Tony Tolbert, Los Angeles Lawyer, Gives His House To Homeless Family For a Year (VIDEO)

(CBS News) For most parents, when a child leaves the nest it's usually for good. But at age 51, Tony Tolbert has come home again. And it's for all the right reasons -- or so says his mom.

"He is so giving, and he's always been that way," said Marie Tolbert.

Tony grew up in a home that always seemed to have a spare bed -- thanks to his father - Jimmy Tolbert.

An entertainment lawyer in Los Angeles, Tolbert's dad extended a hand to almost anyone down on their luck. In fact, Tolbert can't remember a time there wasn't someone extra living in their house -- and that gave the Harvard-educated attorney an idea.
