Why Worry?


In 2004, Perri Klass and Eileen Costello published a guide for helping parents recognize when it it time to worry about a kid who doesn't fit in.

This is odd to me. The cover has uniformed kids in sneakers and one in yellow, polka dotted sneakers. Is there something wrong with this?

Why aren't there texts written about helping parents to know when their kids are becoming obsessively normal and mainstream: books warning against the rule of lemmings and conformity.

I find the whole idea of this text whimsical and if you haven't bought me a birthday present yet, you can get a copy for $5 on Amazon.
