Adulthood. Most of us get there eventually, but rarely without a measure of painful regrets. Some of the most critical decisions of our lives are made when we're too inexperienced to understand the far-reaching impact of our actions. MESSAGES TO MY SON is an enlightening compilation of lessons learned along the path from childhood to seasoned senior, addressing a host of topics including casual sex, parenting, career choices, spirituality and much more. It provides a holistic look at life and offers young readers the tools needed to maintain their bearings and make the right decision when it matters most--the first time. This slim volume contains many of the points parents feel are important to pass on to their adult children as they move out into the world, and it offers them up along with explanations of how and why these unspoken rules benefit the reader and the world around him. It is an inspiring book, one that could well grow to be the emerging generation's shortcut to wisdom.
