America is ripe for a book like Chicken Parents Chicken Schools: Reclaiming Your Influence and Authority. It taps into a growing discomfort with the results of current childrearing philosophies: too many young people who are egocentric, spoiled, and unprepared for productive adulthood; too many parents who feel their children are running their families; and too few teachers believing they have the power to substantially impact their students' lives. Chicken Parents Chicken Schools presents a revolutionary, yet infinitely practical, approach to the parenting and education of children. It challenges many of the counterproductive parenting and education philosophies that have been perpetuated over the last several decades and illustrates the negative impacts of these misguided practices on young people, their families, and our society. Teachers and parents will learn commonsense, practical strategies for reclaiming their powerful influence on the healthy development of the young people in their care.
