Turning Point (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781543476613)

John M. Gilmore Sr. was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1975. He has always been a student of psychology and cognitive awareness. After years of studying, coaching various youth sports, and mentoring, he decided to put together a book that contained characters and both the lessons that resonated with him as a person, a father, and a developer and the lessons that captured the attention of his students, players, mentees, and kids. Coming from a background muddled and toiled with poverty, a lack of guidance, violence, and chaos, he wanted to write a book to help parents, teachers, administrators, other mentors, and at-risk young kids better understand the sensitivity of their individual circumstances as it relates to them learning and coexisting in lifes setting.
