book: Coddling of the American Mind

 The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas Are Setting Up a Generation for Failure: Lukianoff, Greg, Haidt, Jonathan: 9780735224919: Amazon.com: Books

"First Amendment expert Greg Lukianoff and social psychologist Jonathan Haidt, author of The Anxious Generation, show how the new problems on campus have their origins in 

three terrible ideas that have become increasingly
woven into American childhood and education: 
  • What doesn’t kill you makes you weaker
  • always trust your feelings; and
  • life is a battle between good people and evil people. 
These three Great Untruths contradict basic psychological principles about well-being and ancient wisdom from many cultures. Embracing these untruths—and the resulting culture of safetyism—interferes with young people’s social, emotional, and intellectual development. It makes it harder for them to become autonomous adults who are able to navigate the bumpy road of life."

argue that overprotection is harming university students and
that the use of trigger warnings and safe spaces does more harm than good.


Your worst enemy cannot harm you as much as your own thoughts, guarded.
But once mastered, no one can help you as much, not even your father or your mother.
