Two Chocolate Chips off the Old Block

Outside of Cain and Abel, it’s hard to picture two more competitive brothers than Al and Anthony Butterman.

Somewhere along the line, where the approach to raising children changed from how their folks did it to how they do it today, some modern parents struck upon the idea that nothing can be more important than their children having high self-esteem.

They were special, and it was important they and everyone else, even those who didn’t care a lick, knew that.
