Thank you SO much. What a wonderful sentiment. Not all black males are fatherless, although it seems too many are. This video is very refreshing and I would hope encouraging for black males (and some white ones) to be more responsible. Me? I was very fortunate to spend a terrific day with my children and their children.

Daddy, Don’t You Walk So Fast
After my dear dad passed, every time I went to Albertsons they were playing I “The living years” and I would just start crying in the aisle. I thought about asking them to . Please not play that tape for awhile.
Good on you for having a day with your kids and theirs!....
I thought the video was touching and brilliant, done in excellent taste with both the father and son singing to each other......
Perhaps I should heave said “absent” fathers rather than many blacks are fatherless. And yes all races...but with so much going on with the black race and their problems so seemingly endless...it just seems to me it all begins in the home with the fathers.
I listened to it about five times now!
