What's new in the FamilyEducation blogs:

"The man cave has gained some serious cultural traction over the past few years. It's the space in the house -- usually in a finished basement -- that belongs solely to the more testosterone-fueled member of the family. Lots of guys deck out their man caves with sports memorabilia, or superhero decals, or video games, or other stuff you'd think we'd have grown out of around the time we got our driver's licenses."
