Hi friends – I hope you’ll tune into “It Takes a Parent,” AM1160/WYLL at noon on Sunday, or later stop by for a podcast here or on National Review.com. This week’s guest is writer Megan Basham, author of “Getting the Life you Want by Helping Your Husband Get Ahead” (Forum Crown, 2008). She has some really provocative things to say, and I’m certainly not afraid to challenge her a bit, too! I think we are both pretty good at taking apart the feminists, and how they they have made things harder, not easier for women – particularly when it comes to marriage!

Meanwhile, I wanted to let you all know that I’ll be taking a break from the “It takes a Parent” show for the summer! My last show until fall will be next week, May 28th. I hope you tune in. And, I hope you get a chance to enjoy the archives over the summer months.

Thanks for stopping by! – Betsy

Hi friends – I hope you tune in to “It Takes a Parent” this week when I talk about America’s spirituality. There have been lots of negative news reports about Americans and their drop in religious affiliation. But the news is better than that. I touched on it in this week’s column, and will talk more about it on the show.

I’ll also look at whether it’s true then when it comes to men and religion, “they’re just not that into Him” as Gail Falsani of the Sun-Times put it. The science is that men are not has “hard-wired” for religion as women are. Among other things, I’ll make the case that this is a practical argument for why women shouldn’t occupy positions of authority in the church.

And there are some other fun segments in the “Hart Beat” part of the show too.

I hope you’ll tune in today at noon central, AM1160/WYLL Chicago, streaming at www.wyll.com, or podcast tomorrow here or on Friday at NationalReview.com

Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have a blessed week.

Hi friends – here’s this week’s column. By the way, if you are wondering why my friend “Gail” is so wary of sleepovers, it’s because Gail and I, who were classmates in high school, saw this stuff first hand, shall we say. Enjoy.
