BOOKING INQUIRYIt does NOT take a village to raise a child… it just takes good parenting
Contrary to popular opinion, it does NOT take a village to raise a child. Although well intended, this message to parents was for a different time in a different culture. Unfortunately, the truth is we really don’t know who we can trust in ‘the village’ anymore from the Whitehouse, the School House, and the Church House. Richard encourages parents that they are the most important people in the community and in the life of their children. He shares that the community does not build the family, but rather, it is the family that builds the community. Parents learn how community health and safety is a result of parents taking responsibility for raising their children to be respectful, contributing citizens of society.

The family structure experience and how it can affect children towards delinquent behavior has been studied for well over one hundred years. These studies also show that children brought up in single parent, and stepfamilies are more prone to delinquent behavior than children raised by their biological parents. However, these statistics can be overcome. Richard shares his personal story of being raised by a single mother in the barrio of North East Los Angeles, and his experience of being a stepparent for most of his adult life...overcoming the challenges of successfully blending families.
