"The Marriage Effect | A common narrative has it that commitment and motherhood make women unhappy. New data suggest the opposite is true" @jean_twenge@TheAtlantic
The loss of place is a real loss, worthy of deep grief.
“There are moments when the heart is generous. . . it knows that for better or worse our lives are woven together here, one with one another and with the place and all the living things.”
—Wendell Berry, ‘Jayber Crow’
Yes, we can. It's called heroic masculinity and all the well-meaning women in the world can't create it or police it. They can learn to identify it, though, and the men who can help their sons develop it.
Boys are born into a great destiny. Watch how interested they are in stories about heroes. Don't get in the way of that.

@BrentBeshore Lots of great responses in here, Brent. A few things our kids have loved:
• The Warrior Kid series by @jockowillink. Entrepreneurship + great lessons
• Creating & selling together - lemonade stands, baked goods
• Greenlight for investing, saving, allowance
