The Overparenting Epidemic: Why Helicopter Parenting Is Bad for Your Kids . . .

Description: The Overparenting Epidemic by David Tabatsky, George S. Glass Helicopter parents, tiger moms, cosseters, hothouse parents . . . Whatever we label it, "overparenting"--anxious, invasive, overly attentive, and competitive parenting--may have finally backfired. As we witness the first generation of overparented children becoming adults in their own right, many studies show that when baby boomer parents intervene inappropriately--with too much advice, excessive favors, and erasing obstacles that kids should negotiate themselves--their "millennial" children end up ill-behaved, anxious, narcissistic, entitled youths unable to cope with everyday life.

Whatever we label it, overparenting --anxious, invasive, overly attentive, and competitive parenting--may have finally backfired. As we witness the first generation of overparented children becoming adults in their own right, many studies show that when baby boomer parents intervene inappropriately--with too much advice, excessive favors, and erasing obstacles that kids should negotiate themselves--their "millennial" children end up ill-behaved, anxious, narcissistic, entitled youths unable to cope with everyday life. The obsession with providing everything a child could possibly need, from macrobiotic cupcakes to 24/7 tutors, has created epidemic levels of depression and stress in our countrys youth, but this can be avoided if parents would just take a giant step back, check their ambitions at the door, and do whats really best for their kids. Written by a noted psychiatrist and a parenting specialist, The Overparenting Epidemic is a science-based yet humorous and practical book that features an easy-to-read menu of pragmatic, reasonable advice for how to parent children effectively and lovingly without overdoing it, especially in the context of todays demanding world.
