子どもへの性加害は、心身に深い傷を残す卑劣な行為だ。

A holiday classic by Charles Dickens. Originally published in 1843, Dickens worried about the disparity between the wealthy and the impoverished, and it was his attempt to bring this disparity into the light of day, to appeal to the die-hard capitalists to take care of the downtrodden masses. Since this inequity continues, this story is still popular, and will probably continue to be so for the foreseeable future.

Beneath the postcard image of Prince Edward Island lies a truth the province has long tried to forget.

Med Mysteriet om unges mistrivsel – en lille bog om et stort problem tager hun skammen ud af krisen, afmystificerer mistrivslen og opfordrer til at handle. I denne bog er hovedpointen, at mistrivsel ikke er et individuelt problem, men derimod mange familiers erfaring – også blandt i øvrigt privilegerede familier – og alles opgave. Som hun skriver: "Det er som om, at det er ude af mine hænder, om det bliver mine eller nogle andres børn, der skal indgå i mistrivselsstatistikkerne."

All forms of recreational digital consumption—whether on smartphones, tablets, game consoles, or TVs—have skyrocketed in the younger generations. Most media experts do not seem overly concerned about this situation: children are adaptable, they say, they are "digital natives," their brains have changed and screens make them smarter. But other specialists—including some pediatricians, psychiatrists, teachers, and speech therapists—dispute these claims, and many parents worry about the long-term consequences of their children's intensive exposure to screens.

You need to hear the bad news first: the results of STEM outreach to girls haven’t improved in twenty years. The good news? This book will tell you why, and how to fix it. Currently, dated narratives push girls away in fear, and blind spots result in missed opportunities to pull them in. While efforts to increase diversity in science and mathematics have succeeded, outreach has largely ignored engineering—where there is still only one woman for every five men. This is especially troubling because engineering offers vastly more jobs than other STEM fields.
