Dear Parents

Thank you for your interest and feedback to our Good Men project. Thank you for being part of the process and "carving" the list of words down to what you believe a Good Man is. The results are interesting and hopefully will encourage some thoughtful discussion.

The table below shows the Top Ten descriptors as chosen by you the parents. The table is divided into three categories and the words are those that are specific to the fathers and mothers category.
