NOTABLE QUOTES:

"Not all men are abusers."

"Anything we can do, men, to get better in our parenting skills … let's do that."

"When we can get our men to care about the experiences of other people, to try to put themselves in the place of other people … the likelihood of them getting involved and wanting to help goes up dramatically."

"Guys, we have to be better. We can be better. We must be better, not just for us but for our families, for the people we care about, for future generations."
