Anthony Esolen on Raising Boys

What Mothers Cannot Give to Their Sons

This part is objectionable:
"though the public arena should ultimately be placed in the service of hearth and home, rather than hearth and home merely supplying a temporary haven of relief from the arena."

Is the community or the common good or the "public arena," the domain of men and their fraternal cooperation, subordinate to the good of the household? Or is the good of the household part of the common good?
