Description

In The Vanishing American Adult, Senator Ben Sasse explains ways to raise resilient and responsible children. He identifies core formative experiences that all young people should pursue:



  • Hard work to appreciate the benefits of labor

  • Travel to understand deprivation and want

  • The power of reading

  • The importance of nurturing your body


Parents can encourage these experiences to help their children become prepared for the highly-competitive global economy. Our democracy relies on responsible contributing adults to function properly. Without them, America falls prey to populist demagogues. The Vanishing American Adult calls to ignite a much-needed debate about the link between the way we're raising our children and the future of our country.
