Told ya’ so…
“Classroom cultures that favor female students and an increase in learning disabilities may explain the academic gap.”
this is exactly why I’m taking time off from school at the moment… who wants to sit in a classroom and be bored when you could be doing other things? I think the current education system is absolute crap and needs to be re-built from the ground up. (see linked article for more.)
follow-up:
“The WAR AGAINST BOYS : How Misguided Feminism Is Harming Our Young Men” — I encourage you to scroll down and read Amazon’s review, as well as what readers have said near the bottom. Not only has almost everyone given the book 4 or 5 stars, but everyone’s raving with what the author has to say.
“Girls Rule” — Similar to the book linked above, another interesting article.
Why doesn’t somebody do something? This doesn’t seem like a new problem….
