Kids These Days is a must-read book and protest against harmful mental health treatments for children and youth. -PARIS HILTON, global advocate for institutional reform and founder of 11:11 Media

Anxiety, depression, self-harm, and teen suicide are rising sharply-youth mental health issues have increased over 60% in the past decade. In Kids These Days, experts Will Dobud, PhD and Nevin Harper, PhD reveal why today's kids are struggling and what adults must do differently. Endorsed by Paris Hilton, Dr. Bruce D. Perry, and Alex Hutchinson, this research-based guide delivers practical strategies for building resilience, connection, and autonomy in the next generation.

What You'll Learn

Why anxiety, depression, and behavioral challenges are symptoms, not root causes How overprotection, screen time, disconnection, and adult interference affect youth mental health Insights from 20+ years of clinical experience and adolescent psychology for raising emotionally resilient teens Why traditional talk therapy, diagnoses, and medication often miss the mark How to build trust, connection, and autonomy with kids-even in crisis

Why This Book Stands Out

Written by practitioners with decades of experience in outdoor therapy, youth work, and trauma-informed care Grounded in research and filled with expert insights from parenting and psychology professionals Offers practical strategies parents, educators, and youth mentors can apply immediately A refreshing alternative to books that pathologize or try to "fix" kids

Endorsed by Leading Voices

"This is a crucial read for anyone living or working with children and youth. Highly recommended." - Dr. Bruce D. Perry, co-author of What Happened to You?

Endure

Perfect for readers of The Anxious Generation, Hold On to Your Kids, and Free-Range Kids. Whether you're a parent, teacher, youth worker, or therapist, Kids These Days will change how you see the next generation-and your role in helping them thrive.
