Sarah Marxer said… Nice job with the blog post about the so-called boy crisis, Kelly! I'm so glad you shared it. You moved elegantly from the opening about the conventional story to a convincing case for policies that would actually support mothering.

Meryl Jaffe said… - Hi Kelly. I visted your blog (ahimsamama.blogspot.com) and tried to leave the following message to your Blogging on Gender Issues. i had trouble leaving it so I am leaving one here - although I will try leaving it again. Love your blog!
Friday's Wall Street Journal had an interesting editorial about boys being weaker readers than girls and your post here reminded me of it. He raises some interesting points and I agree that parents should control internet/gaming time and rules for kids. But, I argued with two things and one is I believe the solution is instilling a love of reading - making it as much fun as gaming, making it come alive, etc. AND I point out that I have taught language arts enrichment classes for a private school and Johns Hopkins University Center for Talented Youth, and in ALL my classes above 5th grade - they were dominated by boys.
I wrote about it in my blog and would love your comments. The author of the editorial also talks (at the end) about homeschooling and how there are no sex differences there (which I also mention). I'd love if you checked it out/commented.
I so enjoy your blog and will visit again.
All the best,
Meryl

- Hi Kelly, hope all is well. Haven't heard from you so I decided to visit you here and at your blog. I loved your letterbox entry. Was wondering if we could tweek it for my blog - coauthor maybe - and co-post. I would edit some of your story and write how to debrief this with the kids and extend the learning experience. Interested? Let me know. Either way, it sounds like something you will all remember for a long time!
Talk to you soon,
Meryl

- Thanks so much for commenting on by blog. I believe I left a message on yours but for some reason I am new at this at am not sure it went through. In case it did not I basically said that I really like your blog and we are doing parallel things. Maybe we should collaborate!
