This book has resonated in affluent communities all over the country. [Levine is] clearly on to something., "Useful...clear, sensitive..." -- Publisher's Weekly "In this insightful book, Levine eschews the temptation to dismiss problems of privileged teens as overindulgence." -- Book List "[Written] with clarity and understanding of the culture of affluence and its pitfalls for parents." -- Library Journal "Fresh and important ideas about parenting in the age of affluence..." -- Mary Pipher, Ph.D., author of Reviving Ophelia "Levine offers chapter after chapter of practical advice for dealing with family problems." -- Connecticut Post Online "[Madeline Levine's] ideas may be uncomfortable for parents to read, but they're a wonderful wake-up call." -- Bay Area Insider "Levine's book explores some troubling and intriguing issues that certainly are worth pondering and discussing." -- Marin Independent Journal "She treats her subjects as well as her subject with compassion and understanding." -- Chicago Tribune "...[an] impassioned wake-up call to parents..." -- The Gazette (Montreal) "This book has resonated in affluent communities all over the country. [Levine is] clearly on to something." -- Atlanta Journal-Constitution "Her writing is warm and carefully thoughtful." -- Toronto Star, [Written] with clarity and understanding of the culture of affluence and its pitfalls for parents., 'At first glance, The Price of Privilege might seem like just another book for the growing pile on parenting geared toward the affluent. It's not. Instead, clinical psychologist Madeline Levine has written an insightful and helpful book about raising teens that applies to a vast swath of'middle- to upper-middle-class families with two working parents who want the best for their kids in a super-competitive society. Not only does Levine detail where we slip up, but she has sound advice from her 25 years counseling both teens and parents and from nationwide data that reveal how parenting styles can be amended so we raise happy kids instead. When the book comes out at the beginning of July, it should be on every parent's summer reading list.' (San Francisco Chronicle Magazine), In this insightful book, Levine eschews the temptation to dismiss problems of privileged teens as overindulgence., [Madeline Levine's] ideas may be uncomfortable for parents to read, but they're a wonderful wake-up call., Levine's book explores some troubling and intriguing issues that certainly are worth pondering and discussing.

Synopsis
In recent years, numerous studies have shown that bright, charming, seemingly confident and socially skilled teenagers from affluent, loving families are experiencing epidemic rates of depression, substance abuse, and anxiety disorders-rates higher than in any other socioeconomic group of American adolescents. Materialism, pressure to achieve, perfectionism, and disconnection are combining to create a perfect storm that is devastating children of privilege and their parents alike. In this eye-opening, provocative, and essential book, clinical psychologist Madeline Levine explodes one child-rearing myth after another. With empathy and candor, she identifies toxic cultural influences and well-intentioned, but misguided, parenting practices that are detrimental to a child's healthy self-development. Her thoughtful, practical advice provides solutions that will enable parents to help their emotionally troubled "star" child cultivate an authentic sense of self., In this ground-breaking book on the children of affluence, a well-known clinical psychologist exposes the epidemic of emotional problems that are disabling America's privileged youth, thanks, in large part, to normalized, intrusive parenting that stunts the crucial development of the self.
