This is pompous drivel. Instead of lamenting the reading habits of people that work hard and take care of their families maybe we should try to get everyone with children to be responsible parents. The author mistakes the hard won victories of modern society for some nondescript juvenilism.


Not only does it sound like you didn't read the article to the end, it sounds like you didn't even bother to skim past the first 1/3.


Updike dealt with infidelity and so did Don Draper. The author contradicts his thesis in the last paragraph. Did you have a point, he didn't.

I didn't know we had to make a choice.
