not to, not to take much longer on that, i think i agree with gretchen. you know, why couldn't you have just added one paragraph that, essentially, said any institution that has to rely on extraordinary government asset purchases, debt guarantees or more than 60 days at the window will have its senior management and officers removed at the earliest convenience of the board and barred from from employment as a regulated entity for a period of five years. if you did that, these companies would shrink to the point where they could manage risk or spend money to the point where they ameliorated those concerns. we didn't want to do that, there's a reason for that. and legislators did a great job of doing everything but legislating because they did leave everything to the regulators to define. >> and you had asked about heros. we had heros. there were some folks at the cbo, we have a wonderful vignette where they came up against fannie mae in 1995 when they were part of the congressional, part of the congress act in be '32 which was the safety and soundness act

. >> gretchen, what can be done to prevent these issues with middle-aged women? >> i don't know. i wish i was a doctor. but i don't know what can be done to prevent it. but i think there is something that shows what is going on with our society. those hospitals for depression has increased by 40% in 10 years. americans are more depressed than ever. for the first time in generations, americans do not believe their children will be better off than they are. i think this is just speaks to where this nation is right now. we have gone through a economic crisis. we have been at war and we are tired and we are weary and we are down. >> i'm not going to have a little more optimistic notion. i agree but i wonder if women will be less likely to fall into this middle-aged depression. if your life has been tied to your children and to your household and then there comes the empty nest along with menopause. the notion of worthiness comes into play. it seems to me now with the average woman working full-time, these women having had two lives, got rid of one, said to the kids, bye-bye, now i ha

when i look at the work that gretchen bender did, i think there was something very inspired.eeling something. i don't know if it all works, but it works well enough that i stand by it. it was a piece the time needed. and for those who have not seen it, they incorporated video of--of people-- survival workshops with-- that were people living with or having lived with a life-threatening illness. and in those workshops, i asked them to draw their lives on a piece of paper. it was an abstract squiggle. and then walk it. i asked them to make gestures that said how they felt about their lives. we gathered these gestures: almost, oh, a hundred and some of them. and then we learned them-- the dancers in the company. and dancers, professional dancers, learned these gestures, transformed them by putting movements in the lower boy with them so it became dance. and then we made this thing-- music by ken frazelle-- where he just took testimonies alone on a park bench. i just sat there; i couldn't listen. you know, sort of trying to get at those moments when people were having a revelation

and my final question for you, gretchen, what do you think this does to a student/teacher relationship, if they're not grading your homework, how much interaction do you have the with the teacher, other than the interaction in the classroom with the 20 other kids. >> i think this limits the student/teacher classroom and they're not learning what they're doing right and wrong at the own piece of homework the a home and also life lessens, and i know i said this earlier and i take issue with her saying 10% only for homework. there needs to be this learning period in life, especially in middle school and high school that you have to learn about work balance, life balance, respnsability balances, and how you have to take care of all of those things. i think in high school and junior high, where homework is a big part of that, and you're being held accountable at class, but also being held accountable by other people it's an important time to learn to, and i just think that what they're doing in california is not help these kids for the long term. >> my fear would be as a parent, is just to
