The WEIRD Parenting Problem | Why Children Need More Than Self-Expression

Parents
“Find your unique truth!” sounds beautiful, but it’s actually quite WEIRD – Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, Democratic.

I grew up on the laps of Holocaust survivors, feeling I owed something to those who sacrificed before me. Was it sometimes heavy? Yes. But it gave me something priceless – knowing exactly who I am and where I belong.

Today’s young people aren’t shallow for collecting identity labels. They’re starving for the belonging we’ve stripped away.

Children need both freedom AND context – the chance to express themselves AND to feel part of something meaningful that existed before them and will continue after.
