Description:

The purpose of this site, in a nutshell, is to transfer some of what I have seen and learned to the next generation.The reason I think this site's content might be usefulto the next generation is that I have come to realize,B.F. Skinner (1904-1990), experimental psychologistI'm going to try to counteract that here.The central theme of these pages is the longtime focus ofmy research, indeed my search as a human being: how can people of different generations interact with each other in a way that benefits both.For reasons that I will explain throughout (and that hopefullymake sense at every level), I will focus on the interrelationshipsof boys and men. I trust that insightful women will parallel my efforts with discussions of how girls and women can benefit from interactingwith each other as they develop.The possibilities of positive cross-sex interactions -- girl-man and boy-woman -- also need discussion, and I invite other scholars to address these topics.Using the terms interactions and interrelationships to describe my theme for these pages will raise some red flags in the minds of some readers.Details of my position will be found elsewhere at this site. For now, here's the bottom line: I advocate complete abstinence from sexual contact betweenadults and minors.I believe that unacceptable harm to all concerned is virtuallyinevitable under the customs, values and attitudes of our society.I am personally responsible for whatever isposted here, but not for any material found atother sites to which I have linked.My plan is to spend the next 20 years or so buildingthis site, then spend the remaining time after thatsitting in a rocking chair somewhere reading it (orhaving someone read it to me!). In the meantime, perhaps others will find it instructive, interesting, maddening, helpful, amusing, silly or evenworthless.I promise it will be all of that.The developmental psychologist Erik Eriksen (1902-1994) described for useight stages of life, the seventh of whichextends into our middle-60s and is characterized by either the failure of stagnation or the virtue (success) of generativity.I believe this virtue can be realized through parenting, community service, philanthropy, writing and any number of ways of giving back to the culture the tangibles and intangiblesthat one has acquired in living life. This is not always easy.Ruth Gordon (1896-1985), writer/actressJune 6, 1977 interview in The Christian Science Monitor
