Saving our Black and Brown young men is not an option. We must, and they must be taught how to save themselves. Melodie Yarber-Rhodes, M.A. has created a tool to assist them and those who love them. Nations have been built with their backs and with their blood, sweat and tears. Now they are paying the price for this - with rage and in silence. Rhodes, with a Master of Arts in Counseling,15 years of educator and counseling experience, and a mother of two young men, wrote Coping Like A King from her desire to help you and your son(s). To help your growing son become a well-adjusted, resilient person. This is a tool to help address his social and emotional needs that oftentimes go unaddressed and ignored. "It is my prayer that Coping Like A King allows guidance and healing for your young man and that it opens new opportunities for him. I also want you to talk with him about the activities and exercises he finds the most beneficial for him. The sooner they begin working in this book, the more confident and resilient they will become. God Bless!"
