[quote=Anonymous]This show along with a number of books such a Judith Warner's Perfect Madness and the more recent All Joy, No Fun by Jennifer Senior seem consciously or not to be pushing against parents being so vested in our children's future. I have thought lot about this as I am dealing with my kid failing Algebra. At one level I want her to own the changes, turn in the homework dammit, study, put the ipod down. But as I push and push I realize she does not own the outcome. I do think our children will have to figure out how to redefine the parenting relationship, if only to have a way of rebelling against us. [/quote]
