From Library Journal

A family counselor since 1977, Ellis has seen a strong correlation between overindulgent parents and irresponsible, dependent children. Here she presents a thorough guide on the topic, combining anecdotes, discussion of research, and practical advice to prevent or reverse overindulgence and its effects. Ellis describes the social mores and typical personal profile that often lead to overindulgent child rearing. She discusses by age group (preschool through young adult) what levels of maturity and responsibility can be expected and provides checklists to aid in identifying parental overindulgence and underdeveloped child responsibility. She also discusses reasonable parental approaches to the problems experienced by children in each age group. An appendix lists suggested children's reading materials. This excellent treatment of an important topic is recommended for parents, counselors, and public and academic libraries.?Carol R. Nelson, Ball State Univ. Lib., Muncie, Ind.
