There's very little discussion of them, and also little discussion about the "academic gap" with men doing worse than women in school.
One of the worst results of today's lazy teachers needing medical help to teach "hyper" boys. Boys are more hyper than girls in general. If and when I have kids, unless my son is completely off the rails, there is no way in hell I'm putting him on Ritalin or some other similar drug. We had plenty of boys in my schools that were problem children. The solution wasn't medication. It was discipline. They turned out fine, me included.
The problem is that because of boys' rambunctious nature, teachers are more apt to cater to girls at a young age because they're easier. This is human nature.
Don't believe me? Ask your teacher friends. Ask a teacher you know that isn't your son's or daughter's teacher since he/she will probably lie. I know there has been an article written on this in the past five years, but I'd have to drag it up from the depths of the internet.

While all of this is correct, there are also a lot of other shitty variables as to why women are outperforming men in schools.
