[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have over fifty first cousins (we are Arabs) and I can tell you that the girls are more successful than the boys. Boys need a lot of support, are more prone to drugs and depression, and they are terrible about asking for help. A lot of parents fail to recognize that. [/quote] Correct. But then don't blame the girls for the boys' failures. It's the whining and scapegoating that's so damaging to finding solutions.[/quote] Or take it a step further and realize the system in place for generations set up to coddle boys was a waste of resources.[/quote] I don’t think you have it right. The public school system I went through in Illinois wasn’t set up to coddle boys, but rather was immersed with competition. No group projects which many times involve make work. I was a poor single mother kid and was stimulated by math games competitions and the like. It really made a difference. [/quote]
