7:01 am
good morning, welcome to "the early show" i'm maggie rodriguez. >> i'm harry smith. the first monday in october we'll talk about in a second. first, though, we want to look again at these pictures, stunning pictures of this attack. these kinds of things happen from time to time but never with the kind of images, these lions are really going after this guy. we'll talk to the family who witnessed this all in a little while. >> and took that amazing video. first a new terror alert for americans traveling to europe. the state department is telling hundreds of thousands of u.s. citizens to be aware of possible al qaeda plots in several european cities. cbs news correspondents mark phillips is in london this morning with the latest on this alert. mark, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, maggie. well, americans now british as well have been warned to stay away from public transport and tourist sites. the alert speaks of the potential for terrorist attacks. the general public, though, short of staying home, there is confusion over what to do about
7:02 am
it. the alerts have raised fears across europe that terror groups have the public places of major capitals in their sights. the security services say they have information the attacks are aspirational, in other words, in the early planning stages and not imminent. still, people are being told to be careful. >> just got to be aware. take caution as you can because you got to go on with your life. you can't stop living. >> -- all around us all the time. >> reporter: the plots allegedly hatched by al qaeda-affiliated groups from their sanctuaries along the pakistan-afghanistan border. counter-terror agencies say their sources have reported groups mitd try to imitate the mumbai raid of two years ago, in which commando-style terrorists killed more than 170 people. but, with few exceptions, the general terror alerts across europe have not been raised. and security experts wonder whether raising anxiety levels
7:03 am
alone is counterproductive. >> it could actually have a debt ri menl affect rather raising people's awareness because it is so general. >> reporter: only france with its own terror fears because of its campaign against muslim women wearing the burqa has had specific threats and briefly closed tourist attractions like the eiffel tower but all governments are being caution. >> quite often a sense, i think, the governments are a little bit defensive. they don't want to be found not to have warned the public when there is intelligence however vague that intelligence might have been. >> reporter: the problem for the counterterrorism agencies is that have now played their hand and let these groups apparently planning attacks that they will be watched more closely. as for the general terror alert levels in europe, they remain where they were, high. mag dee? >> mark phillips in london. thank you, mark. for more, we get more from bob orr in washington.
7:04 am
good morning. >> reporter: good morning, maggie. >> a lot of people aren't sure of what to make of this, a warning not an alert not saying don't go to europe but be sayerful if you do. how can you be careful and avoid a terrorist attack? >> reporter: that's the dilemma and the problem the government had trying to figure out what to do. but, look, people should take this very seriously. i would say from talking to my sources this is the most concerned they've been in about four years, since the liquid airplane bomb plot in 2006. so, this is serious. these are real threats. tracing back to core al qaeda, there is an abundance of intelligence information most of it has now been corroborated saying al qaeda is trying to hit european cities and may eventually try to hit the united states as well. this should not be sloughed off. people should do what they can do just to be aware. common-sense approach is to kind of be vigilant. i know that sounds fuzzy but details, frankly, maggie, are fuzzy. >> there are no specific targets mentioned except possibly the
7:05 am
eiffel tower. so, what are they saying we should be doing? what does being vigilant mean? >> reporter: well, let's look at the past, where terrorists have attacked before, transit systems and public places. so, if you are traveling, going to tourist locations, if you are staying in tourist hotels, just be aware that this is in the wind. i mean, the problem here for officials in europe and the u.s. is that we don't have enough specifics to know what to defend. what we do know is that this traces back to osama bin laden and core al qaeda leaders themselves, still thought hiding somewhere in the pakistan-afghan border region. we're told that a number of afliated groups who are linked with al qaeda have basically been given their marching orders and permission to attack when and where they can. so, this is a serious deal and it comes right from the very top of the top terrorist network, mag dee. >> when we talk about al qaeda, we can't help but think especially with christmas coming up the thwarted yis mass day
7:06 am
attack last year but this is specifically just europe or is there concern there might be plans to target the u.s. as well? >> reporter: right now talking about major concerns in europe. not just one plot. we should look at these as a series of plots, kind of parallel attacks, if you will, carried out by a number of groups, praps al i could did and praps al qaeda affiliates. the primary concern right now is for europe but let's not underestimate the threat we face in this country, still under threats of attacks from al qaeda-linked groups primarily yemen, you mentioned the christmas day plot, when he tried to bring down northwest flight 253 in detroit. that plot was hatched and trained and dispatched by a group of al qaeda in yemen. so, long-term, the united states is still very much under the gun here but right now, the primary concern for the immediate future is in europe. >> and a reminder, do not believe anything is imminent but in planning stages. bob orr, thank you.
