Product Description
Think you’re doing your kids a favor telling them what perfect angels they are? Think again.
Former criminal prosecutor, mother and stepmother Loni Coombs has witnessed too many times the shockingly negative effects of what most parents feel to be the very best parenting techniques. They think, "I’ll give my children what I never had, I’ll pave their way to success, I’ll take care of their problems," and then they’re blindsided by their children’s utter helplessness when it comes to thriving in the real world, their inability to get and keep a job, even their unexpected run-ins with the law. What went wrong? This book solves the mystery.
In You’re Perfect… And Other Lies Parents Tell: The Ugly Truth About Spoiling Your Kids, Coombs delineates how modern parents are unwittingly raising entitled children who are ill-equipped to become productive, empathetic, law-abiding young adults. In short, the "cool" parents are raising "cold" kids.
"The ugly truth parents need to face is that telling your children that they are perfect and shielding them from the consequences of their actions while insisting that every child gets a first-place trophy is not good parenting," says Coombs. You’re Perfect…<?i> is the urgent wake-up call that the parents of the "Me Generation" so desperately need, and the easy-to-implement information within its pages could change the course of millions of young lives for the better.
