Dennis Rodman has always been known for his “emotional” visuals, as he described it in his NBA Hall of Fame acceptance speech below. Rodman talked openly about being abandoned by his father, the role of several men who mentored him (one who cried with him), and his painful regret over not being the kind of father he would like to be for his own children. It must have taken a great deal of courage for the former NBA star to say what he did on this public stage.
This stirring video should remind us that fatherlessness in our generation is tearing away at the fabric of our society. According to 72.2% of the U.S. population, fatherlessness is the most significant family or social problem facing America (National Center for Fathering). Read some of the issues related to fatherlessness below. Also get my Kindle book 13-Foot Coffins dealing with the giants of fatherlessness, abandonment, and abuse.
