    Summary: 
    "This parenting classic on one of the most disturbing and misunderstood trends of our time -- peers replacing parents in the lives of children -- is now more relevant than ever. The latest edition includes new material on how social media and video game culture are affecting our children, and what parents can do. The authors explore the phenomenon of peer orientation: the troubling tendency of children and youth to look to their peers for direction -- for a sense of right and wrong, for values, identity and codes of behaviour. But peer orientation undermines family cohesion, poisons the school atmosphere, and fosters an aggressively hostile and sexualized youth culture. It provides a powerful explanation for schoolyard bullying and youth violence; it is an escalating trend that has never been adequately described or contested until this book. Once understood, it becomes self-evident -- as do the solutions"--Provided by publisher.
