And just a few other articles....

First things first, just about the only cheerful link you're going to get!

One article on modern childhood.

A graph showing the difference between the demographics of the US and of Congress.

And this post about what has to be one of the most outrageous rape cases I've ever heard of.

And finally, this article about a woman who withheld cancer treatment from her autistic child. Yes, Time, it *is* murder if you keep lifesaving medicine away from your kid - particularly one who cannot talk and who is too young to trust him to have much of a say in his course of treatment anyway. (Comments where I got this article indicate that she didn't even quit openly, she simply stopped giving him the medicine and lied about it.)

I have to admit I sort of lump middle class and upper class people together in my mind because I think the experiences and values of the working class are more different from both of them than they differ from each other.

What's FRK?

Free Range Kids. Google it :)

The woman posts a lot of good links.
