Par Kay S Hymowitz. 2017
Children seem to be growing up more quickly than ever before. Almost daily we hear astonishing examples of young people…
flying airplanes, running companies, or committing adult crimes. In this shrewd and compelling book, scholar and journalist Kay S. Hymowitz offers a startling explanation for today's sophisticated youngsters. For generations, unique American ideas of childrearing have created adults who both think independently and feel accountable to others. But the way we raise our children has been changing. During the 20th-century, experts began telling us youngsters have little need for instruction or supervision--in fact, children really are small adults who already know what is best for themselves. Senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute and an affiliate scholar at the Institute for American Values, Kay S. Hymowitz reveals why so many of our children continue to act childishly when they grow up. 2017.Raising boys in a new kind of world

début des années 1950 jusqu'aux années 1980, la naissance et l'épanouissement de la télévision publique a été une belle et grande aventure qui lui a permis de côtoyer au jour le jour les créateurs les plus talentueux, de les encourager et de les soutenir. Mais, comme dans toutes les vraies aventures, rien ne se passe comme prévu: auteurs, réalisateurs, comédiens, artisans et producteurs, chacune et chacun en aurait long à raconter. Comment pourrait-il en être autrement quand on pense seulement à Bobino et Bobinette, aux Beaux Dimanches, à La Course autour du monde, à Lance et compte ou au Défi mondial?
