Son Quotes
Fathers, sons, and the choices made for family.
This collection of son quotes includes a mother recalling her young son's Christmas request, a man's reflection on parents who came to America from Jamaica and worked the fields and farms, and an executive explaining a career move made to keep his son in the same school.
