Under Pressure: Putting the Child Back in Childhood

Description

Using fascinating anecdotes about obsessive parents (including one about the father of a tennis player who drugged all his child's opponents), solid research and personal insight, Honor explains the over-parenting phenomenon, dispels myths and rallies for change in clear and persuasive prose. Topics explored include the use of technology as babysitting, how enrolling children in hours of extra-curriculars every week can do more harm than good and how we underestimate the resilience of our children at the expense of their freedom.
