The Consequences of Being a “Hurried Child”
Today we talk with Dr. David Elkind, author of the block buster best-seller The Hurried Child, about what happens when we push our kids to grow up too fast. Twenty-five years after the release of the book, the trend may be worse than ever. How can we give childhood back to our kids? I also talk to Dr. Bennett Leventhal from the University of Illinois Chicago who sheds light on the news that pediatric suicides are on the rise after years of having leveled off.
