Let's look at things a little differently. . .

This is very provocative piece, and the subject of my column this week. One mom let here 9-year-old child ride the New York City subway, and the world chimed in with outrage. What do you think?
The Danger of Over-protecting our Kids

For all you moms and dads getting ready to send off your well brought up children to college next fall - watch out. Professor Donna Freitas writes in her new book, “Sex and the Soul,” that you may have missed the part of the campus tour which dealt with the rampant sex culture at college, including theme parties like “CEOs and Prostitutes.” She wrote about her extensive research and findings in yesterday’s WSJ, and every parent should see this!
Donna will be my guest on the radio show tomorrow, so be sure to tune in.
As always, thanks for stopping by!

Hi Friends - here’s a really interesting article I cam across as I was getting ready for last week’s radio show with Mona Charen - this article will be the basis for my column this week - pretty disturbing stuff.
Here’s a quick summary of the report - you have to scroll down about half way to get to the “Character Counts - Report Card on the Ethics of America’s Kids” from the 4-H “Tip Sheet.”
Report on the Ethics of America’s Youth
You need to take a look! Pretty eye opening.
Thanks for stopping by!

Hi friends - here’s a really interesting piece from the NYTs this week on college kids and the campus sex culture - and some young people who are standing up to it. I thought the Times tried to make some of them look silly, but overall I thought the piece was very interesting and even a little encouraging. (We’ll be talking about it in a radio show soon)
Have a great day -

Hi Friends - I’ll be on Hannity and Colmes tonight talking about the “sexcapades” of so many political figures. What’s going on with the “double life” phenomena?
I hope you tune in to the FOX News Channel at 9:40 central time when we discuss it!
Cheers - Betsy

Hi friends - here’s this week’s column about giving up my “CrackBerry” (actually, my Treo.)
The backstory is that while I was writing it, my laptop crashed! I couldn’t communicate at all via e-mail for a little while and so for a second, well, maybe a few minutes, boy did I want my “CrackBerry” back!
Enjoy.

Hi Friends - here’s this week’s column. Guess which is one of our most at-risk groups of youth? It’s the most privileged. I blogged before about a great book “The Price of Privilege” - here’s the column I wrote on lessons from the book which can apply to all our kids.
Happy Parenting!

Hi friends - Here’s this week’s column. So many of my friends and even family members are going through the college “rat race.” Just watching it is enough to make a person nuts!
I’m not at all sure it has to be that way. Maybe my brother was onto something when he went through this process decades ago. Talk about a laissez-faire attitude.
Enjoy.
