He hopes that his gesture will become a family tradition and urges other parents to do the same.
In his own words, he adds: "Let's put our children in a position to be free to live how they choose while they're young and full of life. Free them as best we can to live out their dreams and desires. Free them to determine for themselves the relationships they may choose to have with Banks and employers. Free them so they can be what they are inclined to be."
