I started this blog really to chronicle the early years of parenting. It seemed a good way to work out on paper the giddiness and angst of navigating someone else's education and maturation. In that vein, I plan to post interesting stories, theories and trends related to children, education and parenting. Here are a couple:
A New York City painter has movingly chronicled the early years of both his sons' lives via short films. The first was done three years ago. The second appeared in the New York Times today. These are really, really sweet.
On a frightening and what-the-heck-is-wrong-with-these-parents note, this Washington Post story of a grade schooler driving the family car to school because he was so anxious to get the free breakfast. Turns out the dad had been under a court order not to leave the kids alone with mom, but Dad had to work and Mom had to get her sleep. Again I ask, what the heck is wrong with these parents?
