Parenting In the Real World: What Do You Think?
Blog (Free subscription) | 11/20/2009
I posted the following status on Facebook: Free to good home: One 18 year old male. Hard worker, pleasant and civil to everyone but his parents. We pay for shipping. The parents who responded were encouraging. One of my child’s friends politely took offence at my status thinking I was trying to publicly shame my child. What do you think?

Balancing freedom/discipline,...

"d'Armond Speers spoke only Klingon to his child for the first three years of its life. Klingon? Not Spanish, French, Mandarin? Not some gutteral genuflecting concoction from the deepest recesses of Borneo? Klingon? You heard it right. (And if you don't know about the Klingon Empire, look it up.) 'I was interested in the question of whether my son, going through his first language acquisition...

They're Joking. Aren't they? (Free subscription) | 1 hour ago
Lesbians! Professors! 30 million pounds! Over at Civitas they have a post that perfectly combines an eye-catchingly prurient title with the slow, logical, brutal peeling of what appears to be an evidence-free assertion of cultural relativism presented as scientific gospel by a Third Sector scientisticalist. Do Lesbians Make Better Parents than Mums and Dads? Professor Stephen Scott is Professor of...

NaBloPoMo Day 20: The Tao of Pooh - Not a Fool
Red Lotus Mama (Free subscription) | 4 hours ago
I really am finding The Tao of Pooh by Benjamin Hoff to speak more and more to me. It explains the most complicated life problems in the simplest way. For example: The wise know their limitations; the foolish do not. It has been a brutal work week for me. Not because I don't understand the work, but because I have an outrageous amount of it. I have been working the minute my laptop turns off until...

Daddy, I made up the jokes
The Guardian (Free subscription) | yesterday
Suburban sitcom Outnumbered could easily have flopped. Instead its child stars are up against Charlie Brooker for a comedy award Andy Hamilton and Guy Jenkin's sitcom Outnumbered should have been a disaster. At least three-fifths of its humour depends on the improvisatory skills of a trio of child actors, one of whom was only five when the sitcom started two years ago. Little as contrary to sensible...

Doctors, Pastors
33 Names of Grace (Free subscription) | yesterday
I had an appointment with a new doctor this week. I get a new doctor every year, apparently -- ever since moving back to the Twin Cities my doctors keep moving away after a year of me. (Maybe I shouldn't take it personally.) So last time I was in my clinic I asked a staff person: give me the name of a female doctor who has been here awhile. And so my appointment. I was thrilled with her, and hope I...

Love in Infant Monkeys
Blog Town, PDX (Free subscription) | yesterday
Lydia Millet's new story collection, Love in Infant Monkeys , is one of my favorite books of the year. Each story is about the relationship between a celebrity and an animal, either directly or obliquely—an internal monologue from Madonna after she's shot and killed a pheasant; a melancholy profile of the professional dog-walker who cares for David Hasslehoff's dog; an account of Nicholas Tesla's...

Re B: Why a grandmother was preferred to a father

Re B (A Child) [2009] UKSC 5 concerned a three year-old boy who had been cared for since birth by his maternal grandmother, who was granted a residence order by consent in November 2006....
