A szülők nem igazán segítenek azzal, ha magas követelményeket támasztanak gyermekeik iránt, és életük minden mozzanatát irányítani próbálják. Legalábbis ezt állítja Julie Lythcott–Haims. A Stanford Egyetem egykori dékánja szenvedélyesen és fanyar humorral amellett foglal állást, hogy a szülők ne a jegyek és vizsgaeredmények alapján mérjék gyermekük sikerét. Inkább a legősibb módszert kellene elsajátítaniuk: a feltétlen szeretetet.

About the speaker
Julie Lythcott-Haims speaks and writes on the phenomenon of helicopter parenting and the dangers of a checklisted childhood -- the subject of her book, "How to Raise an Adult."
Frank Bruni | Grand Central Publishing, 2016 | Book
The 'Top 20 Colleges' mindset has many of us in a stranglehold; Bruni walks us through the evidence that you don't have to attend a big brand name school in order to be successful and happy.
Gregg Easterbrook | Brookings Institute, 2004 | Article
Lovely summation of the evidence that a couple hundred colleges and universities can be considered "top" in a country that has 2,800 accredited 4-year schools, and that success in life comes not from the brand name of the college you attend but from how you behave when you get to college.
Malcolm Gladwell | Back Bay Books, 2015 | Book
On the value of going to a school one tier lower than the so-called 'best' you got into: being a big fish in a small pond.
Loren Pope | Penguin Books, 2012 | Book
Many of us don't intrinsically understand what makes a college experience valuable and worth the investment, so we tend to rely on Top 20 lists. Pope — the former Education editor at the New York Times — conducted extensive research into what makes a college experience truly life-changing for students. This book is a summary of Pope's conclusions, with profiles of forty small colleges whose alumni uniformly say 'This place changed my life.'

If you must look at a college rankings book, then this is the one I recommend. Designed as an unbiased assessment of how alumni have fared in the world — from finances and net worth to happiness, friendships, and intellectual engagement — as well aggregating alumni views on political and social issues, The Alumni Factor yields far greater insight the community of people who attend a particular college, what they care about, and who they become.

Research from Professor Marilynn "Marty" Rossman at the University of Minnesota also makes the case for chores. Rossman's research was based on longitudinal studies conducted by Professor Diana Baumrind at the University of California-Berkeley, and specifically found that people who are most "successful" (defined as not using drugs, having quality relationships, finishing education and getting started in a career) began doing chores at three to four years of age, whereas those who waited until their teen years to start doing chores were comparatively less successful.
Richard Rende | TarcherPerigee, 2016 | Book
Professor Richard Rende of Brown University writes about the academic and social benefits of doing chores.
Edward M. Hallowell | Ballantine Books, 2002 | Book
Professor Edward “Ned” Hallowell at Harvard University also describes the value of chores or ‘industriousness in childhood’ as predictors of success in the workplace and well-being.
Denise Pope, Maureen Brown and Sarah Miles | Jossey-Bass, 2015 | Book
