About this audiobook
Psychologist Madeline Levine, author of the New York Times bestseller The Price of Privilege, brings together cutting-edge research and thirty years of clinical experience to explode once and for all the myth that good grades, high test scores, and college acceptances should define the parenting endgame.
Teach Your Children Well is a toolbox for parents, providing information, relevant research and a series of exercises to help parents clarify a definition of success that is in line with their own values as well as their children’s interests and abilities. Teach Your Children Well is a must-read for parents, educators, and therapists looking for tangible tools to help kids thrive in today’s high-stakes, competitive culture.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5As author Madeline Levine asserts at the beginning of Teach Your Children Well, this book aims to strike a balance between the extreme parenting styles du jour that the media is in love with lately. Micro-managing is not the answer, but neither is being more best friend than parent.