7:07 am
harry. the supreme court goes back to work this morning with a new member, justice elena kagan. for the first time of the high court will have three women on it. what can we expect this term? let's ask cbs news chef legal correspondent jan crawford in washington. good morning, jan. >> reporter: good morning, harry. >> is it t a sexist question to say will three women on the court make a difference? >> reporter: no. actually a really great question. the justices themselves have talked about that. i've seen justice o'connor and justice ginsberg over the years urge presidents to put more women on this court because while women and men may see the law and read the law in the same way they bring, obviously, a different perspective, different point of view. justice ginsberg i'll never forget, a big sex discrimination case and all the other justices were kind of saying, i don't really see the big deal, during an argument and she basically lectured them during the court session saying you guys just don't get it. so, yeah, it can make a difference. >> the other question that comes into play here is retired john
7:08 am
paul stevens head of the liberal group or de facto leader, i don't know what you could call it, of the liberal wing of the court. who becomes that now? >> reporter: well, that's kind of wide open. you will see these four liberal justices, the court is very narrowly divided, four liberals and five more conservative justices and will see the four liberals trying to figure out who will be their leader, how are they going to proceed and may not have one. they each bring, again, different points of view but justice white, a long time ago always said a new justice makes and entirely new supreme court. so, that's going to be fascinating to see how these dynamic emerge. >> people will read that justice kagan has recused herself from a number of different cases already as the court just begins work today. explain why she needed to do that. >> reporter: well, she was the solicitor general of the united states, which means she represented the obama administration's position before the supreme court. so, in all the cases the justices are considering this year and into next year, as
7:09 am
well, she's been vofltd in, she's written briefs on, that she's thought about, that she's advocated, she cannot sit on those cases. now, as a justice. so, about half of the cases the court is taking up this term she's had to step out already and could be a problem in some of them because, again this is a narrowly divided court and without that vote, it could end up being a lock, 4-4, without her there to cast that key deciding vote. >> jan crawford in washington, this morning. thank you very much for your expertise and insight. appreciate it. >> reporter: thanks, harry. >> 7:10. time for a look at the day's headlines with erica hill at the news desk. good morning, erica. >> good monday morning. a british scientist whose research helped millions of infertile couples become parents is the winner of this year's notice bell prize for medicine. >> the nobel assembly has today decided to award the nobel prize in physiology or medicine 2010 to robert edwards for the development of invitro

outside the democratic and republican parties have already spent $80 million. compare that with just $16 million spent at this point in the 2006 midterm campaign. republicans are getting most of that money. the "post" says conservatives have out-spent groups supporting democrats by a margin of 7 to 1. saturday thousands at a washington rally favoring democratic candidates on almost the same spot tea party activists rallied in august. search teams dragging the late for a man believed shot and killed by mexican pirates. they were riding jet-skis near the border. our correspondent don teague reports. >> reporter: 29-year-old tiffany hartley and her husband david were riding jet skis in mexican waters, ambushed by gunmen on boats. >> hello? >> ma'am? okay. are you sure that your husband got shot? >> yes, in his head.
