Story
新年度を迎え、またネットではPTA周りの問題が騒がれる時期となった。毎年この時期は、新委員の選出が行われる。特に1年生の保護者は、まだ活動内容も勝手もわからないうちから委員選出に巻き込まれるわけで、なかなかしんどい話である。 娘が入学した中学校では例年、入学式に出席した保護者を、式典終了後に体育館に残して、そこで委員の選出を行なう。委員が決まらないと、体育館から出られないし帰れないという。PTAの委員決めの伝説は数々聞いてきたが、これはかなりの強行派だと言える。 そもそも任意団体であるPTAの委員を決めるのに、全員を体育館に軟禁することは違法である。いやその前に、入会の同意を取らないこと自体、憲法第21条に謳われた「結社の自由」に反する。憲法第21条の1には、以下のように書かれている。(本文より)小寺・西田の「金曜ランチビュッフェ」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/kode-nishi.html

Story
以前、新潟県青少年健全育成県民大会というのに呼ばれて、青少年のつながり依存について講演してきた。この講演を最初にやったのは、今年1月の内閣府主催「青少年のインターネット利用環境づくりフォーラム」だったのだが、これがなかなか評判がよく、いろんなところからあの講演をやってくれと依頼が来るようになった。もう今回で4回目ぐらいである。さてこの青少年健全育成県民大会というのは、現役の保護者やPTAではなく、いわゆる「なんとか育成会」クラスの方々が集まる会のようで、全体的に年齢層が高かった。育成会にはいろんなパターンがあるのだが、一般的には元PTA役員などが、すでに子供は大きくなって学校から離れてしまったけど、地域の有識者として学校や子供達に貢献したいという主旨で集まったものであることが多い。さらにスポーツの振興会とかと一緒になったりするケースもあって、本当に色々である。(本文より) 小寺・西田の「金曜ランチビュッフェ はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/kode-nishi.html

Story
2010年ぐらいから、「若者の〇〇離れ」という分析記事が目立ってきた。当時の趣旨は、「家や車が売れない! 日本経済どうすんだ!」って話だったのだが、ここ5年の間で大震災が起こり政権が交代し、最近はこの「モノが売れない話」も少しずつ論調が変わってきたように思える。 要するに資本主義社会が限界にきてるんじゃないか、もうちょっと正確に言うと、いくら若者の消費を焚きつけても昭和50年代から平成1桁ぐらいまでの経済成長水準に戻ることはもう不可能なので、じゃあこの先の社会どうしようか、という話に主眼が移ってきたということである。あと5年10年で資本主義から脱却しようというわけではないが、50年ぐらいのスパンで考えたら、社会は新しい概念へ移行せざるをえないのだろうと思う。(本文より)小寺・西田の「金曜ランチビュッフェ」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/kode-nishi.html

The plane is jam-packed. Every seat is taken. So of course the flight is delayed! Flight attendant Allegra Patel likes her job—she’s generally happy with her life, even if she can’t figure out why she hooks up with a man she barely speaks to—but today is her twenty-eighth birthday. She can think of plenty of things she’d rather be doing than placating a bunch of grumpy passengers.

Harry Potter has never even heard of Hogwarts when the letters start dropping on the doormat at number four, Privet Drive. Addressed in green ink on yellowish parchment with a purple seal, they are swiftly confiscated by his grisly aunt and uncle. Then, on Harry's eleventh birthday, a great beetle-eyed giant of a man called Rubeus Hagrid bursts in with some astonishing news: Harry Potter is a wizard, and he has a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. An incredible adventure is about to begin!

Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

Especially not when I plead for him to leave. He's always there, watching and waiting. And I can never look away. Not when I want him to come closer. The Shadow. I didn't mean to fall in love. But now that I have, I can't stay away. I'm mesmerized by her smile, by her eyes, and the way she moves. I'll keep watching and waiting. Until I can make her mine. And once she is, I'll never let her go.

Ta-Nehisi Coates originally set out to write a book about writing, in the tradition of Orwell’s classic “Politics and the English Language,” but found himself grappling with deeper questions about how our stories—our reporting and imaginative narratives and mythmaking—expose and distort our realities. In the first of the book’s three intertwining essays, Coates, on his first trip to Africa, finds himself in two places at once: in Dakar, a modern city in Senegal, and in a mythic kingdom in his mind.

Lily hasn’t always had it easy, but that’s never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants.

Story
The Bobiverse is a different place in the aftermath of the Starfleet War, and the days of the Bobs gathering in one big happy moot are far behind. There’s anti-Bob sentiment on multiple planets, the Skippies playing with an AI time bomb, and multiple Bobs just wanting to get away from it all. But it all pales compared to what Icarus and Daedalus discover on their 26,000-year journey to the center of the galaxy.

Everyone expected Violet Sorrengail to die during her first year at Basgiath War College―Violet included. But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky. Now the real training begins, and Violet’s already wondering how she’ll get through. It’s not just that it’s grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it’s designed to stretch the riders’ capacity for pain beyond endurance. It’s the new vice commandant, who’s made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is–unless she betrays the man she loves.

Story
There is no bigger public health story now than the collapse in youth mental health. The numbers are terrifying and dominate our headlines. There has been much debate over how we got here, and what to do next, and bestselling author and social psychologist Jonathan Haidt is at the white-hot center of that discourse. Haidt has spent his career speaking wisdom and truth into the most difficult landscapes—communities polarized by politics and religion, campuses battling culture wars, and now the perfect storm contributing to a public health emergency for Gen Z.
