We've been talking a lot over the last few weeks about gun violence in America:  the deaths of 20 children and six teachers and administrators in Newtown, Connecticut and the nearly 20, young, black, innocent bystanders killed by gun violence every 40 days.

The President has promised to introduce legislation this month to combat gun violence, but some of -- or even most of -- the problems start in our own homes.  It's how we raise our children, especially our boys. 

Roland Martin took this problem to Dr. Steve Perry, host of TV One's "Save My Son" and Dr. Chuck Williams, an adolescent psychotherapist at Drexel University in Pennsylvania.
