Interesting I can see this actually. I know in school everyone knew me but I distance myself and maintained more of a nerd personality. It wasn't until I was long out of school that I discovered ...
I know the statistics are higher but it seems like nothing really changes over the years. I graduated in 1988 and I knew so many kids that used drugs or drank. The one major change from then unti...

I never have understood the junk food in schools. It's nothing more than a conflicting message to our kids. I understand that schools need the money and use the money for good things but seriousl...

I wonder if they took into account "gifted children" in the study. Gifted children often become bored easily and may not pay any attention to what is going on. It has nothing to do with lack of f...
The study actually doesn't surprise me at all. As a social worker and seeing the things I have seen I always knew the figures had to be low. The one thing that did surprise me some was the male f...

This makes me sick. I absolutely would have done the same thing. I don't think I would have called to save his life though. I would have called 9-11 to come pick up the trash.

This is just crazy! Why are parents so dumb? I hope they are locked up forever. They look like a couple of meth heads.

Great points, Armin. I loved your book, and enjoy visiting your site.

Interesting article Armin. Although since mine has not yet hit the teen-age years, I'd still have to go with "deeply satisfying" (great description) AND "happy". Good post.
