Kids Making It

Quote

In 1996, I gave up my law practice and moved our family back to North Carolina, to be near and help take care of my mother, and to try, somehow, to start working with kids, teaching them woodworking full-time. I was on the ‘path to success’, as I had learned it.  In 1988 my son Ben was born, and it changed my life. All of a sudden, I knew just how wonderful kids were, and how we all have an opportunity to impact their lives in a positive way, and a responsibility to do that. I was 36 years old then, practicing law full time, making more money every year, and ironically was gradually becoming less happy doing that.
