The Vox Box

What IF mothers ruled the world?

I stole this question from DFO on the Huckleberries blog. Today they are talking about Sally Field's speech at the Emmy's where she credited mothers everywhere. (She plays a mommy on the ABC show "Brothers and Sisters.")

Said Sally: "And, let's face it, if the mothers ruled the war, there would be no (expletive) wars in the first place."

What do you think? How WOULD the world look if mothers ruled?



In 2006, then-editor Steve Smith of The Spokesman-Review had the idea of starting a publication for an often forgotten audience: teenagers. The Vox Box was a continuation of the Vox, an all-student staffed newspaper published by The Spokesman-Review. High school student journalists who staffed the Vox made all content decisions as they learn about the trade of journalism. This blog's mission was to give students an opportunity to publish their voices. The Vox Box and the Vox wrapped up in June 2009, but you can follow former staffers' new blog at http://voxxiez.blogspot.com.
