Product Description
Hold On to Your Kids — This parenting classic is as relevant today as ever, shedding light on how peer influence, amplified by social media and video game culture, is replacing parents in children’s lives — now featuring a new chapter.
WINNER OF THE NATIONAL PARENTING PUBLICATIONS GOLD AWARD • “A worthy book that brings us genuinely new ideas and fresh perspectives on parenting.” — Mary Pipher, Ph.D., author of Reviving Ophelia
Children today often take their cues from peers — being “cool” matters more than connection. Peer groups increasingly shape values, identity, and behavior, often more powerfully than parents. This shift undermines family bonds, disrupts healthy development, and fuels anxiety and alienation among youth.
In Hold On to Your Kids, bestselling author Dr. Gabor Maté and psychologist Dr. Gordon Neufeld uncover the roots of this disconnection and provide practical strategies for parents to “reattach” and reclaim their vital role in their children’s lives.
By reawakening natural parental instincts, Neufeld and Maté empower parents to become the secure, enriching, and loving guides their children truly need.
