Help your kids by not helping them so much.
Recommendation
Parents today are more fearful than ever about their children’s future. But what if their constant worry is hurting their kids more than helping them? Psychologist Madeline Levine warns that overprotection, intolerance of uncertainty and emphasizing achievements over human kindness puts kids’ mental health at risk. Though she wrote this book more for affluent parents than those worried about putting food on the table, Levine nonetheless reminds readers that to solve the kinds of problems they will face in the 21st century, all children need curiosity, a moral compass and a critical mind.
