Let’s discuss: "The Anxious Generation" by Jonathan Haidt

Details

Why are today’s kids more anxious, depressed, and glued to their screens than ever before? And why are we—well-meaning grown-ups—so bad at fixing it?

Join us this month as we dive into "The Anxious Generation" by Jonathan Haidt, a sharp, provocative look at how smartphones, social media, and bubble-wrapped childhoods have rewired an entire generation’s brains.

This is the book that has parents sweating, teachers nodding furiously, and Gen Z feeling both exposed and reluctantly understood. Whether you’re a tech optimist, a cautious curmudgeon, or someone who just wants to understand what the heck happened to adolescence, this is one you won’t want to miss.
