Yep. It’s not just feminist teachers driving boy students down. It’s feminist moms.

Hard-charging feminist careerist moms are giving their sons short shrift. With no full-time mom at home to push and encourage them, adolescent boys grow up as alienated slackers. The daughters, by contrast, are taught to do their homework and become independent women who don’t need men.

It’s the prescription for disaster. America has a lot of shacked-up young people who delay marriage, divorce frequently, and have only a few lonely kids.

There are parents who push their kids to excel in sports to get scholarships, so they don't have enough time for their studies. These kids may play on college teams, dreaming of being a professional, then when they're injured simply don't know what to do with themselves. Or the parents push their kids so hard in high school that the kids get into the good college their parents wanted, and just slack off because they've reached their goal.

Our son once told us he appreciated the fact that we DIDN'T nag him about doing well in school all the time. He had friends in college who hardly spoke to their parents anymore, because they were finally free of the haranguing. That was very sad to hear. We didn't have to harangue our son, because he had a very strong internal drive, and still does, as an attorney who wants to be a judge, someday.
