level of looking at education. Keep building strong families and advancing that next generation, I love it! Salute to you Million Father’s March organizers.
