Boys Quote by William Murray, 1st Earl of Mansfield

“We are completely void of anything to do with God. Teachers can't touch a child - even to hug a crying child. Young boys are on Ritalin and a lot of the problem is because we have a female-dominated educational system which tries to make little boys act like little girls.” quote by William Murray, 1st Earl of Mansfield
