This groundbreaking book argues that adolescence is an unnecessary period of life that people are better off without. Robert Epstein, former editorinchief of Psychology Today, shows that teen turmoil is caused by outmoded systems put in place a century ago which destroyed the continuum between childhood and adulthood. Where this continuum still exists in other countries, there is no adolescence. Isolated from adults, American teens learn everything they know from their media-dominated peersthe last people on earth they should be learning from, says Epstein. Epstein explains that our teens are highly capablein some ways more capable than adultsand argues strongly against infantilizing young people. We must rediscover the adult in every teen, he says, by giving young people adult authority and responsibility as soon as they can demonstrate readiness.This landmark book will change the thinking about teens for decades to come.
