Encouraging Success Turnbull covers practical skills like how to dress. I recognize children's need to be fashionably hip, but I want them to understand they can't go out and get jobs wearing those types of fashions.

Personal grooming is important.

They have had to provide family counseling, buy them groceries, new shoes, and winter coats. They think all black kids from Harlem are hoodlums. Apparently their hard work paid off.
