As a father of 3 middle school daughters and a coach of competitive "club/travel" sports teams, I find it odd that there is any question about their being (in general) a wide gap between how boys and girls at this age behave and learn. Sure there are individuals who don't represent the norm but in general there is clearly a chasm. I think the notion that we are "failing our boys" is laughable. We (males) clearly do fine in the end. Systemically, we are "failing our daughters" if anything.
