When it comes to gender and children, popular media coverage is frequently not up to the task of capturing the complexity of the issues involved. All too often the whole story remains untold. The intricacies of gender, combined with the sensitivity of any topic related to kids often results in shortsighted and simplistic analysis. In such contexts, serious discourse and understanding are sacrificed in favor of sensational headlines and superficial reporting.