7:12 am
>> reporter: the shooting involving suspected mexican pirates happened last thursday on falcon lake near the southern tip of texas. the lake sits directly on the u.s.-mexico border. >> did you see anybody? >> there were three boats. >> reporter: the colorado couple returning from sightseeinging in mexico when the gunmen in speed boats approached them and opened fire. the hartlys trade to outrun them david was hit in the head. his wife went to his aid. >> he was thrown off the jet ski and i couldn't -- >> she finally had to let go of the body, climb back in her jet ski and head back over here to safety. >> reporter: hartly's body has not been found. he is presumed dead. in may, texas officials issued a warning to boaters after reports of at least three run-ins with mexican pirates on falcon lake. authorities say many of the pirates are children. >> teenagers, pre-teens, some of them barely even know how to use
7:13 am
a weapon. the lake is not secure. we cannot go to mexico or recover that body or conduct an investigation. >> reporter: texas authorities have asked mexican officials to search their side of the lake for hartly's body. don teague, cbs news, dallas. an update on the 33 trapped mineres in chile this morning, they could be rescued within two weeks, trapped a half mile underground since august 5th. rescuers previously said they could be stuck there until november. the bbc is reporting, however, drilling is going faster than expected. a rescue capsule was successfully tested this weekend. dave price is off this morning. so, let's get your first look at today's weather after a sunny weekend the northeast could see showers today making a return along with cool and windy conditions. the southeast is looking great, though. clear skies, mild temperatures there. in the western half of the u.s., be on the lookout for thunderstorms which could form as a storm system moves through. the
7:14 am
>> that is your fr check of the weather on a monday morning. beautiful in much of the country. harry, over to you. >> erica, thank you. >> some good news this morning for at-risk homeowners, a growing number of mortgage lenders including bank of america and jpmorgan chase are putting foreclosures on hold for the time being. cbs news business and economics correspondent rebecca jarvis is here with the reasons behind it. and this is an ugly, ugly story. >> reporter: it is an ugly story and just creating a huge mess for both homeowners as well as
7:15 am
banks right now. >> what happened? >> reporter: basically what we have a bunch of banks, due to the sheer volume of all of the foreclosures, mortgage mess, high unemployment who passed paperwork through the system without dotting their is and crossing their ts and you have a bunch of foreclosures on the market that people say is that a real foreclosure, legitimate, or does that home potentially need to go back to the original buyer. >> because sof much confusion and paperwork people are writing thousands of signature as week on documents they didn't really glance at. >> reporter: they don't know what happened and what we are doing and seeing is they are paying the price. what does it mean for the homeowner? for those who are facing foreclosure right now by bank of america, jp morgan or allied financial, gmac mortgage, those individuals will see their proceedings halted in 23 states. for those who have already been evicted from from homes. >> right. >> reporter: this may raise a new legal question. they may, in fact, have a right to that home. it remains to be seen legally what will happen. but, those individuals could see
7:16 am
their legal costs paid for or they could even see their home returned to them. >> wow. so, in the short term, for the people who may be facing foreclosures, it's -- at some sort, at least a bit of good news. >> reporter: it's relief at least for the short term but remains to be seen, again, harry what happens in the long term. >> in terms of housing prices and everything else because as the economy seems to be trying to struggle to get its footing in this recovery, in quotation marks, one of the biggest drags is the housing market. >> reporter: it is. well, we're expecting this year 1.2 million foreclosures, up from last year, which was also a record one million foreclosures. what would it mean as far as home values? best case it could mean they stabilize but worst-case scenario means we delay a problem and see the problem six months perhaps down the lane and home prices plummet again. >> there you go. rebecca jarvis, as always, thanks so much. maggie. >> thank you. still ahead, rutgers university

first take a look at this unbelievable video from a sir krus in the ukraine. the lions in the act suddenly turn on the keeper. this is just absolutely chaos. hundreds of people were screaming in there. lion tamer is in the hospital, needed surgery and we'll talk exclusively to an american family who saw it all happen in just a little bit. >> also ahead this morning former president jimmy carter, his first interview since getting out of the hospital last week. he joins us exclusively this morning to talk about that sudden illness and about what the 39th president has to say to president obama and his fellow democrats with the election just a couple weeks away. but first, rutgers university holding a series of events this weekend to honor tyler clementi, the freshman who killed himself after video of his sexual encounter with another man was put on the internet. his death is one of several recent suicides blamed on anti-gay bullying. cbs news national correspondent jeff glor is in new brunswick, new jersey, with the latest there.
