  • Summary

  • Jonathan Haidt's The Anxious Generation examines the link between technology, parenting styles, and rising mental health issues in young people. The book argues that overprotective parenting and constant digital connectivity are "rewiring" childhood negatively. Haidt supports his claims with research and anecdotes, offering practical solutions. However, some critiques suggest the book is overly pessimistic and that the proposed solutions might not be universally applicable. Despite this, the book provides valuable insights into the complex relationship between technology, upbringing, and adolescent mental well-being.
