Collapse of Parenting

Collapse of Parenting

by Leonard Sax

Basic Books · 2024 · 384 pages

In this urgent call to action, Dr. Leonard Sax argues that the epidemic of anxiety and depression in young people stems from parents over-accommodating their children and ceding authority. He contends that by treating kids like peers and allowing them to dictate rules, we inadvertently foster a lack of self-discipline and an over-reliance on external validation. This updated edition offers practical strategies for parents to reclaim their role, set boundaries, and guide their children toward genuine well-being and resilience in a challenging modern world.