7:31 am
jeff, good morning. >> reporter: maggie, good morning to you. 12 days after the death of trirl clementi, the criminal investigation continues. meanwhile last night a powerful show of support. silence sunday night on the rutgers campus, sill lens intended to send a message. >> we share a conviction, firm conviction, that everyone needs a safe environment. >> reporter: several hundred people were at a candlelight vigil pleading for tolerance and remembering tyler clementi. clementi is the young violinist who took his own life learning his roommate and another student secretly used a webcam to stream live video of clementi in a sexual encounter with another man. today rum raef and molly way are charged with invasion of privacy. >> i'm so an greechlt i'm very, very angry at at what they did. >> reporter: the problem is not limited to clementi. he's one of five gay teens believed to have committed suicide in the last four weeks. shall victims of anti-gay
7:32 am
bullying like -year-old seth walsh, who hanged himself last month. those deaths are now receiving new attention as the passing of tyler clementi puts new focus on the alienation gay teenagers say they often feel. one recent survey found nearly 25% of gay college students report being the target of harassment and discrimination, while only 7% of u.s. schools offer support programs. >> if you're getting bullied and you're feeling like you're on the outskirts, it gets better. >> reporter: this weekend, mtv recorded messages of support from gay slooebts like neil patrick harris and lance bass. >> when i was in high school in mississippi i was on the first persons to jump on the bandwagon to bash a gay person and look how i turned out. i had a secret this whole time. >> reporter: while classmates mourn, the two acoups sdfd of harassing clementi could face up
7:33 am
to five years in prison some. students think that is not enough. >> i don't know if any time is enough, to make up for what they've done. >> reporter: charges could be upped if prosecutors deem this a bias crime. at the same time, one new jersey lawmaker has proposed increasing the maximum penalty for invasion of privacy crimes in the future from five years to ten. maggie? >> jeff glor at rutgers this morning, thank you, jeff. joining is cbs news legal analyst jack ford. good morning. >> good morning. >> we heard jeff say in the future the penalty might be upped but as it stands right now five years is the maximum they could get? >> maximum. a third degree offense. new jersey has five levels so a third degree offense carries a maximum penalty of five years but interestingly if you are a first-time offender. >> they are. >> exactly there, is a presumption in the law you don't go to jail, you would get some sort of probationary scheme with community service involved. so, that's what the presumption s. now, that presumption can be
7:34 am
overcome by a lot of things, a sentencing judge, if they get to that point might look at this and say there was a death here and though you are not technically charged with that death, your conduct had a direct, at least an indirect result of a death and a judge may sigh, you know what, i'm beyond the presumption of no jail time and you are going to go to jail sgr dot five years. >> yeah. >> what if they tack on hate charges. >> that's a good question. new jersey has a hate crime statute. people have to understand it's not a separate crime. what it does is, if you can prove this offense was because of somebody's -- here, the fact that they were gay, for instance, what it does is enhances, gives the judge the ability to enhance a sentence and here could double, kick it up from five years to ten years. the prosecution hasn't made that decision but they have to be in a position to prove there was a direct link between the fact he was gay and the conduct involved. >> if these two students caused this other student's death indirectly, why wouldn't there be manslaughter charges? >> a lot of people ask that,
7:35 am
making the analogy to drunk driving deaths which years and years ago were not terribly serious. now state legislators are saying we are making this manslaughter type category. right now the laws in new jersey doesn't do this and other states, two reasons saying that is not a direct link. i'm drunk, get into a car and crash into you and cause your death, there is a direct link between what i did and the death. here, you would probably argue, how would they have known that this, as bad as it was, was going to result in his death? >> he killed himself, they didn't kill him. >> exactly. he took his own life, as tragic as it is, they didn't do something like a drunk driver to cause somebody else to die. >> does the victim's family have any legal recourse, could they go after them in civil court? >> they do. you might see a civil suit afterwards, people might remember the o.j. simpson trial, you might see a civil lawsuit here intentional inflicks of emotional distress they talk about and in the civil lawsuit, they could make an argument that the death was directly linked.
