The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

"America’s Young Men Are Falling Even Further Behind
Men in their 20s and early 30s are much more likely than female peers to live with their parents, and many say they feel aimless and isolated"

Sounds like a self inflicted wound.

After all, the Lord helps those that help themselves.

From the link below:

”Nationally, the six-year graduation rate in 2022 was 64.9%. The graduation rate for women (67.9%) was more than 6 percentage points higher than for men (61.3%).

Among adults, men are more likely than women to cite factors that reflect personal choices to not attend college or complete their degrees. According to the Pew Research Center, about a third (34%) of men without a bachelor’s degree say a major reason they didn’t finish college is that they just didn’t want to. Only one-in-four women said the same. Men were also a bit more likely than women to say a major reason they don’t have a four-year degree was that they didn’t need more education for the job they wanted.”
