And here’s this week’s column on the dangers of. . . the hula hoop? Yep!
Meanwhile, I hope you tune in to my radio show, “It Takes a Parent,” this Sunday at noon central time, AM1160/WYLL Chicago, streaming live on WYLL.com, or later here on my website or, on Fridays, that week’s show is podcast and archived on www.nationalreview.com. I’ll be talking with Dr. David Elkind, author of the block buster best-seller “The Hurried Child,” on what happens when we push our kids to grow up too fast? Twenty-five years after the release of the book, the trend may be worse than ever. How can we give childhood back to our kids? I also talk to Dr. Bennett Leventhal from the University of Illinois Chicago. A renowned juvenile psychiatrist, he sheds light on the news this week that pediatric suicides are on the rise after years of having leveled off. I hope you tune in for some really valuable information.
Later, I’ll be posting some political columns I’ve done for the “Chicago Daily Observer” this week on the Sarah Palin choice - and why she makes so many people so hysterically nervous!
I hope you have a great weekend. Thanks for stopping by, and please remember that I read all the e-mails I receive, even when I can’t answer each one.
And thank you!
Betsy
