A Nation of Wimps
It talks about various (bad) parenting habits that can adversely affect your children even though it seems like you're doing them favors. I think being members of the Church helps us avoid these things, but it's really interesting to see what psychologists are saying about the problems post-adolescents are facing, and how parenting behaviors have affected young adult's performance in college.

Thanks for giving me something to read:) I really liked your last post too but I couldn't get it to let me leave a comment.
That was an interesting article. I think it generalizes a little too much, applying their conclusions to 100 percent of the poplulation, but it does make some good points. At least now I don't feel guilty for watching my children play on the playground instead of playing with them.
Yeah, it has some huge generalizations. The parts about the cell phones making kids more dependent on their parents was interesting...
I thought it was good to. The whole time I was thinking, am I one of these type of kids, but I'm pretty sure I'm not.