7:36 am
so, the arguments would be a little bit different in the civil. but, no jail time, monetary damages. >> but they could still be found responsible for the death, like o.j. simpson was. >> exactly. >> thank you, jack. >> all right, up next, we'll talk exclusively with the family who took this horrifying video, as lions went wild at a circus. you're watching "the early show" on cbs. dog: bacon?

7:42 am
my son said i do not want to go to the circus ever again. i don't blame him. >> i don't think anyone could. shepherd's daughter left her doll at the arena. when he went back to get it, he wasn't sure if the lions were still on the loose forms fortunately, they were not but they saw workers washing down the circus ring to remove traces of the attack. harry? >> what was the most frightening moment for this family. >> there were rumors there was a hole in the sheer net surrounding the ring and frightened about the fact possibly a lion had already gotten out. can you imagine. >> betty nguyen, thank you very, very much. what a story and amazing pictures. up next, treating migraines. new research may help pinpoint the best treatment maybe even surgery for those horrible headaches. that story, when we come back. ]? nobody else has what this paint's got: and that's a number one rating. it's a paint and primer in one -- so it goes on bold, and looks even better. it means getting more done -- in half the time.

this morning's health watch migraine pain about 30 million people in this country suffer the awful throbbing headaches. a new study says the patient's age and where their head hurts might help determine the right treatment. our dr. jennifer ashton is here with more. good morning. >> good morning, maggie. people with migraines know they can go as long as 72 hours so any relief is welcome. what does this study say thirvelsts is presented in a plastic surgery journal research about a procedure around about ten years but just starting to look at really the long-term data and the surgery involves cutting nerves in four areas in the head. either in the front of the scalp, the front of the forehead, behind the eyes, actually, or in the back region of the head, those are the trigger points in the anatomy that really tend to be involved in someone's migraines. what the study showed, the people who do better with this type of surgery, those actually a little older when their migraines start and if they have all four sites prayeded on they tend to do better than if they
7:47 am
have just one site operated on. again, this is for people who mav really severe migraines that aren't responding to other treatment and really interfering with their day-to-day life. >> that study looked just at surgery. >> exactly. >> which hasn't been around that long. >> rate. >> what are other treatments that can work if somebody is suffering from a migraine? >> well, it ranges, maggie. it could be from something over-the-counter tylenol to ibuprofen to a dark room with a cold compress on your head to preegg description medication which can, like anything have side effects even alternative therapies like acupuncture are used but again you want to find out really what works for you because migraines are so individual and so distinctive person to person, i get them myself and i tell you if you know anyone whose suffered from them he they can really be a significant problem. >> so, you don't want to get them at all. >> correct. >> is there anything you can do to prevent a migraine? >> well, it's great if you know what triggers your particular migraines because this is not a one-size-fits-all scenario.
