I don’t like how rehearsed they sound. Not at all natural and honest. But heck, the book seems awesome (I read one chapter at the book store) so I’ll forgive them for their Americanized method of promoting their product.
excellent book and great article in newsweek, Sept 2009. Great READ!!!!!
It looks like he is wearing blush. Pretty color.
The book tells what double blind controlled studies suggests about rearing children. It’s a reality check on idealism. It’s a worthy read for any prospective parent or teacher.
Oh yes, of couse children should not be allowed to categorize for themselves… they should instead be guided by the values and mores of “Po” and “Ashley”! People like this make me sick. Haven’t these sawed-off “experts” done enough damage to children? Haven’t they damaged our society enough without giving rise to a whole new batch of them with a whole new batch of ideas that will be proven false and detrimental in the years to come? You two go get a job and quit playing “expert” all day!
Very cool! This was filmed outside the Doe Library and inside the Morrison Library at UC Berkeley
