I suppose it comes naturally to us to talk too much.Â  When we tell our kids &#8220;NO&#8221; to having a cookie right before dinner and they begin to whine,Â we feel compelled to explain to them why they can&#8217;t have a cookie. When they continue to whine, we escalate our volume [...]]]></description>

		<itunes:summary>There's something wrong with the way American kids are being raised today. 

Dr. Anne Pierce in her book Ships Without a Shore: America's Undernurtured Children challenges commonly accepted notions about parenting such as nannys and daycare workers, hyper-structuring, and how Baby Boomers have affected the way we raise our children.

Dr. Pierce gives us good insights to help us identify what makes a good parent, and how we can be more effective parents.

Out of frustration, we often say things we don&#8217;t mean. But once the words are out, you can&#8217;t take them back.