7:48 am
were you a couple triggers some find they suffer them when the seasons change or acute changes in the weather. obviously, you can't change the weather but if you know that's your trigger, you can maybe get involved in your treatment a little sooner. hormonal changes for women with their menstrual cycle, very, very xhong common. sometimes stress is the trigger and strims after the stressful event they will come down with the migraine, red wine, cheeses, deli meats, all the good stuff but if you know that is a particular trigger, obviously you want to avoid those things. >> is anyone in particular at risk for migraines? >> women suffer them three times more often than men. if you are a woman who suffers classic migraines and over age 35 you should not be on hormonal contraception, the pill. very important to talk to your doctor about. >> up next, more of "the early show" on cbs, including an exclusive with president jimmy carter. we'll be right back. all over -- sglorns "cbs healthwatch"

8:10 am
week. he's at a habitat for humanity construction site in washington, d.c. plcht president, happy birthday and good morning. >> well, thank you. >> first off, how are you feeling? >> i feel fine. i only had one day of intensive hospital care and i've been out working ever since. so, it was just a brief bout with a virus. >> all right. lettes talk about your work with habitat for humanity. this problem of homelessness and not having enough housing is no less significant than it was when you started your work with this group 27 years ago. does it sometimes feel like you are trying to push a boulder up a mountain? >> well, we've gotten the united nations to join in. this is declared world habitat day. and that's the reason we started this new project in washington. i'll be going from here to namz then to st. paul and minneapolis then down to birmingham, alabama this week. so, habitat is building a new
8:11 am
house for people every 28 minutes now somewhere in the world so we are making a lot of progress but obviously want everybody to know still many people are homeless and many people that have insufficient homes. >> i wonder, with this housing crisis in the united states, there's so much stock on the market now, has that created an opportunity for habitat? >> yeah. in fact, this last year, we shifted our emphasis from building new homes to taking homes that are empty or abandoned, refur being them and moving families into them. so, this is a very cost-saving effect and we have increased that about five-fold over what habitat's done in the past so we are rehabilitating communities now putting empty homes back in use and filling them up with very eager families to have a good house. >> i remember being at a habitat site with you in houston ten years ago or so. it was 100 degrees outside. >> i remember. >> and were you still very active with a hammer and saw.
8:12 am
are you still handy? >> absolutely. in fact, the rest of this week, i'll be building homes or refurbing homes in six different cities. we do this every year. this is our 27 thez year. last year, we went to the mingonk river delta area in asia. we go one year in the united states, that's this year and then one year overseas. >> i want to switch subjects here, lots to talk about with you this morning, including the middle east peace process. it looks as if talks are going to break off now. the palestinians have had an opportunity to meet after settlements rebuilding started again and they say, we're not going to talk as long as these settlements are going to be constructed. is there any way that you see to break forward to -- to get through this stalemate? >> well, the key thing for israel to give up its ambition to occupy and control palestine and as long as they are still building israeli homes in
8:13 am
palestine, against the wishes of palestinian people that makes it very difficult for the palestinians or the world to comply with the desires of the united states and that is to have peace. but, it's always better, when you look at the middle east, to have some hope and i don't think we could have any better interlocutor or mediator than hillary clinton who is tough, competent, knowledgeable, intejen and i think very determined to be successful. so, if anybody can do it, i think hillary clinton can do it. >> prime minister netanyahu had said to the palestinians even those this building has resumed, please stay with this process. is there any compelling argument that could be made to the palestinians to continue on? >> well, i think if there's an assurance that israel will get out of palestine and let the palestinians have their own viable and contiguous nation, fine. butting, in addition to building the homes, israel is insisting they still remain occupying the
8:14 am
jordan river valley and controlling palestine from air and ocean and land so that the palestinians don't have any access to the outside world. so, this is a major obstacle to overcome and i hope that there will be some flexibility on both sides to let the united states mediation prevail. >> i want to talk politics for a couple minutes here very quickly. >> okay. >> some people have said president obama's several years in office now is somewhat resembling your time in office. if he were to call you and say, all right, in the next two years, this is what i've got to face, this is what i need to do, what advice would you give him? >> well, when i was in office at this time, i had a 66% favorable rating and we had a very successful midterm election. but, he is faced with an obstacle that i didn't have and that almost complete polarization and absence of any cooperation from the republican party. i had very good bipartisan support. so, i think that he needs to concentrate in the next two years, i'm sure he will, anyway,
8:15 am
on the economic system. he's gotten some very wonderful achievements so far but what people are interested in is more jobs and i think he's going to do that and maybe after the election is over, i don't think the democrats are going to have a very good success in a couple of weeks but after that's over, he'll still be president for two years and i think he'll have a much more forceful presentation now than he's got, you know, a clearer picture of what the situation will be and i believe he'll be successful. >> mr. president, we thank you so much for your time today. a lot of people around the world very much appreciative of your and rosa dz lynn's work with habitat for humanity. don't work too hard this week. >> we have a very good time, a very exciting project for us and we are gratified to have this opportunity. >> thank you, mr. president. up next, patrick warburton talks about his "rules of engagement" and with his real family, as well. they are both pretty funny. we'll be right back. you are watching "the early show" on cbs.

