On this day in history, March 17, 1776, British troops flee Boston after dramatic 11-month siege by militia
close Video Boston won its rebellion against the British Empire on this day in history, March 17, 1776 Boston’s long-simmering rebellion against Britain ended in remarkable victory following a dramatic 11-month siege by New Englanders against the Redcoats in the port city. British troops and loyalists fled Boston by ship for Canada in "disgrace" after nearly a decade of occupation that incited protest, bloodshed and then revolution, on this day in history, March 17, 1776. "Surely it is the Lord's doings and it is marvelous in our eyes," patriot and future first lady Abigail Adams wrote of the incredible victory by the pugnacious little city over the mighty British crown. The humiliating flight of King George III's forces in the face of his disloyal subjects is still celebrated each year as Evacuation Day, a civic holiday, in Boston.

PETER HITCHENS: Making women wage slaves suits everyone well – except women and children, of course
How bizarre that the keystone of a supposedly conservative budget is a plan to help women abandon their children and go out to work . Anti-family socialists and dogmatic hard-line feminists – often the same people – have long sought to turn women into wage-slaves. The old Communist East Germany managed to cram 90 per cent of its women into factories and offices in the 1980s, and counted it a great triumph. Some modern feminists admire this to this day. For them, the only good life is the life of paid work. The only 'working women' are those who work outside the home. The huge, responsible, future-defining task of raising the next generation as good women and men is dismissed as servitude, and farmed out to paid strangers. Big business has felt the same way, seeing the new untapped female workforce as much preferable to the old male working class, most of which was chucked on the national scrapheap during the Thatcher years, along with the blast furnaces, pithead winding gear, … [Read more...] about PETER HITCHENS: Making women wage slaves suits everyone well – except women and children, of course

What if Kids Are Sad and Stressed Because Their Parents Are?
There is a depressing familiarity now to the conversations I’m hearing among parents of teenagers. After the obligatory pleasantries, talk often turns to mental health. Someone’s daughter is struggling, battling body image issues. Someone’s son is sullen and lost in video games. The parental concerns of previous generations (sex, drugs and rock ’n’ roll) have been replaced by a new triumvirate: anxiety, depression and suicidal ideation. As a parent of a teenager, I see this world every day. It’s the message I hear from my peers. So I’ve been following the discussion of rising teenage anxiety with intense interest — in particular, the role of social media , secularization and politics in immiserating our children. But there’s a factor that’s received insufficient attention in the debate over external factors in teenage suffering: What if the call is also coming from inside the house? What if parents are inadvertently contributing to their own kids’ pain? Just as there is a … [Read more...] about What if Kids Are Sad and Stressed Because Their Parents Are?
