Such a great read!
This book confirmed everything I see about today's society. Today's teenagers and young adults are very spoiled, expect things to come to them on a silver platter, and they don't think they should work hard to achieve anything in life. I'm a 26 year old woman and I see this behavior every day. This book was very easy to read, humorous, and I was suprised at some of the statistics. I would recommend this book to anyone and everyone. Maybe one day we can realize to achieve in life we must work hard.

very interesting
I totaly agree with the topic of children/education/and the lower expectations in today's schools. I have found my topic for my thesis.
This book is enlightening and hits the mark on so many subjects - Interesting and at times humorous, however, it is not a light read. This needs to be a topic that a person finds interesting in order to get through the entire book.1 out of 1 people found this review helpful.

i highly recommend this book--i use chapters in my classes and have great discussions on the issues the authors present with great clarity--my students as a whole agree with the points the authors make, especially the non-traditional ones who have children and have to raise them within this narcissistic society-- again i would highly recommend this book to everyone--it gives us a perspective of ourselves and our society that is not very pleasant but non-the-less true

What is wrong with the world?
I bought this book because it was referenced in The Atlantic Monthly earlier this spring, and it is one of the more unsettling books I have read in a while. It's not that what the authors said took me by surprise; on the contrary, what they said confirmed what I was afraid of but wouldn't have had the background to assert. In truth, parts of the book get a little repetitive, but it is well worth the read.
