What is wrong with my password call here?

This looks correct to me; what is the syntax error?

accounts/models.py 
from django.contrib.auth.models import BaseUserManager

class UserManager(BaseUserManager):
    def create_user(self, email, dob, accepted_tos, password):
        if accepted_tos:
            raise ValueError("Users must have an accepted_tos")

        user = self.model(
            email=self.normalize_email(email),
            dob=dob,
            accepted_tos=accepted_tos
        )
        user.set_password(password)
        user.save()
        return user

you need to change accepted_tos=accepted_tos to accepted_tos=True that's what I can see that's wrong if another error pops up after you tried it let me know
