Two books to think about for next year: The Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother (Amy Chua), and Cinderella Ate My Daughter: Dispatches From the Front Lines of the New Girlie Girl Culture (Peggy Orenstein).
I haven't read either, but I think both could yield interesting discussions into our culture as it pertains to the evolution of parenting (is the first a pendulum swing to finally balance out the era of self-esteem parenting), and how we raise girls.
Thoughts?
