The collapse of parenting : how we hurt our kids when we treat them like grown-ups : the three things you must do to help your child or teen become a fulfilled adult / Leonard Sax, M.D., Ph.D.
Leonard Sax argues that rising levels of obesity, depression, and anxiety among young people - as well as parents' dependence on psychiatric medications to fix such problems - can all be traced back to parents who let their kids call the shots. Drawing on twenty-five years of experience as a family psychologist, along with hundreds of interviews with children, parents, and teachers, Sax offers an urgent argument for why parents need to rethink their relationships with their children if they are to thrive in an increasingly complicated world.
