...they're shortsighted, say the experts on play. Alvin Rosenfeld, co-author of The Over-Scheduled Child: Avoiding the Hyper-Parenting Trap, holds an old-fashioned view of play: it's joyful and emotionally nourishing. Stuart Brown, a retired psychiatrist and founder of the Institute for Play in Carmel Valley, Calif., believes that too little play may have a dark side.

...Play doesn't just make kids happy, healthy and human. It may also make them smarter, says Rosenfeld.

While I agree with the sentiment expressed by Orr, Shames and Rosenfeld in their critique of Farris's portrayal of the "Ideal Harvard President" (Letters, "Cartoon Objectifies," Feb. 22), I think their anger is misdirected. I would like to point out that the image used in the cartoon--an incredibly exaggerated and emaciated female body--has been the dominant symbol in the Steve Madden advertisement campaign for over two years. I have long been appalled at the unhealthy and overtly stereotypical image of a tiny waist and gargantuan legs being sold to young women...
