READ OUR REPORT: The Future of the Family - https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/pamphlets The nuclear family is the single most important institution in any society. Without it, our very existence would quickly become jeopardized. Yet there are some who are attempting to break down the family and by doing so, their efforts are an attack on humanity. Here are three reasons why the family unit is fundamental to society. Reason #1 The Family Provides for Children Sources: 'Cohabitation and Child Wellbeing' by Wendy D. Manning -https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti... Reason #2 The Family Benefits a Child’s Education Sources: 'The Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study' https://fragilefamilies.princeton.edu/ BBC Article on the Study - https://www.bbc.com/news/education-47... Reason #3 The Family Provides for the Local Community and the Nation Sources: ‘The War Against the Family’ by William D.

Do Schools Discriminate Against Boys?
Tomorrow's World Viewpoint
Exam results suggest that girls are overtaking boys across the academic spectrum. Is this really the case? In an article in The Province (June 12, 2014) entitled “The Guys Crisis: Boys are falling badly behind the girls at school,” author Paul Luke states, “By high school, girls’ grade point average outshines that of boys. In Canada, women make up almost 60 percent of university students.” He explains the phenomenon by suggesting that for too long the needs of girls were overlooked in school and now that things are more equitable, girls outshine boys in learning. Recently, however, Dr. Jim Dueck, author, former Assistant Deputy Minister of Education for the province of Alberta, and former head of Accountability and Student Assessment, performed a revealing analysis on current practices in student assessment. The results were not only remarkable but very disturbing, exposing what might well be an institutional suppression of the performance of male students.

Good dads -- the real game changer | Dr. Meg Meeker | TEDxTraverseCity
TEDx Talks
This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Dads, says Meg Meeker, are the real gamechangers for kids and the culture, because they are the KEY in developing a child’s healthy self esteem, in keeping kids in school and seeking higher education and in staying out of trouble. If Dads could see themselves from behind their kids’ eyes, she claims, their lives would never be the same. Better dads means healthier kids who grow into successful adults. And strong adults create a healthier culture. No, it’s not always about Mom. Dr. Meeker is a pediatrician, who has practiced pediatric and adolescent medicine for 25 years. She is the author of six books including the best-selling Strong Fathers/ Strong Daughters: Ten Secrets Every Father Should Know, Boys Should Be Boys, Your Kids At Risk, The 10 Habits of Happy Mothers: Reclaiming Our Passion, Purpose and Sanity, Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters: The 30 Day Challenge and Strong Mothers, Strong Sons: Lessons Mothers Need to Raise Extraordinary Men, Ballentine Books, April 2014. She is a popular speaker on pediatric health issues and child-parent relationships. Meg is Co-host and Physician-in-Residence of Dr. James Dobson's Family Talk radio program. She is also, Assistant Clinical Professor at Michigan State University College of Human Medicine and currently teaches medical students and physicians in residency training. She has been married to her husband, Walter for 32 years. They have shared a medical practice for over 20 years. They have three grown daughters and a grown son. She lives in northern Michigan. About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

What's Your Code of Honor?
Tomorrow's World Viewpoint
Do we show honour towards each other or has society, in its failure to differentiate between right and wrong, also lost its adherence to a conventional standard of conduct? Do you live by The Honour Principle? When we hear stories about deceit, corruption, and infidelity filling the news headlines, it should make us wonder, “Where has all the honour gone?” We are witnessing a changing world where more and more people show less respect and honour and are too often indifferent or outright belligerent towards one another. In a book written by Robert Barriger, the author asks the question “Where Has All the Honor Gone?” He writes about “Experiencing the Power of the Honour Principle and How it Can Add Significance to Your Life.” This work explores and explains the critical need to restore and integrate this valuable truth of honour in all areas of life; work, family and leadership. While we are not in agreement with many of his religious beliefs, we do see that on the matter of maintaining honour he has a point.” Mr Barriger states: “To give and to receive honor is a basic human need,” and “There is a cry in the human heart for honor”. So yes, people seem to crave it but do they recognize that those they have relationships with also need it, and are they willing to give? Barriger continues, “Unfortunately our media intensive world too often celebrates superficiality with focus on people like Lady Gaga, or fantasy heroes like Spiderman. Honor is more than fame or power it is a spiritual principle and measure of character.”…“When we give honor to our spouses, families, churches and nation, we help to build our communities” Barriger concludes “The Honour Principle is not found on a list it is found in the heart and must be lived.” The word honour originates from the word esteem, meaning to respect and value. So do we respect and value those around us? Do we honour only those who are honourable? Are there daily situations where this time-proven principle should be practiced? The principle of honour needs to be applied regularly in the home, on the job, in government and even on our roads and highways. There used to be a time when it meant a great deal to people. Men would meet on the “field of honour” and be willing to give their lives and die that they might retain their honour. The “field of honour” was known as the place where duels were fought, where men would stand back to back, pistol in hand, walk 10-20 paces then turn around and fire!! I am certainly not condoning dueling as a means to defend your honour, but what it illustrates is that a person’s honour meant something. They would go to their grave to ensure their honour remained intact. Women also once took great care to live their lives in such a way that they would never “lose their honour.” Chastity was one of the codes of honour, a concept not widely practiced today. Unfortunately however, chastity has all too seldom been considered honourable on the part of men through the ages.” A well-known United States Military Academy prides itself on being an institution where this principle still has high value. Those enrolled at West Point are still guided by the motto “Duty, Honor, Country”. West Point stresses the development of cadets intellectually, physically, militarily, ethically, spiritually, and socially. They even have an honour code: “A cadet will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do”. Those are high ideals—the honour principle is widely promoted at that institution but no doubt there have been failures along the way. Sadly though, honour is not being held in the highest regard or valued as it once was. The daily news is often filled with examples of men and women, leaders in their respective fields, who have come up far too short. These individuals get caught up in their own weaknesses and as a result have failed those who once looked to them as respected leaders. In the end their behaviour affected their careers and focus—they did not lead their lives above reproach—they lost respect and honour and character. They did not make wise decisions. ---------- www.tomorrowsworld.org Viewpoint Archives - http://www.lcgCanada.org/viewpoint-ar...
