The Collapse of Parenting: Why It's Time for Parents to Grow Up
MACLEANS.CA -- [ISMAILI DIGEST ED: For those unaware, Macleans is Canada's "Time Magazine."] ARTICLE: Not long ago, Dr. Leonard Sax was at a restaurant and overheard a father say to his daughter, "Honey, could you please do me a favour? Could you please just try one bite of your green peas?" To many this sounds like sophisticated parenting -- gentle coaxing formed as a question to get the child's co-operation without threatening her autonomy. To Sax the situation epitomized something much worse: the recent collapse of parenting. The scene is a prime example of parents relinquishing authority, losing confidence in themselves and defering to kids. A rule such as "No dessert until you eat your broccoli" has morphed into "How about three bites of broccoli, and then you can have dessert?" The command has become a question capped with a bribe. "When parents ...

Tuesday's Teachings (From Life)
Who Is Nassim Taleb? Antifragile Thinking for a Fat-Tailed World
FS.BLOG -- Nassim Taleb is exquisitely credentialed: a Wharton MBA and PhD from the University of Paris, yet believes that academia produces insights that are far removed from the realities of the world, and that credentials are largely for show.... "We are made to follow leaders who can gather people together because the advantages of being in groups trump the disadvantages of being alone. It has been more profitable for us to bind together in the wrong direction than to be alone in the right one. Those who have followed the assertive idiot rather than the introspective wise person have passed us some of their genes." ...

Think of Ismaili Digest as the Front Page of all the best Ismaili websites! Ismaili Digest automatically and continuously brings together all new articles, photos, videos, etc. from Ismaili websites -- like The Ismaili, Simerg, IIS, NanoWisdoms, AKDN, Ismailimail, etc. -- so you can see them all at once. Direct links to over 15,000 web-pages from the best Ismaili websites already available. Ismaili Digest saves you (and those who are not tech savvy, such as seniors) the effort of having to visit them one by one to keep up to date, or have your inbox cluttered with emails from each of them when they publish new content. In a busy world, our sense of belonging to our community sometimes tends to wither and fade (particularly for isolated Jamati members). We hope Ismaili Digest's simplicity and comprehensiveness will help you feel connected as well as feel the local and global pulse of the community. Like many other non-commercial, public-service thematic website aggregators, Ismaili Digest is just a thematic aggregator. We publish short 50-60 word digests of all their content and provide direct links to their original pages saving you time, extra page loads and clicks. For the website publishers, direct links ensure they'll get the maximum number of potential visitors reaching their content so their hard work gets the maximum exposure. Also featured are other important articles, research and opinions relevant to the community's well being, intellectual growth, best practises and administration. And all served with a drop of humour as well, because "we are a community that welcomes the smile!" Ismaili Digest is not associated with any private Ismaili website, whether aggregated by Ismaili Digest or not. All websites Ismaili Digest aggregates are independent websites run by their individual owners and we are not responsible for content they publish. |
