TEENAGERS IN SEARCH OF IDENTITY: ARE SAGGIN' PANTS REALLY THE PROBLEM?
-- Educator’s new book tells teens to break free and navigate the fears, pressures and conflicts of their lives. --
Bookcover and author Sabrina Hayes
(BlackNews.com) -- In her latest book, Pull Up Your Pants for Personal and Social Change (Infinity Publishing 2010, ISBN-10: 0741457075 $15.95), Sabrina Hayes, an author, trainer, and mother of three, shares her inspiration, traditional childhood rearing philosophy and avid purpose to mentor and develop young people. Hayes is passionate and unequivocally determined to take young people "back to the basics" - observing and honoring sensible, respectful, and obedient behavior.
This book is an insightful, self-improvement guide offering practical solutions, valuable leadership and phenomenal transformation. The book reveals the consensus of teenagers and young adults surveyed, that: "saggin' pants or any other bizarre display of expression is our constitutional right and, is merely a form of personal identity, self expression, total independence... exempt from societal endorsement". To counter such attitudes, this book teaches the fundamental principles of individuality, leadership and character, encouraging young men to embrace the "men of honor" concept and, young women to understand the true meaning of self worth and self value in society as a "virtuous woman".
Hayes, who is also the president of Utter Nonsense Training Group, LLC, has unprecedented vision, in her pursuit to:
* Deliver young people from shallow perception, rebellion and ignorance
* Teach helpful ways to avoid and eliminate bullying, risque' dress attire, harmful influences and violence
* Demonstrate the importance of first impressions (e.g. positive image, communication, confidence)
* Educate, empower and encourage young people to make a radical, positive lifestyle change
Willie Jolley, a bestselling author and world class motivational speaker, says, "This is an incredible book! Every parent needs to get this book for their children. We need every community center; we need every school; we need every juvenile justice organization to get this book and to share the principles and strategies in the book to help young people understand... that they can pull up their pants; they can pull up their thinking; and, they can pull up their consciousness and that their best days are in front of them if they start to change their thinking."

It ain't their pants that are sagging but their minds, thus their dress only reflects a sagging, reactionary state of mind. It reflects a lack of manhood training, for what father would allow his son to go around showing his behind? And the simple fact is that 99% of the brothers and sisters when shown the title of my book "Pull Yo Pants Up fada Black Prez and Yoself" immediately pull up their pants without me saying a word. Thus the crisis is due to parental default, neglect and abandonment.
Again, manhood training is the solution, therefore adult males must step to the front of the line and address our young men, not cower in the corner in fear. When the police stop them, his first step is to bitch slap them and they break down like the little babies they are.
Sagging may indeed be an act of rebellion but one cannot rebel to the extent that he endangers his life on the battle field. A sagging Negro cannot escape the police nor another hostile brother. His condition allows him to be the subject of the coast to coast phenomenon of male rape. Why wouldn't brothers on the down low want his ass, he's advertising it!
