About this product

Product Information

In this New York Times bestseller, one of America's premier child psychologists offers a must-read account of the dismal state of parenting today, and a vision for how we can better prepare our children for the challenges of the adult world In The Collapse of Parenting , internationally acclaimed author Leonard Sax argues that rising levels of obesity, depression, and anxiety among young people can be traced to parents abdicating their authority. The result is children who have no standard of right and wrong, who lack discipline, and who look to their peers and the Internet for direction. Sax shows how parents must reassert their authority - by limiting time with screens, by encouraging better habits at the dinner table, and by teaching humility and perspective - to renew their relationships with their children. Drawing on nearly thirty years of experience as a family physician and psychologist, along with hundreds of interviews with children, parents, and teachers, Sax offers a blueprint parents can use to help their children thrive in an increasingly complicated world.

" The Collapse of Parenting is one of the best books I've ever read on the subject of raising children. It's not written from a religious perspective, but it's chock-full of information every parent should have."-- National CatholicRegister, New York Journal of Books "If you're going to read one book on parenting this year, make it The Collapse of Parenting by Leonard Sax. What makes a good nonfiction instructional book is an author who has extensive real world experience in the subject matter and who has the ability to write clearly. Leonard Sax has both.... This is quite simply a good book that is easily read and will provide sound advice for giving our children the best chance to succeed in life.", "Thefamily unit is in unprecedented decline and under assault from a wide varietyof cultural forces. With years of experience and research working directly withparents and children, Dr. Leonard Sax provides an important glimpse intoparenting in modern times, where it's gone wrong, and how to fix it. Being aparent has never been more important and Dr. Sax explains how to avoidparenting pitfalls and raise your children well."-- Dr. Bill Bennett, former United States Secretary of Education, "Itis time for us to get real as a society. Dr. Leonard Sax has issued both awarning and an encouragement for parents to take up their proper roles inleading their children to a truly mature adulthood. His book is a highlyreadable and well-informed challenge for us."-- Dr. Timothy Wright, Headmaster, Shore School, Sydney(Australia), "Dr. Leonard Sax's The Collapse of Parenting should be required reading for all parents."-- Dr. Nancy Kehoe,author of Wrestling with Our Inner Angels, " The Collapse of Parenting may sound like a lone voice in the world of American parenting these days, but it's a desperately needed one.... If you're going to read a single parenting book this year, please make it this one."-- Treehugger.com, "Basedon years of extensive clinical practice and interviews with students andparents internationally, Sax presents a sobering and alarming picture of thecollapse of parenting in this country. But he does not leave the reader withouthope; he offers simple, if not easy solutions, giving parents an accessibleguide to help them regain their rightful roles."-- Dr. Nancy Kehoe, assistant clinical professor of psychology atHarvard Medical School, and author of Wrestling with Our Inner Angels:Faith, Mental Illness and the Journey to Wholeness, "[Sax is] sounding some alarms that we'd do wellto heed, and for our kids' sakes, I think sooner is better than later."-- Chicago Tribune, "Acomprehensive breakdown of where parents have gone awry and how they can getback on track to teach virtue and character to their children."-- Kirkus, "If you're going to read one book on parenting this year, make it The Collapse of Parenting by Leonard Sax."-- New York Journal of Books
