Column – When Fewer Wedding Bells are Ringing. . .

Today most young people will live with one or more romantic partners before marrying – if they do marry at all. This is the “new normal” – and it’s not a healthy one for our culture.

When Fewer Wedding Bells Are Ringing. . .

Thanks for stopping by!

Column – Casey’s Affair. . .

Hi friends – here’s this week’s column. My discussion with someone else’s “the other woman” is getting a lot of attention. In fact it made the cover of the Sun-Times this week.

Yes, Casey is very real. See what you think!

Column – Is Valentine’s Day Much Ado About Nothing Much?

Hi friends. Call me the “Grinch who stole February 14th.” But I admit that Valentine’s Day just seems so. . . shallow to me!

I hope you enjoy this column.

Is Valentine’s Day Much Ado about Nothing Much?

Okay, but I’ll say it anyway for those of you who disagree with me: Happy Valentine’s Day!

Column – This is Not Your Mother’s ‘Dirty Dancing’!

Hi friends – here’s this week’s column.

A little foreplay on the dance floor – for teens – anyone? Many high schools (including mine) continue to deal with this issue. See what you think!

FOX – Betsy on FOX today

Hi friends – I was on FOX today talking about the rise of “dirty dancing” in high schools around the country. I’ve written before about this issue in my own community.

My big takeaway? How did “romance” devolve into this? Here’s a clip. Enjoy!

Column – The Religion of Global Warming Alarmism

This column came about as a result of me looking for the current science grade of one of my children. What I found was some very interesting material on the teacher’s official school website.

(Sheesh, you’d think the schools would be on to me by now, wouldn’t you?)

Enjoy.

Column – It’s Personal, But It’s Often Not Complicated

Hi friends, this column is a little personal. I share some of my experience in post-divorce life with young kids. A recent conversation with a dear friend also experiencing the politically correct culture – and seeing the terrific movie “It’s Complicated” – inspired this one.

Column – The Pursuit of Happiness is Not Good Enough

Hi friends – here is this week’s column. I have often had, or tried to have, this conversation about happiness with my kids. I don’t know if they are “getting” it, but I hope something is sinking in!

Can the Pursuit of Happiness Cost us Real Joy?
