Exactly.

Read a couple installments of the Rosemond column.

Easy peasy. Especially regarding the phones.

I read the latest two on his site. Let's just say I found it extremely unconvincing. Is there a particular one or something you can cite that you find particularly convincing? Or that rebutts my point that a restrictive environment poorly prepares a child for the unrestricted freedom of adulthood?

I mean, he provides no clear definition of what a successful child is, or successful parenting, or becoming a successful adult is. I don't think doubling down on an already extremely restrictive school system would help at all. Just more bewildered 18 year olds not knowing what to do with their life so following other people ideas.
