The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Caused an Epidemic of Mental Illness

Nothing new here but it confirms what we already know with the science to back it up. A life lived online leads to anxiety & depression. Of course it’s more nuanced than that. It starts in young children and I urge all parents to read this book. There are actionable steps to take to protect our children and it’s imperative that we do so.
A must read for parents, grandparents, and school officials.

Terrific review, Jan. I feel the same exact way and that is why I gave this book to my daughters who are new parents. Validation for what people in my age group already know. 🧡👍🏼
I really need to read this one. I always struggle to fit non-fiction into my reading schedule. Amazing review, Jan. 🧡