8:33 am
>> good morning. >> first things first before we talk about different roles for males and females for, this how important it is to have the talk and ton have the talk. >> absolutely. were he have so much research that supports the fact starting it early and having it continuously protects all our kids, daughters and sons, from making bad decisions in relationships, sexually, posting inappropriate pictures, sexting all that stuff has to start as early as your kids start talking to you about it. >> what you just said really illustrates the difference between the talk perhaps when i was a young man versus the conversations we need to be having with our adolescents now. >> right. you didn't have this real exhibitionist kind of culture we have now where we are putting really inappropriate things, our kids are putting inappropriate things, pictures on facebook, sending them to one another and go viral. >> not giving a second thought bit. >> not thinking about that at all. it has to be included in the big fer picture. >> how does the new study break grown in terms of the assumptions we have long held about roles, as far as
8:34 am
male/female roles and fathers and daughters and fathers and sons and mothers and daughters and sons? >> the talk in and of itself is a protective factor. what the girls really reported was that having their dads more involved teaches them what to look for more appropriate in a relationship so they are going to have better communication with men, have better trust in men because their dads are part of teaching them kind of what a caring man looks like and can be a dad or father figure, a strong male influence to be that person, to teach them how to say no if they want to say no. how to set limits when they want to set limits and do it comfortably. >> was there an actual direct correlation then between the young women who had conversations with either their fathers or step-fathers or significant male in their life and the kinds of behaviors they engaged in? >> it definitely decreased any sort of sexual acting out, risky behaviors, they used contraception more, they were able to stand their ground and set limits more effectively. so, it did have a direct correlation to their actual
8:35 am
behaviors and it actually opened up their ability to just talk about sex with their partners, which so many young women do not do at all. >> how, then, do you get fathers who traditionally back off of this role, you know, this is pillow talk, honey, i think it's time you had that talk with, you know, janie down there and see she's going into sixth grade, whatever it, is that's how that works. >> right. >> how would you suggest trying to change that paradigm a bit? >> i think it it is really important for fathers to be able to just be in the pomt with their daughters. it's so important for moms to be able to say to them, hey, you need to talk with them about this and create opportunities and there's three really important things dads can do. the first thing they need to do is just listen. listen to what your daughters are saying. listen to how they are talking about themselves. listen to what they're saying about their lives. and get involved in that. which is our second tip. talk to them, get involved. be involved in their school, be involved in their extracurriculars, be around and available as much as you can.
8:36 am
and lastly, you really want to teach and model respect to your daughter. what is does that look like between you and with other people in their lives? so that they feel that internally and can put that to use in any relationship they have. >> it is interesting. as i get older, in teen-age years want to grant them more independence and some of that you certainly want to do but at the same time there come all kinds of opportunities, i find driving is especially if there are several kids in the car, the stuff they talk about is revelatory. >> absolutely. you want it kind of be a fly on the wall but be involved at the same time. so, you want to just be a present presence all the time essentially so that they know you're there and you're listening and they're not afraid to share with you when you need to. >> the real bottom line in the whole thing is fathers need to really get involved with the young women in their lives. >> as much a protective factor if not more in many ways and their involvement is really underestimated. is, the more involved they are, the better off they set their daughters laurt. >> jennifer hartstein, thanks so much. >> thanks.
8:37 am

8:38 am
>> whether marc by marc jacobs or fendi, a very uniformed look, double-breasted, lots of military influences with buttons and zep pers and army green. but on miranda going with a softer flare. this jacket is a card gan jacket military inspired. underneath a nice anne taylor lot of striped shirt. you may actually have one from summer you can repurpose po this look. believe it or not, it is $45. a fitted jean by levi, for $22 and finished with flats from payless. she could easily wear them with the cropped pants or switch our neutral or nude pumps and move from daytime to evening. >> you think military inspired and start to think cargos. this is especially with the navy a different take. >> she could switch in trousers and make it workplace appropriate, as well. >> first look is military inspired.
8:39 am
