When Does a Boy become a Man? #shorts

When David Arms was young his father's absence and lack of involvement leaves him unsure of his manhood. As a father he decided to do something different with his sons. A new tradition is born, and lives are changed. We take a look into what we have lost from times gone by and what we might should reinstate from the eyes of a Father and Son.

"It's every father's responsibility to tell his son at the appropriate age: 'Son, I just want you to know I no longer consider you to be a boy, but in my eyes, I see you as a man now. And that if every father in this country did that for their sons, then this country and this world would be a much better place because boys would not need to prove their manhood to anybody else.'" – Steven Arms

When does a boy become a man? Have we lost an all important element in social structure? Is this why so many young men refuse to step into being Men?
