A Replacement Son: The Story Of Being A Prisoner To Expectations and Circumstance (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780578366180)

Is an amazing TRUE STORY chronicling the unconventional life and upbringing of the author Justin White. Reading more like a true-crime novel, the reader is taken on a journey through his life. Never before has it been this easy, to see into the workings of a childhood lost. The story through its many chapters serves both as inspiration and a warning to the generation raised by their grandparents. The author's story begins with the earliest memories of an armed drug robbery and progresses through stabbings and some of the worst violence and abuse a young child can endure. Suddenly finding himself in the saving hands of grandparents who have recently just lost their own child, Justin finds himself trying to fill the void as the replacement to a son so tragically taken away years earlier. These expectations and circumstances mold and change him through the years as he proves that if grandparents were any good at raising kids, they would not be raising their grandkids.
