She's not an ostrich. |
NP. I’m a teacher. Roughly half the ones I see are struggling. Sometimes pretty well-concealed and other times, openly. It cuts across SES and race/ethnicity. The pandemic was very hard on boys. |
Teacher, thank you for acknowledging this. |

A teacher? Finding fault with boys?
Shocker. |
How is that an attack? It is not normal to feel “anxious” about something like this unless there is a personal stake in it. I see she is a teacher. Blaming this on the pandemic. Which is just incredibly stupid. |
Took care of the house for 4 hours? What does that even mean? |
| It’s the fault of whoever is raising them. Do better. |
Your post speaks for itself. SMH |
Really, what a shock! And enough with the pandemic garbage, kids are resealing and do bounce back quickly. Maybe, just maybe, the decades of fighting against masculinity and toxic males has trickled down to these young men. I would hate to be a man in this world today, vilified since boyhood for just being male. Good job women! |
| Most school environments do nothing to support boys and the way they develop from a neurological standpoint. It all all too sedentary for them. And they you wonder why they are all classified as having ADHD. The screens make this worse |
And yet somehow these victims manage to thrive enough to be over-represented in tech, politics, paid more in Hollywood, etc. So obviously they’re capable of quite a bit! |
That's not it. Schools in previous decades were more sedentary. But expected that boys could and would behave and learn. Now we just excuse boys and let them fail. |
| When it comes to raising a mature and well-adjusted kid, it's all about fostering a supportive environment that encourages responsibility, accountability, and personal growth. Focus on teaching them essential life skills, setting clear boundaries, promoting positive values, and encouraging open communication. |
| Self-fulfilling prophecy. When they see, hear, and believe something about themselves, that's what happens. We see the same thing with girls' self-image and media. |
