PDF/READ The Myth of the Spoiled Child: Challenging the Conventional Wisdom about Children and Parenting
COPY LINK: https://pdf.bookcenterapp.com/yumpu/B00J5L4F42 Somehow, deeply conservative assumptions about how children behave and how parents raise them have become the conventional wisdom in our society. It's widely assumed that parents are both permissive and overprotective, unable to set limits and afraid to let their kids fail. We're told that young people receive trophies, praise, and A's too easily, and suffer from inflated self-esteem and insufficient self-discipline. However, complaints about pushover parents and entitled kids are actually decades old and driven, it turns out, by ideology more than evidence. With the same lively, contrarian style of Alfie Kohn's best-selling books about rewards, competition, and traditional education, The Myth of the Spoiled Child systematically debunks the story that we hear with numbing regularity. Kohn uses humor, logic, and his familiarity with a vast range of social science data to challenge media-stoked fears of spoiling our children. He reveals that the major threat to healthy child development isn't parents who are too indulgent but those who are too controlling.

DESCRIPTION
COPY LINK: https://pdf.bookcenterapp.com/yumpu/B00J5L4F42 Somehow, deeply conservative
assumptions about how children behave and how parents raise them have become the
conventional wisdom in our society. It's widely assumed that parents are both permissive and
overprotective, unable to set limits and afraid to let their kids fail. We're told that young people
receive trophies, praise, and A's too easily, and suffer from inflated self-esteem and insufficient
self-discipline. However, complaints about pushover parents and entitled kids are actually decades
old and driven, it turns out, by ideology more than evidence. With the same lively, contrarian style
of Alfie Kohn's best-selling books about rewards, competition, and traditional education, The Myth
of the Spoiled Child systematically debunks the story that we hear with numbing regularity. Kohn
uses humor, logic, and his familiarity with a vast range of social science data to challenge mediastoked
fears of spoiling our children. He reveals that the major threat to healthy child development
isn't parents who are too indulgent but those who are too controlling.
