What's here is excellent, what mssing is dangerous
Loved the book... tempted to give it 5-stars.

THIS REVIEW IS ON THE UNCORRECTED PROOF.

This book is going to be controversial.. For instance Dr. Jensen wants to break stereo types but tends to reinforce them (e.g. girls are more susceptible to the effects of alcohol, more susceptible to concussions, and lose higher math and science interest/abilities as they age).

There are two glaring issues with this book.

First she tends to guess... a lot. The language used in these guesses is subtle but still there (from an academic point of view).

There are lots of practical tips, interviews, and stories from families that have tried different methods to make your kids
value work and spend their money wisely. For example, the author gives an example of one family that calculates the most fun per dollar spent on their recreation. The whole family gets together and discusses what's the best use of their money.

Ron notes that spoiled kids have four things in common. First, they don't have many chores; second they don't have any rules; thirdly they have lots of free time assistance; and fourthly, they have a lot of stuff.

Here are some other great ideas:
