Dear Son is a direct letter from a father to his future son about the choice that will define his life: the woman he marries. Not a girlfriend. Not a partner. A wife. The woman who will raise your children, guard your name, and help shape the legacy you leave behind.

It shows what to look for in a woman who will build with you, the red flags no man should ignore, and the mindset a man must carry to be respected and desired.

Bad parents are the best parents because they give you adversity. Children are kind of like magicians psychologically because when you're a child, you're weak and you have to deal with your own weakness and your own vulnerabilities. Children are very willful and strong in their own way, and so when they have parents who ignore them or who are abusive, they find a way to somehow compensate for that. The compensation often leads to children becoming great artists, great political figures, great actors.
