'What About the Boys?'

Article here. Excerpt:

'About five years ago, Peg Tyre, a long-time education journalist, wrote a book called The Trouble With Boys which discussed why boys were not being served well in today’s public schools. Christina Hoff Sommers wrote a similar book, entitled The War on Boys: How Misguided Feminism is Harming Our Young Men. Other books have been written on the topic as well. About a year ago the Westchester County Psychological Association had Ms. Tyre give a presentation, along with David Greene, a retired Scarsdale High School teacher, regarding what they have observed as the education system has changed throughout the years. Much of what they said stuck with me, and has influenced my work with youngsters.'
