Download Hold On to Your Kids: Why Parents Need to Matter More Than Peers AudioBook Free
Like many other parents, doctors Gordon Neufeld and Gabor Maté experienced to confront their children becoming secretive and unreachable. Centered increasingly more on their friends, they recoiled or grew hostile around individuals. Why? The problem, Neufeld suggest, lies in attachment; children are progressively forming stronger attachments to their friends than to the individuals in their lives. Dr. Neufeld has dubbed this phenomenon peer orientation, which refers to the propensity of children and junior to look to their peers for course: for a feeling of right and incorrect, for values, identification and codes of behaviour. This peer orientation undermines family cohesion, poisons the school atmosphere, and fosters an aggressively hostile and sexualized junior culture. It provides a powerful description for schoolyard bullying and junior violence; its effects are painfully visible in the context of teen gangs and legal activity, in tragedies such such as Littleton, Colorado; Tabor, Alberta; and Victoria, B.C. It really is an escalating trend that has never been adequately detailed or contested until Keep To Your Kids.
